In this case definitely the first. Just make a new directory (name doesn’t matter: SATA, Files, data…) and use your distro’s tool to change the mount point (Disks on GNOME and derivatives, or just edit fstab yourself)
You can just mount it in a folder in your home directory. This is not a weird thing to do.
I too had an NTFS partition at first. Definitely not great, since it trashes your file permissions. I was glad to be rid of it when I binned the other OS.
Arch + Cinnamon is neato!
This is part of my new setup ritual right along uBlock, DDG, and more. Shame that this is the best choice we have for a browser.
Yep. Would be pretty bad software otherwise. Best to set it up so it keeps one monthly, one weekly, and 2-3 daily snapshots. Then you don’t even need to think about it, and it deletes older ones automatically. You can still do manual snapshots, and it won’t delete those.
Why does this look and sound like the inspirational scene of a Mockumentary?
A better title might be, “Solutions to newcomers’s most common problems with Linux”
The video is about the results of a survey regarding the problems people are having using Linux. Only 10% of them described themselves as beginners. That would not be a good title.
I personally see zero condescending tone in it. The video doesn’t prove to be toxic like you described either.
IMO this just isn’t a good community for this, because nobody clicks on a 20 minute video to figure out what it has to do with “Linux Gaming”. Plus YT links are almost always downvoted anyways. I agree that the title isn’t the best, because it fails to convey what the video actually contains.
If you have the space (on a different drive, preferably) you could use Timeshift to create regular snapshots of (parts of) your system. You can restore deleted files like this from even months ago, if you configure it like that.
The first snapshot takes up as much space as all the files you want to save, but every following one only uses as much disk space as the new/changed files since the last snapshot.
Proton can run any Windows-only game on steam, you just have to enable it in the settings. The ones for which you didn’t have to enable this either have a native linux version, or are officially supported in Proton, and should run very well. The other games may have more issues, but even those might work excellently out of the box.
I prefer a distro with a nice name
That’s honestly a really good distro picking strategy for someone just moving to Linux.
I took it as a chance to weed them out. I went through each one manually and made a choice whether to keep it. Went from ~260 to 130.
I also unsubbed from each so as to make yt unusable, so I wouldn’t be tempted to go there, unless specifically looking for something.
Nope. Nowadays the required audio source is measured in seconds.
