I just switched to Linux. Get fucked!

[-] demonsword@lemmy.world 40 points 1 year ago

and that's the only long-term winning move, because MS shenanigans will never end

Exactly. All the latest chaos that Microsoft does, you know you'll be immune and your desktop will be the same for as long as you get bored of it lol.

My laptop gets the fun experiments, my desktop plays the games

[-] mojo@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Same except in reverse lol. My laptop is out of date fedora because I'm lazy to update since it's a youtube/twitch machine pretty much. My desktop gets the bleeding edge + games.

I'm testing stuff on my old ThinkPad!

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I may have lost my sound card drivers, but at least I've not got to put up with windows (don't worry I've got an external soundcard)!

I'm team Linux as well

Man I miss Linux, I swear one day I'll install it on my old Mac, at least as a funny project.

[-] KrummsHairyBalls@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Same, but I switched back today. DaVinci Resolve doesn't support AAC audio on Linux, even on the paid version (literally everything uses AAC audio). The closest thing to any kind of usable photo editor is photopea, and that's web only.

Linux is just unusable for media creation, unfortunately.

Unless your media is made in Blender, then it's pretty good. Inkscape has been getting nicer, too.

But that's about it, yeah.

I really wish the affinity suite would make a linux version.

[-] KrummsHairyBalls@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Same. That would help a lot.
