Do you utilize a dedicated AV like Bitdefender when sailing? Or do you still trust Windows Defender to take care of the higher risk while doing this? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

What the title says, and that's pretty much it. Do you or don't you?

Exactly this. I'm getting plenty of downvotes and people claiming I'm talking crap but when I tried the Linux gaming life, I couldn't even get Minecraft to work. Freaking Minecraft. And it only continued downhill from there. I make no claim that it's not possible to game on Linux, only that it's often such a chore that your entire planned gaming session can end up being a session of reading through forums filled with snide comments from pretentious Linux fanboys instead. I started as a console gamer and the fear of PC gaming was always that PC gaming can be a nightmarish tinker fest but Windows is much more click-and-play than Linux in my-and-most-people's experience.

It's not Linux's fault you're retarded.

Aaand there's the insult. Well done invalidating your already flimsy argument. Have a nice day

People will call you what you act like.

So you're gonna pretend you didnt reply to my other comment where I mentioned that Linux has steam and supports 98% of AAA titles so you can play the victim now?

Being too ignorant to figure out how to set up Minecraft and giving up after 2 minutes doesn't back up ypur shit talking about Linux.

I'm not playing victim. You were needlessly rude. And for your information, I wasn't ignorant, I didn't spend "two minutes" trying to figure it out. I reached out to Mojang support who told me they don't have a support department and couldn't help. The few suggestions on I found on forums at the time didn't work. So frankly, you're sounding exactly like one of the usual pretentious asshats on the Linux forums who refuses to face the fact that an OS shouldn't be so overly complicated that it requires any more than a couple of clixks to run the best selling game of all time. No amount of defensive fanboying from you is going to change that.
