Windows user since 1994 (2 YO)Linux user since 2008recently "betrayed" by m$2020 or 2021 switched to Linux but dual booted with winlol for compatibilitygamer, but not competitiveon 2021 succeeded to run everything on Linuxdeleted winlol and use only Linux sinceI have no significant other nor special someone besides my parents

  • @stuner @JoshsJunkDrawer well, it's not entirely true, this is not on Mint or Bazzite but installing AUR packages on manjaro, you do not see the results immediatly but the AUR on manjaro is...well, there's a reason why it is not recommended at all, you begin to install an AUR, then with a 100% probability, your manjaro will break after some time, this happened to me multiple times, this never happens on EndeavourOS for example, nor Cachy

  • Decided to try out Bazzite on my desktop PC - Distrobox feels like magic

  • @YesIAmHoomanNoCat @AldinTheMage a quick google search revealed that this was common & someone posted about it on Gigabyte Support forum & the reply was that "your laptop doesn't support Linux", also another result gave a relatively simple solution, but the damage was done, I lost my brother to the dark side, & I don't think there sells in tunisia a Linux-friendly device (yes not even a SteamDeck)

  • @YesIAmHoomanNoCat @AldinTheMage they can exist for you only, it depends, is your device an unsupported or Linux-aggressive one? I have a Gigabyte laptop that is very aggressive towards Linux but is pretty much supported, and I don't have any shame to say that I use Cachy, Generally Linux since I bought it (the Laptop), I know this because I bought to my brother a sibling Laptop, same brand, and last year it did a very stupid thing, it activated secure boot with no way to disable it

  • @higgsboson @Sxan such an extreme mesure for an "insignificant" act, at least for tunisians, it's normal to find latin (french & english) & arabic & strange symbols (a mix between latin letters & arabic numbers understood as common tunisian) on the same text, for 99.99% of tunisian people

  • Announcing the Alpha release of KDE Linux

    Jump

  • @djdarren @woelkchen I migrated my #Linux many times between distros and I also do the same thing: I never have a seperate /home partition so I backup everything on /home on a seperate drive + other things & after I standard install the new distro, I live boot from USB & replace the new /home with the new /home content

  • Announcing the Alpha release of KDE Linux

    Jump

  • @djdarren @woelkchen you would be better off with #KDE #Linux because, I never tried it but, from what I heard I saw from other users, it's pretty unstable, at least #KDE #Linux is immutable distro based on #Arch so you have a significantly lower chance to break it

  • The amount of mental gymnastics to come up with (and justify) this is insane

  • @shalafi since I began on 2 Years old in 1994 until now I guess 31 yearsAnd I really debugged, I really debugged, I never installed a pirated OS on my personal laptops but I stayed 5 years from 2012 on the support for the m$ club on my faculty & I still am but significantly less for winlol & more Linux, I met ms. Linux in 2008I know you think 2 years old is too young but believe me, using the computer without being able to read anything used to be easy, especially when you have some assistance

    Jump

  • @possiblylinux127 @pastermil in my life, I literally saw everything and am seeing more & will see more & more because of dumb people & non-techies who installed pirated versions of winlol, for example, ones without support for UWA meaning many software that depend on that feature but have essential functionnalities and a winlol version that accidently cannot delete anything, & more, so I advise you to stop recommending this to people

  • @ragebutt @TheLeadenSea don't forget steriotypes, history and old habits almost always work for non-tech savvy, for example, many people avoid Samsung devices because they explode in spite that even happened last time years ago, I know they still explode but it is a rare even and its causes are known

  • @arendjr @possiblylinux127 eh, in reality, The reason we are seeing a lot of security vulnerabilities is because:A: it is the most used OS in the world, hackers & pirates.... have 100 reasons to pirate winlol, for example imagine having 1 B$ worth of games on your storage drive, everyone would be killing to even have a sniffB: it gives the feeling of the thrill of challenge when you decide to tweak, because it is close-sourced so it by default enables a few tweaks, all can be corrected

  • @lig @Sunshine BTW this is true since many years, in fact this was among the reasons that made me switch from winlol

  • What do I want to see in the Linux ecosystem in 2025?

    Jump

  • @bleistift2 @addie Wayland will be the only display server, it's impossible to deny it, for example KDE defaults to Wayland & Gnome is 100% detached from X11, the deletion of X11 is coming in the futureplus, X11 is full of spaghetti code and no one, and I mean no one, supports it anymore, Wayland came to correct that, plus if you have a laptop with a hybrid GPU, you must switch manually between for example Nvidia & Intel, on Wayland everything is done automatically, etc

  • @naonintendois @craigcorbin catching up? From what I heard, Linux surpassed winlol in gaming for certain titles, but yes, if you take the average, there's still a gap, and it's becoming smaller and smaller
