    Functionally it's a laptop with a controller built in instead of a keyboard, plug it in to a dock with a keyboard and mouse, and even an external monitor, and you have a linux computer

    If that is the case, then the Deck probably still contributes indirectly, at least in my case I switched a few months before the Deck started shipping, but after it was announced

    And while I was slightly familiar with linux and interested in switching before, the Deck made it so that I felt safer and more confident doing so

    Unfortunately my phone is not rootable (every phone I get from now on I'm gonna do more research on first to make sure I don't make that mistake again) but otherwise yeah that's amazing

    To bad there's no app to turn your phone itself into a live USB, I would have loved that a few months ago

    Some games do run better some don't, I wouldn't call it most but it's not an insignificant amount either

    But yet, it seems like the majority of Linux users have nvidia anyway.

    Probably becouse it's more popular among windows users, so when most people switch to linux from Windows, they use the hardware they already had, which more often than not includes an nvidia GPU

    and then to mean non-Apple computers

    I call Macs PCs to this day becouse of those ads

    This is another one of those things I've heard about but not experienced, I use my computer every day and haven't had any issues in over a year at this point

    Agreed on all points, I didn't end up finally switching to linux until I got so fed up with the auto update caused issue I was having that I just got rid of windows entirely

    And while I at first switched to Ubuntu, I wouldn't be happy until a few months later when I landed on fedora with KDE

  • @shapis
    I'm gonna keep using fedora for now, largely becouse I don't want to go to the effort to set certain things up all over again, but I'm at least paying enough attention to what's going on that if they do something I see as to far I'll switch

    Still not sure what too though

    I put xfce on a garbage laptop for my parents (who are used to much older windows) and they loved it, the laptop ended up breaking eventually but that was a hardware issue and they regularly ask me when I'll be able to replace it

    It's like a constant game of whack a mole, with valve trying to make it work and EA trying to make the app reflect the rest of their company
