Dual boot is the way for right now. Proton is huge, but there are still a good number of games with compatibility issues or rootkit anticheats. Personally I advise steering clear of the latter, but that’s neither here nor there.

I use CachyOS as my daily driver and booted up the Windows partition maybe 3 times since setting this up back in February (and most of those times were just to play REPO because Elgato hardware with dual input and output has serious issues with Linux, but I’ve sorted that out now with a workaround)

Let’s add a 4th person in there, someone who thinks they’re helping by doing nothing but yelling that the fire isn’t allowed to burn things

This is absolutely one of the reasons they’re pushing this garbage so hard. It’s VERY easy to manipulate as a propaganda tool.

You can already see that most of these tools lean right because their userbase does - leftists don’t touch this garbage because of numerous ethical concerns as-is. Add more astroturfing on top of that, and now it’s just a straight up automated fascist mouthpiece.

Of course it’s right-wing, lemmy.world is literally just a liberal hub LOL, its no different than reddit’s awful default subs.

Yeah true. It’s generally better from what I’ve seen but nazi chuds really are everywhere.

Oh absolutely. We’re in a very different age today though. Like hell I can’t imagine either of my own parents understanding the basics.

This is the core of the argument. You can’t expected the average casual user to use CLI at all if you want mainstream adoption. The vast majority of people can barely operate Windows as-is, telling them to use a Linux CLI would be asinine.

History is written by the victors, and the outcome is looking grim right now.

It’s actually so refreshing seeing upvoted comments here with the correct take, whereas the chuds would be all over this on the other site

Fuck JKR and everything she stands for

They live their entire lives pissed off at everything anyway

That explains it, I knew this art style looked extremely familiar but couldn’t place it

I haven’t majorly fucked up any recent systems (almost botched the steam deck once or twice but nothing that required a reinstall), but god 10 years ago I probably reset my arch dual boot like five times lmao
