I'm really not far off. Once my Tiny11 install breaks, it's on to Bazzite.
Would recommend CachyOS, especially if you have a nvidia card
Good looking out, I'll check it out.
Had thought of Fedora with Plasma, have been.using Linux Mint for the last 18 months. any thoughts?
I've been using CachyOS for about a month now with no problems. Very fast and easy distro based on Arch, so it's "bleeding edge." I haven't needed to, but be prepared to tinker if an update goes south. I came from Bazzite and liked that well enough too, but I wanted better access to some softwares.
Let us know how it goes! Never tried Bazzite!
I installed it on my SteamDeck and have its non-gaming sister on my laptop and I love it.
I wouldn’t trust a premade iso like that. Get an iso directly from Microsoft and use an unattended autoinstall script to clean things up.
I respect that, but I built my own Tiny11 iso. You can do so as well here: https://github.com/ntdevlabs/tiny11builder
Folks gotta give me a little benefit of the doubt. I'm not raw-doggin' the modern Windows experience here.
I’m not saying just it for you, I’m saying so other people don’t just search “tiny11” and install whatever they find.
Your more nuanced response is appreciated.
I still think the unattended install script is a bit more transparent.
Fair enough. 👌
Personally running Nobara with my 4080, works great.
