Wilhelm (wbud@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 29-Dec-2023 01:50:40 JST Wilhelm @itsfoss Difficulty running some games, need to use Visual Studio for a lot of stuff. The latter might be solved with a Windows VM. The former may just involve abandoning those games (like Destiny 2).

Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 29-Dec-2023 03:47:01 JST Nazo @itsfoss For me it's still difficulty in getting a few of my more stubborn daily drivers replaced and gaming. Things like Proton are great, but it just doesn't seem to be there for serious gaming. (Well, I'll try again when I get my AMD GPU. I was a little caught by surprise to find out that these days nVidia is the one that really isn't good at Linux after they practically owned video acceleration in Linux for decades...)
Someday I truly hope it replaces Windows. MS has lost their minds.

Islamic Audiobooks Central (islamicaudiobooks@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jan-2024 19:36:48 JST Islamic Audiobooks Central @itsfoss Yes but non techy users would never need to see the terminal if they don't want to... especially as everything they need is available with a GUI. We have our community school running Linux in the computer lab and students couldn't care less about the OS as long as the apps are there.
