Quite a few clients were unable to upgrade to Windows 11 on their current devices, I let them try out Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon edition and most of the switched over quite happily knowing it would let them do their daily tasks, the one's who needed specific tools or games I setup a VM desktop for them to play with.

Straight to advanced Linux. Rip the bandaid off now. It's only going to hurt more later.

English hard, apparently.

I fucking hate this thing that's becoming more and more common. Obvious bad grammar and spelling mistakes in memes like this, it's become the rule rather than the exception in just the past year. And I'm certain it's rarely not done on purpose, it's the same with post and video titles both here, reddit, youtube etc. It gets clicks and comments and people fucking suck so they do it with no shame.

I'm a programmer at a tech company. Last month, I tried setting up two different distros on my personal computer, in anticipation of Windows 10 EOL.

I experienced:

• Total failure of wifi drivers
• Graphical corruption returning from sleep mode
• Inability to load levels in Deck-certified games
• Critical input delays in a reflex-based online game
• Inability to install a particular Linux-native app on my particular distro; not only unavailable by main package manager, but also by its alternative container-based strategy.
• Right-click menus that hid the options I'm used to finding on Windows, with no visible way to turn them on.
• Repeated overriding of my customization of keyboard shortcuts
• Inability to assign Ctrl+Tab as a keyboard shortcut for a terminal app (Tab was unrecognized)
• UI forms altering my selection when I was attempting to scroll past them
• No discernible methods to pin frequently used folders to the sidebar of the file explorer
• No discernible way to remove/edit Application entries (leading to games that I created an entry though off Steam's install dialog being stuck there even after the game was deleted)

So no, don't keep telling me I'm staying on Windows out of idiocy. If someone replies to this with a doctoral on why every single issue is actually somehow my fault, it completes the trifecta.

Linux distros need to take a step back for a long, lengthy discussion on good user experience before they rush back to making memes like these.

Recently I have problem with high you and cpu usage, mainly GPU(GeForce 1060). Trying to troubleshoot it and updating drivers but so far it's still doing it with game that shouldn't be that demanding (timber born). So I'm debating switching completely to Linux already have Linux mint on second drive but remember having problems with the GPU drivers too. So while I like the simplicity and not bloated os not sure I want to troubleshoot other stuff and learning new os and using command line. I'm still very much noob with Linux so just want to ideally set it and for it just work and occasionally update without stuff breaking. -just a bit of rant about deciding, sorry if it doesn't belong here.

Anybody know of citation software such as Zotero that runs stably on LibreOffice? I will gladly switch but this is holding me back.

Although I agree in spirit, there is a bloatfree version of windows 11 called LTSC.

Makes me one happy windows user.
