    Is it just me?

    But i can understand if artists really need photoshop they cant do that on linux because adobe explicitly gives no f*ck about any linux compatibility.

    I must say if an app doesnt work, mostly its intentionally by the devs, and that sucks. Especially on games with Kernel level spy… i mean anti cheat.

        I also have always had everything just work, I don’t understand how everything is always broken for everyone else. Maybe I just buy good hardware?

        The same with windows tho, you always have to find solutions.

        I was on linux mint, kde plasma and another rather odd distro with a window manager. All worked out of the box. But i saw hell let loose with someone with cameras and just the cameras, the rest seemed fine and in working condition.

        Idk man, when i started using linux with PopOS as my first distro 5 years ago, i don’t remember anything not working as it should. It wasn’t until i started using arch that i had to do more things myself, which makes sense cause it’s a diy distro.

          When I started 9 ago I somehow managed to destroy my Debian install (specifically the Wayland session) when I tried to install Genshin Impact. Now I play happily play Genshin on my Mint. But my starting philosophy was: Better break it now before I put too much time into it.

    Umm… How old is this meme? You haven’t (really) able to play PC/Steam games on Mac for a while… Also, XFCE hasn’t been a serious contender for a DE (save for a lower end hardware spec) for quite a while now.

    This meme might have made more sense if it was comparing to Windows. Comparing it to a Mac now is comical, especially since a lot of Adobe software doesn’t work quite right yet on M* series Mac’s yet (though it is better than at launch).

    Maybe the Linux god just loves me but back on Windows I always had technical issues. From driver problems to blue screens. And since I switched to Linux in 2021 its all literally a perfect out of the box experience. Everything works. No problems. Much more stable. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
