Just so you all know this guy is a dues paying member of CPUSA, and every time someone brings up kicking him out it gets immediately shutdown.

If they want to game, can't commit to only playing steam games, and can't learn how to use lutris, have them stay on windows. Linux will never live up to their expectations.

I would double check and make sure someone didn't accidentally send 4000 when they meant to send 400.

I'm ashamed to admit I fell for this.

That's not true!

I'm gonna vote for Claudia. Just for fun.

Exactly. There are plenty of "tankies" lumped under that antifa banner.

Tiktok spoonfeeding me leftist creators with its algorithm during BLM is a huge part of how I became a socialist. It ofc can have the opposite result, but I know for a fact I wouldn't have joined a decentralized platform with no algorithm 5 years ago.

I meant more that, when it comes to newer bleeding edge software, some of the bugs introduced won't be as well recorded and people won't know exactly how to remedy your specific problem. Whereas with debian/ubuntu or fedora, often its as simple as typing whatever problem you're having into a search engine, plugging some junk into the terminal, and it fixing the problem 90% of the time.

But I agree with your comment overall so have my upvote! :)

Tips for switching to linux:

  1. Determine if your hardware will play nice with linux. If you have Broadcom or Realtek wifi/bluetooth be aware that linux doesn't always have great drivers for those. Nvidia gpus don't always play nice with wayland.

  2. Certain anti-cheats for games just don't work on linux.

  3. (might not apply to you since you're in IT) Try to avoid using obscure linux distros or bleeding edge distros like Arch. You'll run into issues and not many people will be able to help. Debian, Fedora, and Ubuntu seem to be the popular distros rn for most people.
