I appreciate the enthusiasm. I really do love Linux conceptually and I think it can provide a great environment for certain games (Hollow Knight runs great), software dev (as long as you don’t need visual studio), web browsing, etc. My laptop has an HDD and came with Win10 pre-installed. It was so fucking slow that I thought I got scammed on the hardware end. 10 minutes to boot, another 5-10 stuck at the desktop waiting for something simple like a browser to load, zero performance in games and unfathomably slow UI in all applications. I installed Linux and all of those problems just fucking vanished. 2 mins to boot, a clean and responsive UI, and maybe a minute or so at most to get a browser open.
The problem is that the annoying bullshit AAA devs do to their games makes it unreasonably difficult or impossible to get them running on Linux. I do hope some sort of solution is found, as I’d love to be running full Linux in 5-10 years.
