In all seriousness it's very exciting, I just don't need to see the same information worded 20 different ways from random clickbait sites lol

Dont you get it? Every year is the year of linux.

[-] menzel@programming.dev 5 points 8 months ago

The year of the Linux desktop is long ago, but this year definitely will be the year of Linux mobile

Contrary to the idea that most of these new users come from steam decks, I've had 3 of my friends switch to or at least partially use linux. We are certainly growing.

Microsoft has made their os so annoying and I loath when their updates revert settings that took me an hour to find in the first place. Or worse, remove the settings and features I liked to shove some more bs ads and data harvesting down my throat.

So yeah, I'm planning on downloading Linux mint to a flash drive and giving it a try on one of my laptops this month.

A windows update broke my computer. My system image I made using Windows couldn't restore. I have zero faith in windows. The culprit was something like an update that fucked driver signatures.

i'll switch 100% to linux when Logitech supports my steering wheel.

[-] domi@lemmy.secnd.me 4 points 8 months ago

Which one? The G27/G920/G29 and some others are supported pretty much out of the box.

Not thanks to Logitech but they do work fine.

[-] jaschen@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

G928 and the pedals and shifter

[-] domi@lemmy.secnd.me 2 points 8 months ago

Do you mean the G923? Can't find a G928 anywhere. The G923 is supported since kernel 6.3.
