What are some things you wish you had known when switching to Linux?
  • @flamingo_pinyata

    This is such an underrated comment. Linux hates, hates, hates NVidia. I've spent ~24 hours trying to get two applications running, both of which consistently complain about my GPU and Hardware Acceleration.

    I always, always hope that its good, but unfortunately 8/10 times, it tends to be a disservice to the franchise.

    Could you imagine a Metal Gear TV / movie adaptation? I can't imagine anyone could ever make that a descent representation of not only the content, but the people who are invested in it too, but I would love more than anything to be proven wrong.

    Eek I just finished installing Manjaro to test it out.

    Its crazy to me how companies can keep writing up these TV show adaptations, and get away with it.

    90% of your target audience doesn't want anything to do with it, and yet you keep making it.

    Wild.

  • Hello, I’m going to be getting a new computer soon and have thought about linux. Questions inside
  • @Ozzy Exactly what I was thinking. Kind of a PiTA if everyone needed to do that, but maybe an excuse to throw up an open-source script on github for it.

  • @Ozzy @rtxn I just thought of this, could one, create symbolic links that point to /lib (for ex.) to "repoint" the directory a package gets installed to?

    Not sure if this would work, but was curious if someone's attempted it before.

    Thank you for the very clean and clear explanation. I'll have to give them another chance.

  • @Linuturk @PseudoSpock My problem here is that I don't understand the purpose of flatpak when Deb seems to have everything from my experience, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

    Lover of many things, including primarily the following: \- Linux \- Vim \- Most video games \- Hideo Kojima \- Nature \- Automation & efficiency \- TTRPG's

    I am an LGBTQIA+ ally, but fall in the straight, white, male category. I'm a software engineer by day, working on large-scale projects for a cushy company. During the night, I play and develop video games, write and develop campaigns for TTRPGs.
