I helped my son install Windows 10 on a spare SSD for Fortnite. His first comment after booting into Windows: Why is it so ugly?
After the novelty of playing Fortnite wore off he's back to Linux.
I have a win-box for old 16/32bit games, and there is always a reboot needed or some other crap. Dont get me started on the speed, does it have to call m$ by phone every time I want to launch a program?
God I love Linux.
^^^ Amazing parenting right here. π π π π Bravo sir.
Honestly gaming on Linux is so good these days, itβs almost on par with Windows there. Really the only major games that canβt be played are due to anticheat rootkitsβ¦ which are a security nightmare anyway.
I had 5k hours of Linux-exclusive Apex Legends, the only Linux Apex Diamond in my country, I had streaming income and even tournament income. I still miss it but I won't ever go back to Windows gaming even if I doubled my streamer income.
Did they drop Linux support or something?
Almost 2 seasons ago, yes. It's not coming back.
It's so ugly because you didn't install Windows 7 :3
As much as I love Aero, one probably should use secure and supported OS for gaming
Of course, Windows 10 & 11 are harder to make look actually like Aero than basically any Linux DE, because they hate you
KDE has an Aero theme in settings.
