I’ve always sworn by Arch builds. Built one up from scratch back in college ten years ago, and this past winter I decided I wanted to try a linux box again. After a bit of distro hopping I settled on CachyOS, but Endeavor caught my eye too.
Shit breaks, but fixing it is a learning experience. Small price to pay in exchange for the customization it offers.
Not even, pirating it still keeps the name in relevance.
Fair, I stand corrected lmao
The last time I tried a linux system for a daily driver was over 10 years ago. At the time everything felt rough, unstable, unsupported, and gaming in particular was nonexistent.
Set up a CachyOS dual boot back in February, think I booted up Windows 3 times at most since then (and have since sorted out the issues that I had to do that for in the first place).
I still can’t seriously recommend the switch to less tech savvy folks (try putting grandma on Mint and see what happens lmao), but we’re definitely finally getting there after all these years.
I set up a dual boot over the winter, I’ve gone back to windows maybe 3 times at most.
I’ll still keep it around in case I ever decide to dabble in games that use rootkit anticheat (though since quitting destiny 2 I don’t see that happening lmao) and for other very occasional utility, but I’m definitely thinking of shrinking that partition even further
