Im so glad I finally made the jump to linux. For anyone still on the fence about it, do it. It’s so easy to switch, I’ve been using Kubuntu for a few weeks now and I have had maybe one issue with playing games, and it was solved by changing the Steam compatibility layer version.
When I switched, I installed a fresh (debloated) Windows instance on another SSD just in case. You know how many times I’ve used it? ONCE, and it was only be cause a buddy wanted me to try a game that had anticheat (I think Rocket League). Other than that I’ve had no reason to use it. There’s a decent replacement for just about every Windows software out there, and if I ever come across a need for software I can’t run on Linux, I’ll just use the Windows instance for it. Other than that Microsoft can suck it. They’re not getting any more of my info.
Now if only I didn’t just get a new Android phone, I’d swap over to a de-Googled phone…
It’s an S25, and I bought it mysel lol, I don’t to mess it up. My plan is to deal with it for a year, then buy a pixel for cheap and throw Grapheneos on it. If I screw up the pixel I at least have a backup.
