That is why dual boot is based.

This is so true recently because recently developements in linux OSes are too fast

I was just about to give up on it the other day after using Mint for the last 6 months because I was having weird instability issues. Anytime I would play a game it would freeze within 15 mins. Turns out XMP had somehow gotten turned on in UEFI settings. Must have done it by accident the last time I was in there. Anyways, disabled it and all my issues disappeared. I would have been pissed if I wiped Linux and reinstalled Windows only to still have issues.

I need to dual boot Windows for my stupid Xbox games and stupid Office that don't run in Wine. 😭

[-] Rustmilian@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I know you probably mean newer Xbox games, but check out xemu if you like retro titles.

Problems?

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

All of the problems so far

[-] Tixanou@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Most people that I've seen go back to Windows are people who tried something like Fedora as their first distro for some reason, and then left because they found it too complicated. Instead of going for an easier one like Mint

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 months ago

That is indeed strange, I started with Fedora for some reason and I still use Fedora. Great distro tbh, my only complaint is that more things are .deb instead of .rpm, but .rpm is common enough.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 2 points 11 months ago

That is the quirk of being splintered in so many different distros, and all the users recommending a different one.

It is by far the biggest reason why Linux hasn't gone mainstream.

New users are having to deep dive into all the different possibilities just to find the one that does what they want, before they can even start the process of installation.

Compare that to Windows: just install the latest one

Or Mac: you are forced to use the latest one.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.
