  • I hate to be that guy, but that’s where Linux is failing. “Oh, you used the most popular distro? That doesn’t work. Try this one you’ve probably never heard of and will have a really hard time finding support for… It’s the only thing that works on this exact date, and there will be a different answer next week.” I’m not paraphrasing you - just my personal frustration.






  • Probably gonna get a ton of hate, but…

    I’d heard lots of pep talk about Linux being ready for gaming, so I tried Mint this year. Most of our Steam games didn’t work right. Lots of Googling, really tried to make it work, got some to work, but ultimate just went back to Windows - all games work out of the box.

    Instead of having 2**32 distros and compatibility shims, y’all need to get behind a common ecosystem that laymen can get aboard… if you want Linux to proliferate. Unfortunately the chatter here really backfired for me.
