Mint was super easy. I just had to scratch my head for two days trying to figure out why the keyboard didn't work after coming out of suspend. Had something to do with it being in a USB 3.0 port. Once I plugged it into a 2.0-port it worked.

All these threads make me want to take the leap to Linux. My work laptop runs on Mint, but as for my home pc.. guess I'll still have to wait for more Proton development/compatibility. Last time I checked, part of the games I want to play soon (Remnant 2, Supervive, Legion TD 2, Morimens, Sengoku Dynasty, Ravenswatch and a few others) seem to require a little more experimentation than I'd like.
Don't get me wrong, as a modder of obscure Chinese games and at work, I'm all for experimenting. But for the 1h per day I can play, I'll wait until I'm quite sure I won't spend it tinkering around to get my current games to work.
But I sure hope it will be sooner than later!

I installed windows 11. It was a shit show. So many updates with a 6gb iso. Took forever.
This is 100% true, but the chart inverts when you have a problem you're trying to fix.
LTSC is pretty easy to install. But it's still Windows.
The debate has never been so intense! It might not be the Year of the Linux Desktop, but that's certainly a great one
Windows 10 is easy to install... If everything goes well. And 2 out of 3 times in my experience, it doesn't.
I suppose its all relative, but I didn't find debloated windows to be much worse than anything else. I used microwin though, is that a different experience?
