Which one?

Windows, primarily, because I need shit to just function. And there's no competition to OneNote and Office in Open Source land.

But I have multiple VM's and containers running lots of Linux stuff - on Linux boxes because it just can't be beat as a Host. Even VMware is Linux-based.

And there's no competition to OneNote and Office in Open Source land.

I'm curious what is missing between OneNote and something like Obsidian or any of the other notes apps.

I completely understand office though, i find OnlyOffice good enough that i run it even on my Windows setups but I can imagine there being features, keybindings, etc that are not present in any of the alternatives. I've also seen a lot of people switch to using Google Docs exclusively since it helps with collaboration anyway, but I hate how poorly it runs...

because I need shit to just function.

Yeah some things are just not there yet too, like VR... So understandable

I don't know myself but all I know is that OneNote fucking sucks. It's the lamest most boring cloud attached fucking notepad app ever.

Only boring ass project managers use that shit, and there are dozens of better note applications than OneNote, but these people won't even give them a try because it would require them to admit that onenote sucks.

I installed Linux on two Windows laptops so they would function better.

I recently switched from Windows 10 to Nobara Linux and it's amazing, right now I'm playing gta 4 which only required some tinkering to work without issues. Highly recommended

Kubuntu on the desktops, Linux Mint on the laptops.

Debian 12 (Backports)

[–] stinerman@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

Debian Stable. I have a W10 partition but I don't boot into it very often. We're talking about a few times per quarter.

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fedora and Fedora Server for my server.

I used to dual boot windows but after the 4th time it nuked my boot partition, I deleted it and did a fresh install. I really only used it to play one non linux game which was Halo Infinite, which was not really that fun tbh.
