I understand and using Windows for certain things is perfectly valid. Perhaps things will change in a few years and we'll be able to run all the plugins with a system similar to WINE, or something like that.
If music production is your main objective, I would suggest Windows. I do some home recordings as well and have quite a baggage of pluggings and tools that are either unavailable, not compatible or not up to date on Linux (I'm on an Arch based distro). I have Windows and Linux on two separate SSDs for this exact reason.
I managed to set up my Linux system in a way where I can work on some projects and got most programs to work one way or another but I always encounter hardware issues that have to do with drivers, especially with some of my older equipment.
If you have the the option you can install another drive on youtrlaptop and run both Windows and Linux.
Now, there are folks out there that do music on Linux but there is a lot of work to do to keep things running, especially if you use lots different softwares and pluggins.
Did you manage to get similar performance on Linux? Halo Infinite on windows 10 gives me an average of 150fps with medium settings, on Linux I get 70fps with he low prest and more stuttering. I use gamemode as well. My GPU is rtx 3070.
It is indeed, I tried to go straight WM (i3) but I'm not used to it so I installed xfce which I'm familiar with (I'm also using it on my server running Lubuntu).
I tried Endeavour on i3 exclusively earlier and I was able to set up the monitor correctly by editing the config with vim. I think the problem was when I reinstalled it using xfce, the drivers I automatically got from
nvidia-inst
Didn't work right so I had to find an alternative source.
Now everything functions perfectly.
Did you check if you have any conflicting libraries?
You can also try replacing the steam folder with the one on your laptop. If that doesn't work it's a problem with the OS on your PC. If you can't trace it back you might want to reinstall the distro. Just back up your files
Copyright infringement laws vary but even though simply downloading copyrighted material is against policies, it's hard to enforce and most copyright holders don't always find grounds for a lawsuit or it's straight up not worth pursuing.
You downloading a movie off a website is the same as a friend of yours sharing the same movie with you on a USB stick.
Actions against unauthorized distribution of copyrighted materials (especially if it's for profit) on the other hand are much more easily enforceable.
That's it. I don't know why it was commented in the first place. Thanks for pointing it out! Now it works
