  • At least it’s not covered by a dark shade now.

    Why does that matter? It looked fine.

    It was literally my favorite design of online video player, and I remember enabling it back in the day when it was still an experimental feature.

  • Yes, I’ve also read about problems with dual-boot systems after Windows updates, which is why I’ve refused to use Windows too often to make the updates worthwhile.

    Sometimes Windows just overwrites GRUB (or whatever you use on your system) bootloader. But it's relatively easy to fix using your distro's installation media. Just in case this happens you need to refer to your distro's documentation or community forums to fix it.

    I do recommend however in the future to not put Windows and Linux on the same disk, but have 2, each for respective OS. That way, there's no way Windows will ever touch your Linux bootloader, and you can still allow GRUB (or other bootloader) to chain-load Windows boot manager from the other disk.

  • Why not put it in VM?

    The only thing I'd suggest if you do that is to have at least 32 GB of RAM, because I was in a situations where running few Electron apps, and Win11 VM caused RAM to fill up. But if you're not running Electron apps you should be fine with 16 GB.

    And if you're planning to play games, you could use GPU passthrough for near-native performance, but from what I've heard it's a bit hard to set up.
