I would NOT recommend biting the bullet for Windows 11. If you want to use it, just make sure you have a virtual machine of Windows 11, and have specific purposes for it. That way, you’ll be able to sandbox the data as necessary.

Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto Linux@lemmy.ml•[Discussion] Flatpaks, ram/disk usage and compressionEnglish2·8 hours agoAll the dependencies are stored in the AppImage itself. You can even make an
AppImage.home
folder so you can make it portable. That’s from my research on the matter, though I use them myself.
Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto Linux@lemmy.ml•[Discussion] Flatpaks, ram/disk usage and compressionEnglish4·1 day agoNeigsendoig (my producer) and I started to shy away from Flatpaks. We’ve hated Snap already, and rather distro packages, third-party compiled packages and AppImages.
Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto Linux@lemmy.ml•DDoS affecting most of the fedoraproject.org servicesEnglish15·1 day agoThe problem is that we don’t know how to DDoS anything (which is a good problem to have). We already use a different distro, and stay away as best as we can from the above described.
Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•ZOOM Platform also had payment processor issues, say they "have no plans to remove any titles"English3·2 days agoSo Collective Shout is doing the same to them, aren’t they?
Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto Linux@lemmy.ml•DDoS affecting most of the fedoraproject.org servicesEnglish342·2 days agoHonestly, IBM deserves to get DDoS’d for their actions. This is because of the push for Wayland, PipeWire, Systemd and some other things they want to shove down our throats.
My producer and I aren’t like that, thankfully.
My producer and I personally use Bash. We tried zsh, but that didn’t treat us very well. Fish is actually pretty nice, though.
Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Steam data reveals PC gamers shifting from Windows to LinuxEnglish4·2 days agoNeigsendoig and I happened to be Linux users since 2020. We’re actually glad to see that people are noticing the writing on the wall.
It was inevitable.
Neigsendoig (my producer) and I have used i3 for a while… and we’ve probably stayed on that since we first started using WMs.
That said, we’ve attempted the likes of Xmonad (configured in Haskell), Awesome (configured in Lua), HerbstluftWM, BSPWM, Hypr (not Hyprland), JWM, Ratpoison and even SXWM.
Neigsendoig and I wouldn’t recommend any Wayland compositor due to new security risks (despite an attempt to fix X11 security issues), though a lot of people want Wayland to be shoved down our throats. We personally use X11 due to many things that Wayland devs can’t/won’t fix.
This is also part of the reason why the two of us are excited about XLibre (as much as some will hate the control of IBM, GNOME and FreeDesktop with their Wayland, Systemd and PipeWire push). Sure, its main developer left the project from what we’ve heard, but otherwise, there are a lot of contributions to it, and it will improve big time.

Edit: To clarify, I think this GPU will be somewhat supported on Linux, but that I’m not entirely sure on.
Mugita Sokio@discuss.onlineto Linux@lemmy.ml•Arch Linux Users at Risk Again as AUR Hit by Another RATEnglish1·5 days agoThis is why I just use the Chaotic AUR, knowing that something like this was being posted everywhere. My producer, Neigsendoig, does the exact same with his machine.
We both use CachyOS anyway.
Windows 10 has support ending for it in October. Linux will probably be the only way to go.
