I know this might be a couple months old, but I didn’t know we already passed 4%.
Count me in! Switched to Linux Mint for my DD last month.
Only thing I’m missing is a very dead simple 3D modeling replacement for the Windows one (the others have a steep learning curve). I’ll have to find a browser based option…
It’s unfortunate that the Adobe suite is not on Linux. FreeCAD and Blender are the standard of 3D modeling on Linux but Adobe Web has been picking up steam lately.
If you have two computers you can add the program to Steam on Windows and Stream it.
If it’s not very performance heavy then you could run it in a VM and use something like Dropbox or Mega to sync your work through the Internet.
If the files are very large I’m not sure, but I think you might be able to mount a shared filesystem that’s used by both the VM and the Linux host
I love Linux but I wish the BSDs weren’t getting left behind.
For the record, I really like macOS and Apple products as my “consumer” devices but all my side projects, web servers, routers, etc. run Linux. I ran FreeBSD for a long time until I got into containerization and Docker.
People like Theo De Raadt might have had a fairly huge impact on killing BSD.
He might have alienated a lot of people from even considering bsd.
The Linux community also had a lot of help by vendors such as Suse and Redhat who had no problems implementing good ideas which were a bit toxic, but were available in windows. Commercial venders can make a massive difference (as well as government deployments).
The big problem has been people resistant to change
YOTLD
Dominance?! Ha!
