Just a dude on the internet, looking for content and fun! I love Linux, gaming, writing, reading, music, anime, walks, and occasionally movies too. Chronically ill and anxious too, that makes life quite interesting…At times.

  • I’ve been reading about the problems that Windows 11 has had for years, from the safety of being on Linux for good after Recall was announced (and floundered like a fish out of water). I missed how just about any Linux Distro got out of my way and let me work in general peace. It let me know when updates were needed and waited until I decided to install them. Occasional donation asks (probably once or twice a year) to KDE, which I do not mind because they are open source and awesome, I donate due to their work in the Linux space! Sure, I’ve had occasional problems, but, there’s been a solution for every issue I faced!

    Windows 11 problems are directly caused by Microsoft insane desire to push AI into everything ( insane because it’s dangerous and has no safety rails). Until Microsoft shift their OS and mentality in the right direction, those fundamental issues will never be solved (not that I would ever willingly use anything Microsoft made again after this fiasco).



  • Bazzite is nice, I’m running it at the moment. The gaming customizations are nice and having the latest kernel stable+NVIDIA open drivers is swell. You can even use Distroshelf (to emulate a distro) and App pass through to install apps that don’t have a Flatpak version. Or package layering, which is needed for VPNs like Mullvad to work properly; that’s also pretty easy to manage, so I never feel like I don’t have access to software. Too bad stock Fedora cannot be arsed to make NVIDIA drivers brain dead easy at the time of installation.
