    It’s too bad that the year of the linux desktop has been so long in the coming. Because now, it really is far superior to windows. Bluetooth, printers, and games even “just work” these days.

      Not all games just work. For sure though Proton is absolutely amazing. The only thing stopping me ditching Windows completely is my kid still plays Roblox which doesn’t work on Linux.

        Apparently they’ve fixed the Grapefruit launcher so that it works again. I haven’t tried it yet though, because it’s Roblox, and I can’t stand it.

      It’s funny because if Linux was where it is now, 10ish years ago, I probably would have stuck with it. All I cared about then was basic computering and gaming, both of which are well handled at this point.

      Problem is now I’ve spent a decade honing my skills on specialized programs that don’t have good replacements, and realistically even if they did, compatibility and years of learning specific programs have locked me in to Windows.
