Get rid of Windows. There's literally no good reason to have it anymore. None.

[-] Summzashi@lemmy.one 4 points 3 months ago

I don't have time to troubleshoot Linux all the time. So there's one good reason.

[-] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 months ago

Assuming it will need a huge amount of troubleshooting is a little crazy.

[-] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

You clearly do assume you would.

[-] Summzashi@lemmy.one 1 points 3 months ago

Not an assumption.

[-] Fashim@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I've had less time troubleshooting Fedora linux lately than I have on Windows

[-] Sethayy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 months ago

From all the time saved not troubleshooting windows you might actually have to pick up a hobby, which I suppose to some is a reason

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 0 points 2 months ago

Linux is the hobby here tho haha

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 0 points 2 months ago

Linux requires configuration but once it is set up, it works.

Windows does require endless trouble shooting.

You are projecting your bias here.

Linux deff has learning curve which is what I think you are hinting at here

[-] Summzashi@lemmy.one 1 points 2 months ago

Lmao you're out of your mind

How do I play my VR games? How do I test the cross platform application I develop runs correctly on Windows? How do I update the firmware on a device for which the firmware updater only works on Windows?

I use Linux. These are some of the reasons I keep a Windows VM around. So no, it's not true there is "literally no good reason".

Have to have it for work, AutoCAD doesn't run on Linux

[-] ngwoo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

OP wants their Xbox controller to just work so I don't think Linux is the best option

[-] gerbler@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

This, completely switching operating systems is not a reasonable solution to their minor problem.

[-] mbfalzar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago

My Xbox controller has just worked on Linux for months now?

[-] ngwoo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Wasn't saying that they don't work on Linux just that changing OS for a controller isn't really feasible

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 1 points 3 months ago

Seems to be just working with windows huh
