Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! Windows 10 was once an Operating System that stood as the only real option for those who did heavy tasks such as gaming and content creation on their systems, but with some real competition in the land of Linux it's probably time you step away and use something that respects you for once. Thanks for watching!

“People who use Linux are the vegans of computers”. Why would you say something so hurtful and so incredibly accurate.
yeah, it hurts to progressists and Windows users that can't handle a central outage from USA. don't switch to Ubuntu or Fedora btw
I felt attacked with that single sentence
Except everyone doesn’t hate Linux users nor are they annoying, really..
@@yamomspotatosalad818 "boohoo one vegan person told me to become vegan so every other normal vegan is a fucking idiot!!"
@@Batyssss Relax
I cannot fathom why someone would bash an os for being “too easy.”
Making hard things easier is the entire reason I bought a computer. If I want things to be hard I can do basically anything a computer can do with an abacus and a stone chisel, and that stone slab is just as customizable as any Linux os if not more so. Being easy is the point.
Tbf, most of the criticisms of Ubuntu aren't because its too easy, but because of stuff like Canonical's obsession with Snaps and GNOME.
if you make something idiot-proof only idiots will use it. That's why.
@@bobbybologna3029 that’s just not true, but even if it was, how does that fact that something appeals to “idiots” make it any less appealing for you? The only reason I can fathom someone thinking “Ugh, people less smart than me use this thing, therefore I can’t use it.” Is pure elitism and nothing more.
@@Vgamer311 Usually those who know more get annoyed by idiot proof things because such things tent to limit their ability to do whatever they want with their software and hardware. A good reason many hate Apple things that just tell you "this is what you can do take it or leave it".
@@SIPEROTH i call BS on this, you want to configure anything as an Advanced user on windows use the Powershell, the same as using the Terminal on Linux, what your on about is the people who think they are advanced because they know how to access a control panel.
This is my biggest problem with the linux lot, oh it's to simple to use you can't customize it, you damn well can if you know what your doing, get around the security policies or disable them it all possible using Powershell but then they don't know how to do it, but at the same time they expect people to use the Shell on Linux it like erm fucking pot kettle... learn how to use the Shell on windows...
Something I appreciate about your take is that you focus on the average user. A lot of people on the internet assume that everyone is a power user or wants to learn every single thing about how their computer works, which really isn't the case. Most people just want to watch TH-cam, and have their games run without crashing.
I used to have that issue. Since I see it as easy to learn, I assume everyone asking for help would be familiar with software and tech. In reality, a lot of people get anxious when looking at their device's settings menu. Using a device and understanding the inner workings, even at the surface level, are two different things.
@@hamzasultan96 For real, I'm an intermediate linux user. I have no fear using the terminal and I can figure out how to use the config files I need, but somedays I just want my games to run, that's why I mostly install things through steam, because it's easy, and even games that aren't officially steam deck certified still run well under proton, or even ge-proton
The "apperance" can also be daunting, I started dabbling with Linux when I got my Steam Deck and even to this day I get a bit stressed when I need to run terminal. Doesn't matter how much I've read and prepared for what I'm trying to do. Once the terminal opens and there's a wall of text I can feel my confidence and motivation evaporate @@hamzasultan96
One other reason to at least dabble in Linux is that it breaks that mindset. Even if you don't daily-drive a GNU+Linux distribution primarily or long-term, it changes how you think about things like security, privacy, and how to really make even Windows do more of what you want it to do and less of what you don't.
this video aged like a finely sealed casket of wine when you see the new "features" coming to 11
As an Arch Linux user, I loved this video. It's so refreshing to see a completely unbiased video explaining how Linux isnt perfect and giving them reasons why they should and shouldnt use it while also showing them that they can still do most of the things they did on Windows on Linux and that its not as hard as some might think. Being unbiased with this sort of thing is so important imo instead of the typical cherry-picking that most Linux users like to do.
I also loved that this video is just straight up hilarious lol.

Other than gaming, I know there's a certain selection of people needing Windows for school and/or work purposes. For me it's because my college classes require the Respondus Lockdown browser when taking exams. It only supports Mac and Windows.
Have you tried running it with wine?
@@LordiGFX Yes. No luck.
Does it run in a VM ?
@@imelitist2828 doing that would allow cheating
@@FoxNoitre10 I run my schools lockout software in a vm. Took a little messing with to get it working but yea it works.
My first experience with Linux was trying it out in a Virtual Machine. I really wish people in the Linux community recommended Windows users to try Linux in a VM before switching. They get to try different distros and get their feet wet without having to commit to switching their whole system.
VMs can get complicated to set up. Virtual disks are hard to understand for a lot of people, let alone something like GPU passthrough
@@LiamNajor there's no reason to worry about something like GPU pass through. I'm talking about people using VMs to dip their toes into Linux. Also, I'd say setting up something simple in VirtualBox or VMWare is arguably easier than installing Linux on bare metal
I bit the bullet and decided to set up dual boot to try it out
@@jeremiebornais400 I couldn't get a VM working no matter how hard I tried last time I tried...7 years ago. However, back then I had a thinkpad t61 running ubuntu. If setting up a VM is easier then installing it, then either something has changed since then or there was something obvious my dumb child brain missed.
Yeah but then you have people who have computers that can't fucking do it at all.
The Koala is taunting me.
What kind of ordinary gamer uses Linux as his main?
I run Garuda on my game rig. Works great.
Wouldn’t it be hilarious if I edited this comment so the only way people can find out what it originally said is by deciphering it via the replies?
Lol
Dual boot or Virtualize. Get your toes wet... The water gets warmer the longer you're in it. When you need to get stuff done, use windows... When you have time to learn, switch over to your Linux.
Linux is getting better every day, and LMG pulling this challenge has actually spurred a lot of discussion regarding new user experience.
"Were it so easy" -Arbiter
@@zeke7515 no.
only reason i haven’t stopped using windows is because most of my programs are incompatible
Try a vm of Manjaro XFCE edition. I think you might like it.
you've nearly convinced me, however there's just so many 'but' statements
like yeah you CAN do most things, but a good bit of them require workarounds & the other half aren't supported yet
Ubuntu was perfectly fine
And then I tried to do a long, very important file transfer over USB 2.0. They were vidoes from a trip I was undertaking and the camera was running out of space, so easy I'll just do a file transfer Linux can handle that
Yeah 75% of the footage got lost because of a Linux bug. It transferred every file to 4GB and moved on to the next file. Something about RAM caching and dumping it to the drive and it can get confused by slow file transfer rates
I switched right back to Windows. As much as we complain about the OS it at least doesn't trip on such mundane tasks.
"You can implement this fix yourself to make the problem go away", that's a real nice solution if I didn't already lose hundreds of GB, which absolutely would not have happened running Windows. On principle I'm not running my OS to bug fix and find workarounds for every tiny, unpredictable thing
@@orange_man_from sorry but, the 4gb limit is a limitation of the fat file system, so thats your fault, not linux's one.
Linux is more fun when it's on a second laptop or desktop that you can use casually. Otherwise run a virtualmachine on your gaming desktop.
@@plumcakey nah m8 I know neither my camera nor Ubuntu use FAT. I've transfered greater than 16 GB files to it before on other projects with high-speed external SSDs. And the camera regularly records 28+ GB single files for me.
And that attitude. Everything is boiled down to the user's fault. Even if I was somehow running FAT on my Linux drive in your hypothetical, shouldn't the OS say "The file is bigger than 4 GB on your FAT drive so you'll lose some data. Please figure this problem out"
"Git good" does not apply to problems I cannot forsee. And again is not the principle I want to by daily driving an OS with
@@Zarrx yeah that's what I was doing. It was fun, I'll keep a new Linux distro on a bootable USB for funsies going forward.
I appreciate the sentiment. As someone who has dabbled a bit in command line and done some (very basic) computer coding, I'm not against getting deeper into Linux. But I would definitely like to start with something that, more or less, works out of the box and then expand my toolkit as needed.
Nice straightforward content sir. Subscribed
As a music producer, the singular reason I haven’t switched to Linux is because of DAW’s. FL Studio, Ableton, Pro Tools, etc are all basically unusable in Linux even through wine (since they don’t have actual Linux builds outputted by the DAW developers). Same with VST Plug-ins. It’s a real shame. The only DAWs that are practically available on Linux are terrible.
Didn’t expect to see Jas here
Bitwig works perfectly on linux and so do all the uhe plugins
What about REAPER?
I play without fuzz with ardour, my guitars and my microkorg work just fine.
Currently running debian.

Using Windows or Linux boils down to two things for me: Windows software compatibility and anti-cheat. I use Linux on my laptops and Windows on my gaming machine. Hopefully Proton will get some quantum leaps in development once Steam Deck comes out.
Yup that's what we can hope for... I feel like steam pushed the ball so hopefully it follows through
Gamer cope
The most popular anti cheats work now tho... BUT GODDAMN IT VALORANT DOESNT WORK (im a full linux user)
@The Cat ...Mind giving me some recommendations on good story based games? Something for me to look forward to since I'm gonna start learning this ubuntu thing since I'm getting tired of the issues with windows. It's starting to give me the zuckerborg vibe recently
As long as DXVK/Proton doesn't implement fully DirectX memory management it'll be borked in terms of performance
Its a joy to watch your vidz and very informative too. High five!
One thing, that you might've shown to the new users is how to install software via a GUI software centre, since many people might struggle with the terminal being text only, spitting out dependencies, etc. and installing via a web page is not really showing the beauty of secure software installation. That's how you do it on windows, downloading viruses from sketchy websites. Otherwise a great introduction!
I switched to Linux a few years ago and honestly, Windows feels like living in somebody else's house but Linux feels like home to me.

Problem with Linux isn't that it's complicated. It's that 90% of the time it won't support the software and hardware you want/need.
Yes and no, well, for pc parts, theres already a driver for that and it's technically widely supported, and the ones that dont have a built-in driver from the kernel, can just be installed independently
For peripherals on the other hand, you most likely need to find a community alternative, and follow the instructions of course. That's how it becomes complicated.
I haven’t heard of much not working, besides they’re are Linux softwares that run windows files.
Not even close to 90% but yes it's a real problem
It's the other way around. It's not that Linux doesn't want to support it: it's the companies of that unsupported software chose to not support it. Linux is free and open source. They can give support to it without paying Linux royalties or licensing fees.
>90%
If it were 2011 then this would be true, but now a days a lot of software is comptable(expect for the adobe suit but their is alternatives to that)
nice tutorial. I like your banter. no nonsense!
Have tried many times to switch to linux but my necessity to run games and the adobe suite always gets me back to windows. BUT thank you for treating people like me (linux noobs) with respect, and not with contempt, like many other forums or videos i have come across. You have earned my respect and my subscription. Looking forward to more of your content. Thank you.
You can install any window’s software of Linux with wine-Linux
@@realseal_6252 doesn't really work all the time, though. Some software is pretty stubborn (Clip Studio, AutoCad, Adobe Suite as far as the ones I use). But personally my own laptop uses linux, and my work pc is Windows (but that one is provided by my employer). I even have a mac mini if I want to mess around with OSX. Different hardware for different needs :)

@@cookieface80 It was never popular... so what are you talking about? Popular as a linux distro perhaps, but that's like beeing the biggest fish in a barrel of autists.
Yeah, unfortunately for gaming, windows has the most support, and is the most well known OS. Despite the fact that for coding, Linux is the goat for me, I still prefer Windows for more gaming/casual things. It is easier to use than Linux imo

Great video! The problem for me is that Dell sometimes releases bios updates with windows installers only.
Dual boot is a must-have-option if you want to use your PC at full scale.
I switched to Ubuntu with most of my devices. That helped a lot when I had to start doing some of my computations at work on a server with Red Hat. Having to switch to a no-GUI OS at work would have been terrible without prior experiences using Ubuntu. And then, I got me a Raspberry Pi to play around with, which runs Raspbian Lite. If you invest a bit of time it starts to be real fun to do stuff with that.
I amusingly started this backwards.
I bought a couple Raspberry Pi's a couple years ago, and just in the last few months switched my PCs to Garuda Linux, now I'm dusting off the RPi's to actually get their projects moving.
I'm holding the Steamdeck and Windows 11 responsible for finally motivating me to switch, my eagerness to try out the steamdeck and Windows 11 reminding me too much of my terrible Windows 8 experience has shoved me fully over to the FOSS/GNU/Linux community, and I'm actually liking it quite a bit so far.
Only keeping Windows 10 around for Halo Infinite and my Windows Mixed Reality Headset, had good luck so far running the rest of my Steam library on Linux
Do you think it's fun to waste 4h debugging some driver issue people on osx or windows never have to spend any time with? In my experience people that work for a living and have some other hobbies than tinkering with computers don't wish to waste their time fighting with an operating system.

Linux probably will be greater in the future but windows is a lot more comfortable and has been for a decade or so, once Linux goes beyond mainstream then people might start considering it as a permanent option.
Linux is more comfortable.
“Linux will be greater in the future” was being said for the last 20 years. Linux Desktop is still going to be shit if distro developers won’t start standardising how things should work and look across ALL distros.
@@ProtossOP this, this is my biggest problem with Linux: lack of standardization
@@thingsiplay Not at all
@@thingsiplay Yes it's more comfortable... For us, who know how to use it. In reality, Linux is prohibitively complicated for beginners. Even distros like Ubuntu.
The day you can do everything in the system without needing to open the terminal once, is the day you can say that the system is comfortable.
Even in Ubuntu, you will run into needing to open the terminal within the first couple of days of use at the latest & that is unacceptable. That's not comfortable at all, that's burying the end user in sudos and ls' and apt-gets which should all be completely unnecessary.
And all the tutorials operate in the console, when they should instead show people how to use the UI.
For an operating system to be considered good for the general population, most users shouldn't even know that the terminal is a thing.
The biggest problem with Linux support currently comes from multiplayer game developers. Given how Linux operates it's hard for them to monitor other system resources for cheat software so they have a hard time supporting it for anything beyond single-player games. Maybe valve can solve the issue with their upcoming anti-cheat stuff but it will take some time for the big guys to want to test it on their AAA titles.

@@multivitamin7 I remember being banned for using an autoclicker xD
A fundamental aspect of information security is, "never trust the client." Yet that's exactly how client-side anti-cheat mechanisms work. They're security theater, not real security. If you think they actually stop cheating you're living in a fantasy world.
I don't think there's a conspiracy between Microsoft/Epic/game publishers to keep people on Windows with these basically useless client-side anti-cheat tools but I wouldn't put it past them based on their history of monopolistic and--in the case of Epic--severe and illogical anti-Linux bias.
Fiddling in a Virtual Machine with any Linux distro is the best way to come acquainted with it. Increasing your windows virtual ram could help to make it run on a acceptable level.
I agree with Muta in principle, but let's be honest... Linux is largely for computer enthusiasts. Those who know what they're doing. Most people who use le 'poot are casual users i.e. not coders, not technological whiz kids, and who go to their IT department at work to solve even the most minor of inconveniences. If something goes wrong on Linux, people have to do the trouble-shooting themselves. Sure there are fabulous communities that post regularly to forums and are more than willing to help out fledgling Linux users, but let's be real... For most people? That's just too much effort and kind of annoying. People want things that work out of the box and, if something DOES go wrong, they have a fall guy who will pick up the pieces and fix everything for them. Most Linux distributions are fantastic and often times more stable than Windows, don't get me wrong! But, without that fall guy, without that clear line of financial responsibility, for most? It's a no-go. You are asking a lot from people if you expect them to go from paid services, which comes with all the legal requisites you'd expect, to freeware OS (Yes some distributions are sold, but most aren't. And yes some distributors do have support available, but again most won't have the infrastructure in place to help people in all the ways that Windows can). Also, as others have mentioned, Linux is in NO WAY as user-friendly as windows... If you think it is? You're the non-casual user I was just talking about and, although I'm happy you're having a great experience, those experiences are not going to translate over to nearly as many people as you think they will.
Sidenote: Muta your point about terminal is null because, although Windows has clickable directives to do things instead of just having Linux terminal and that's it, you said it... They have PowerShell i.e. command prompts too? Those clickable buttons, pages, software etc etc are for those who require a user-friendly straightforward OS. If you don't need that and you're a power user? Well, use PowerShell then. No one is stopping you.
(From both a casual Windows and Linux user, lmao)
to be fair I think the total freedom about linux distros is both a good and bad thing.
on one hand, if you know what you're doing: *it's fucking awesome*! because you can essentially do whatever you want without having to negotiate with the operating system. you are quite literally the god of it and thus the only limit is your imagination. not to mention how it's also more secure than windows with the permission system for instance, where instead of it being "are you admin or not", you can instead modify the read, write, and execute flags directly for even better customization.
but on the other hand, like you said...the "if you know what you're doing" bit.
Yeah are people forgetting you can literally use PowerShell to make Windows your bitch?
@@digitalcyclone7218 Exactly! I think in time Linux will be comparable to Windows. We are just not at that point yet. And, although I respect Muta, he is literally a power user... I think he forgets that most people are unwilling to do all the legwork that Linux requires. I personally think it's fun! But, I'd be lying if I said it was my main desktop. I still want/need a computer that can play all my games, run mainstream software, and that I know is user-friendly and that I can rely on when I need a simple experience. I'd love to go Linux full time but, right now - with the lack of support for various programs and, of course, its infamous gaming issues - it's just not viable for me.
@@eld1rt honestly I think that will never happen. As Digital Cyclone above said, the distros are both the blessing and the curse of Linux - a blessing for enthusiasts, and a curse for pretty much everyone else. I work as a video/photo editor and I simply can't switch over because there are no warranties that the software I need can reliably run there, and most of the professional-grade softwares for these jobs don't have Linux versions because the inconsistencies between distros don't allow them to build a version for Linux that could be profitable, because they wouldn't be able to guarantee it would work for every distro around. Unless Linux goes through a very unlikely consolidation proccess into a single or a handful of distros, it will never be truly challenging Windows (or Mac) for position.
I agree, linux is difficult to use for many people, and no, linux enthusiasts and elitists, you can't justify it, it's just hard to use for many people, it doesn't get easier to use if it's more private, it just not easy and you can't do anything about it. you can't just say windows is trash and linux is way better and expect people to move to linux like it's the only way. linux is hard to use. (for me it's easy but I know the frustration)
The problem with using balina etcher is that when you format the drive you have to disk part, list disk, select disk, clean, mark active to get the full drive size back. Whats better is a program called "ventoy" can boot 20 different distros from the same grub
Ventoy is very nice, and I can only recommend you leave some extra space for loose files you might want to keep on the side.
Damn, I've always been bothered by my "gaming" laptop. it sucks when playing games, it would stutter like heck. This video is really tempting me to try this out.
As a lifelong Windows user dating as far back as Windows 98 I'm very tempted to make the switch now. Windows 11 just might be the final straw for me.
Yeah.. I went back to 98 after going to ME, I skipped Vista, but otherwise? I have been on the cutting edge and beta testing for every Windows since 3.11. Windows 11 offends me with it's existence after all the promises MS made. This should have been 10 Plus+ or something. I'm going to stick to 10 for a while and might go to Linux after if needed, but I really don't like 11. Not even just for the stupidity of changes to go graphics, but removal of various system settings and removal of ability to customize the OS to what I need. They even 'patched' a regedit to put the start menu back... what even was the sense of that?
:(
Please please do. You won’t regret it. Sure there might be elitists, but most of the people you’ll find will be helpful
@@Artimidorus what windows 11 has done to 10 is the same as what 7 did to vista. Linux constantly tries to reinvent the wheel instead of getting the fundamentals right. If you switch you will quickly realise that the grass isn’t greener. So go for it and you’ll see.
@@V1CT1MIZED have you used anything except windows lmaoo, its retarded to say "linux" (im guessing you're thinking about something like ubuntu) tries to reinvent the wheel when literally the only thing that defines an os for most people the de which you can pick anyway. want a windows like experience? use cinnamon. want cinnamon with tons of eyecandy? use kde. customization is the bread and butter of linux in general
Why though? If you have used it for 20 years it’s doing well. Unless it’s doing something that you don’t like your just going to piss yourself off if you use Ubuntu or another distro for anything other than the base install.

Switching to linux was one of the most fun I've ever had, yes it's not flawless, it broke on me it a few times because of what I did but that's expected because it's so open. However, since most the crucial applications I use don't support Linux (Ms Office, Adobe, etc) I can't fully commit to it. I tried dual booting for 3 months but it's just not worth the trouble of maintaining 2 operating systems, so I switched back to windows. However, as a CS student, I do miss the terminal on linux. Fortunately there's this WSL2 which virtualizes a linux distro on Windows.

KDE - display manager. you just have to think about linux as a console; everything goes through it, just like the old days with MSDOS. but there are some gangster applications like KDE that can be used as display managers and give your computer all of the visuals and stuff. if you don't like how "linux" looks, just change the display manager, it's simple as that.
@@zRussh No worries, Muta got your back. The way he explains it is pretty noob-friendly, which is exactly what you need when switching to linux. Don't bother with technical details until you need them, so you can learn in small steps and not get overwhelmed.
And to make life more convenient, look at the desktop environment before installing. There are usually a few per distro (see their websites, you can download differnt versions and see images of how it will look). I personally run Linux Mint with cinnamon desktop, because beautiful.
So: decide on a distro (ubuntu is fine, but there are many that may work), then decide on the desktop you like most. Tadaaaaaaa: You got yourself an OS. Really no magic here
I mean, you did use one the most bloated Linux distro, somewhat defeating the purpose. I would have used lubuntu or a puppy variant.

I am a writer and use Scrivener almost exclusively. Programs like Wine do a good job at trying to port over more popular programs for artists (mostly games tho lol), but it seems scrivner is pretty unfocused on. Really sucks, but its the only program I cant compromise on

Manuskript, bibisco, and Emacs have similar functionality. Don't know how they compare, though, never used them or scrivner itself. Apparently scrivner version for Linux was abandoned, but it seems it does run in wine.

i'm trying out the single gpu passthrough setup for gaming and adobe suite apps. honestly, there isn't much difference in performance so far. alternatively, you can install your secondary operating system on a sata ssd and use it with sata to usb converter as an external device to boot into whenever you need. good thing about creating a gpu passthrough windows virtual machine is that it allows me to install windows 11 even though my laptop does not support it, but in a vm, you can emulate tpm 2.0 etc.

The ONLY hiccup we have nowadays is anti-cheat and DX12, the former because those companies don't currently support linux, and the latter is because well DX12 doesn't run well on Windows either, thankfully because of that very few developers even bother using it.
i used to run ubuntu as my daily driver when my vista distro took a crap on me back in the day (was a celeron laptop with 1 core and 2gb of ram) and i ran it on my netbook too. I didnt go back because of the experience with gaming, i think im willing to go back to it now
I installed mint recently. (Been using on and off for 9 years) 20.3. Didn't need to add driver to get WI-Fi dongle to work. It also adds wireless printers automatically that are on the network.
Just works out of the box.
As someone completely new to linux myself. The best solution to get me to trying it out was running it in a virtual machine, that way I keep my windows 10 for normal use since im fairly versed at it but can open an app and boot a fake computer running whatever flavor of distro id like. I use VirtualBox for my vm's.
Once you've chosen a distro, you could try dual boot, using a 2nd drive for your Linux installation. This way, you could still run apps and play games you can't get going on Linux and you will not curse so much when it crashes on you. If you decide to go back to Windows, you can use that 2nd drive for additional storage.

Well, not only that, but certain games just aren't the same. FFXIV wasn't a smooth experience for me due to random framerate issues, and I had input lag in Melty Blood. I reinstalled windows even though I would prefer to keep using linux, the last thing I want after a long day at work is to have a less than optimal experience.
The thing about Linux is that for most users this journey starts and ends the moment they realise their software and/or hardware doesn't work on Linux out of the box because barely anyone supports Linux, so they'll bail. That's the sad reality.
On a side note, I would argue that Linux Mint is a better beginning distro. It has more Windows-like interface, and is based on Ubuntu.
Kubuntu is one as well... Its just Ubuntu with KDE... Looks & operates like windows & you can still refer to the general Ubuntu community for troubleshooting.
I'm a fan of Mint however I can see his point. Ubuntu has some great features and looks and feel polished. Corporations if they use linux it is Ubuntu, so for the best begining experience Ubuntu is the right choice especially for mac users. But I installed my mom linux Mint and she loved it.
Mint was my first Linux OS, totally agree with you, it’s a very easy switch.

For making a bootable USB drive, I use Ventoy. All I have to do is to copy as many ISO (or other disk type) images onto the flash drive. Ventoy then provides a menu to select which disc image to boot. It supports both UEFI and CSM (BIOS) booting.
Ventoy often has problems with creating correct loopbacks which in turn fumble your installer.

I really think Valve is going to push a much needed change for PC gaming with the Steamdeck. The new SteamOS looks absolutely amazing so far and they've made insane progress for 'it just works' compatibility in such a short time. Even the big anti cheats.
I want Linux to become big for gaming, and I see Valve making it being adopted VERY fast.
I hope. Cause Windows is getting very shitty lately.
Won’t take long for valve to erode away the Linux aspect exactly like google did with Android. People will see steam OS as it’s own thing separate to Linux and they’ll even label it like that on the steam stats page separate from Linux. Steam are putting profits first and they are being smart about it. Linux is but a means to an end. You’ll see and I look forward to it.
@@V1CT1MIZED ... Ok? You know valve has been dumping a lot into making Linux good right? And yes and no to money. Valve isn't a publically traded company. They have no shareholders. They don't care about profits in the way say Google or apple do.

Does wallpaper engine run on Linux? Or is there a Linux equivalent? Been wanting to switch for awhile finally going to do it but unfortunately I have an nvidia card too
My 2 cents: I've used Linux as my daily driver laptop os since 2004. I have always needed to have a Mac or windows computer in addition to the Linux machine (either dual booting or a seperate box). The biggest issue that Linux has isn't compatibility with other software, it's compatibility with ITSELF. Fragmentation is a real issue, and it's much much worse on the desktop than it is on the server. And for anyone saying "it's gotten much better in the past few years" I've been hearing that since... well, 2004. Don't take this as disrespect, I absolutely love Linux as a hobby, ive done some amazing things with it that you cant do with anything else, and yes I use a Linux desktop still as my daily driver to this day. But the most accurate thing I ever heard about it is "Linux doesn't have games - Linux IS a game". If getting your computer to just work doesn't sound like a fun hobby, Linux is not for you.
Sorry you wouldn't use Windows apps on Mac OS? So why do you force Windows apps on Linux? Now navigating Games on Linux is a bit of a mess. To be expected with keeping the kernel virus free and exploits free. Android has already given us a blueprint on how to allow gaming in Linux. Windows patents are expiring so this is forcing Linus to double and triple the size of the kernel (NTFS3g). IMO Linus is playing it tough to stop gaming developers from getting root access to file system. Telemetry is just a fancy word for we are downloading info about system hardware, but yet no real answer to the data your collecting or screenshot of what will be sent to Nvidia. Well I trust Nvidia, but Linus doesn't want to review 5 million lines of code that you put under some app named "Cooking Cup Cakes" video game and it has Telemetry that exposes users to a exploits and data lose.
Depends on your distro. If you need all the software Linux has to offer, just use an arch based distro like Manjaro. The AUR is the largest software repository in the world.
To a new user, familiar with the windows paradigm, I agree, Linux is very fragmented. As someone who can really get Linux on its own terms, I see a distro as three things: an installer (or install process), a package manager, and whatever the distro maintainers wants to ship with the distro. I'm pretty sure I could get most things built for any Linux distro running on any other. I could be wrong though.
I haven't ever been much of a distro hopper, and when I have hopped distros to see what they're like, it's usually things unrelated to compatibility. Maybe the distro won't boot properly, maybe it's slow as balls, maybe I just don't find the experience with the distro very compelling. I generally run Ubuntu/Mint when I just want something that works and Gentoo when I want to get serious.
My experience with Gentoo may be what gives me my views on Linux, as it can really be whatever you want, and you can start with any distribution as just a text input and build it from there. The problem I find with other distros is that they're not as straight forward with you as Gentoo can be, and I'll be frank, they're package managers are almost never as flexible and robust as portage is.
Man, why didn't I read your comment before I tried switching...
@@gamezoid1234 the fragmentation problem isn't just with having different distros. I agree that most software can be built on different distros (im a debian user but I have a ton of respect for gentoo). The problem goes a lot deeper than that though. Different desktops. Different bootloaders. Different compositors. X vs Wayland. System d vs initv. Window managers. Pulseaudio vs alsa vs jackd. The list goes on and on, and every combination has some sort of incompatibility. On the server, this can be fixed with containers, but on the desktop it's a total mess. Linus Torvalds has a recent talk on this issue called I think "why linux desktop sucks" and it was very validating for me to hear since I have had the same issues for so long. I no longer have hope that linux desktop will improve, but I am happy and content with my Frankenstein debian-xfce-openbox-etc setup I have patched together for now (until an update breaks something)
Creators of any kind still can't justify the move, Linux is good for sure but we'll need A LOT more support or A LOT more open tutorials on how to use everything we normally use.
If you want better support and open tutorials for FREE stuff... Write it your damned self. Linux doesn't exist to meet your use case. It exists so you can *make it* meet your use case. If you're not willing to bother with learning how to best use a new OS then *anything* other than Windows isn't for you. You've already lost. Your computing soul will be owned by Microsoft forever.
Not if you want to have an identical workflow, but that will likely never be the case. If you don't want to switch, certainly no one will make you, but if you decide that you do want to, you can't expect to bring all the program's you're used to with you. You might need to use KDenLive for video editing, Kritta for digital painting, something else for audio if that's what you create etc. You might have to learn new programs and workarounds and techniques, but you'll be free of microsoft. If you don't wish to be free of microsoft, then obviously you don't need to bother with switching.
@@Riskable3DPrinting This attitude is why Linux will continue to be obscure to the general public. Most people are just users. They use the software to work.
