Rayspekt,

I think there is no general answer to “Is Linux mainstream ready to replace Windows?” because the use case is so important to consider.

If you just need a PC to browse the web and consume media then Linux is absolutely fine. This should more or less apply to a large group of users that don’t do anything else with their devices.

Are you a gamer? Then I’d say more or less perfectly fine but it really depends on the games you want to play. Everything with the new, invasive anti-cheat tools doesn’t work (e. g. League of Legends) but smaller, single player, or many multi player games do work at the moment.

Are you a professional or are using otherwise specific software? This is the biggest hurdle I see at the moment. CAD programs for engineering are a big problem for example.

And last but not least: Are you using periphery that needs specific drivers? Printers, audio interfaces, and whatnot. Then you might be out of luck as well if you can’t script.

The last two points are the only ones that would worry me when I won’t have at least one windows machine lying around.

Rayspekt,

Your niece sets her windows pc up herself then or how can I understand your example?

Rayspekt,

You tried Mint yourself. Wouldn’t you agree that setting up mint is exactly as difficult as windows? Only thing is that people aren’t accustomed to it, but it’s hardly more difficult. And those pc-illiteraze users don’t set up their PCs adter all I’d argue. It’s the pc vendor or nephew or whoever that sets up the rig.

Only thing is that it’s unfamiliar, not more difficult. But if that’s the problem, then it’s just ppl not wanting to adapt to anything for the sake of it.

Rayspekt,

Wo denn? Ich möchte meinen Teil tun, kann aber nichts finden.

Rayspekt,

I guess prepare to die edition.

Rayspekt,

It’s sad that this stuff still happens when those mumbo-jumbo abuse schemes are as old as time.

Rayspekt, (edited )

This has to be same artist, hasn’t it?

Rayspekt,

HARDCORE TO THE MEGA

Rayspekt,

Now we just need proper Linux phones as well.

Rayspekt,

David Cage has entered the chat

Rayspekt,

Well there aren’t that many strategy games, let alone rts, that are that engaging for single players in the long run. I’m equally not interested in playing generic skirmishes over and over again as I enjoy playing strategy games competitively online.

Rayspekt,

This looks great

Rayspekt,

Richtige 1 Pimmel

Rayspekt,

Haha, get rekt. Ich liebe es, wenn ein Plan funktioniert.

Rayspekt,

I don’t have any microplastics in me. My plastics are huge!

Rayspekt,

So can we call them plasticles now?

Rayspekt,

How long until Denuvo will get patched out after release? What do you think?

Rayspekt,

Yea, he got goomba stomped by a master yi one trick.

Rayspekt,

I’d be so glad if the Disco Elysium sub would move to the fediverse

Rayspekt,

Also something something Sweet Baby Rays

Rayspekt,

Ew, Linus

Rayspekt,

We need more goth gremlins for Eurovision. But this year is going to be hilarious with all the eurodance and shit. I’m pumped. If Windows95man doesn’t win, then I’ll riot in the streets!

Rayspekt,

Seriously, ESC is a gem they way it is.

Rayspekt,

Or going public in general.

Rayspekt,

Ed Zitron is on a rampage against consultants and managers breaking the industry and I’m all here for it.
