I’ve said this before but I believe windows will merge Linux into it before too long. It’s starting with WSL. It’ll be hybrid OS eventually

50% Windows, 50% Linux, 100% garbage!

If that first 50% runs my applications flawlessly, I'm all for it. I do not want to dual boot and Linux doesn't meet my needs yet.

50% Linux means developers are more likely to create Linux applications which is a step closer to 100% Linux

What are your needs?

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Non-emulated AutoCAD and Ableton with full VST support are two big ones. Last I checked there were still ASIO driver issues with my audio interface (Scarlett 18i8), too.

I know things have come a long way since I last mained Ubuntu but I'm not interested in jumping through hoops to get it going even if it's "possible" when they work natively without issue on Windows.
