Thanks! I’m actually settling into bluefin right now. It’s based on Fedora, but is closer to bazzite. Supposedly has great framework support, which is important I realized

Thanks for the recommendation! Nothing wrong with simple and standard. I won’t lie though, I fired up Fedora last night to play with, and I really liked what I saw 😅
I’m excited to go full Linux. It’s been a long time coming for me. Like I say, I tried to do it years ago. I recently did it for a year or more. I don’t remember switching back to Windows, it just kind of… Happened 🤷♂️
Every time I’ve opened mobile discord this week, several times a day, I’ve been getting a full screen ad asking me to upgrade to nitro.
That’s annoying enough. This will be worse, soon.
The code is already there, just swap out nitro for world of tanks and the conversion to crap will be complete.
Exactly. I’d love to use jellyfin, but it’s just not feasible
I’m really thinking I might go Fedora. I haven’t spun any of these up yet, busy busy.
My new laptop is a framework 13, AMD version. Apparently bluefin, which is Fedora based, is super compatible with all the features of that laptop.
Thanks for the recommendation, and the explanation!
Hmmm yeah that doesn’t sound amazing… Thanks for the heads up
Thanks! Lots of votes for bazzite. I’ve never tried it, but I plan to
Nice! Glad to hear it! I’ve heard mixed reviews on Manjaro
Thanks for the recommendation! I’ve used xfce in the past, and at least back then, it definitely wasn’t my jam. I appreciate how lightweight it is for older machines though!
And yeah I’ve definitely learned a lot through these discussions. Snap vs flatpaks, and the benefits of Wayland.
I’m leaving the op as is though, a record of things I didn’t know before haha
It’s not fully immutable like steamos. But yes I do see your point, it could be confusing.
Thanks! HDR isn’t important to me right now. Though I think I need to specify that I’ll be installing this on a framework laptop, and therefore, from what I’ve learned recently, Wayland is actually preferred because it enables some track pad gestures that x11 lacks somehow.
I’m definitely leaning towards bazzite, because people seem to think it’s not that bad even for general use, and it ticks a lot of boxes.
Though nixOS is on the table. I at least wanna try my hand at configuring it.
Thanks for the recommendation!
That’s fair, I’m a bit uninformed on wine and proton’s roots. However I’d argue that for someone like OPs girlfriend, a somewhat-immutable atomic based distro like bazzite might be better. Especially if it’s only used for gaming and YouTube 🤷♂️
But different strokes for different folks, so perhaps they’d be better off just installing steam on their distro of choice 👍
You’re… Still running windows 7?
I think the implication is that they will switch to Linux
Wine need not apply. That’s old school. Sims 4 works great in proton. Basically just install steam and the rest is handled.
Better yet, install bazzite as your distro, gaming works out of the box.
Regulations cost money. African labor is cheap. Don’t worry, the market will sort it out…
Just wait until the AI assistant gets added 🤢
