The bullshit I put up with. Goddamn.

That full screen win 11 thing had me going for a while until I noticed the "opt out" button. When an OS starts to become obtrusive, I start to look for alternatives. The primary reason I use Windoze is because of gaming and most of that is through Steam. SO, now that the Steam Deck has pushed some great improvements in gaming on Linux, Linux MINT may be in my near future.

I already use open office on my home machine instead of the MS Office I have to use at work.

Keep pushing M$. You'll push me right away.

Highly highly recommend Nobara over Mint if you're primarily going to be gaming. It's a fork of Fedora by Glorious Eggshell Eggroll (the guy behind Proton-GE), who himself works for Redhat.

It. just. works.

v40 should be out within a week or two of Fedora 40 dropping on the 23rd.

Edit: Wrong Egg-thing

I went with popOS. It's been fantastic.

And not being able to log into my own fucking machine if I lose internet access, or if Microsoft servers are on fire? Absolutely fucking not.

If? As someone who works for a Microsoft CSP there is no if, it is always a when.

But in all seriousness the you don't auth to ms when you login. You have a local pin that only works on that system.

Yes, please put everything in the cloud so you own absolutely nothing
