Windows 10 support ends. Open the floodgates. Let the windows refugees come !!
Many saw "end of support" and thought windows would stop working, which is good, but also kinda dumb.
I have a sneaking suspicion we're going to see a rash of system vulnerability start popping up in Win10 over the next few years. And we'll get deluged with national news announcements that boil down to "Win10 is unsafe!! Your data is compromised!! Only 11 will save you!!"
I wish I could get steam to run on my Linux OS, it'll only play like 3 of the games I want, and none of the VR ones
That a distro? I'll look into it
Proton is a compatibility layer that basically tricks an application into thinking it's running in Windows, allowing to run in Linux.
