Windows 11. Don’t @ me, I don’t have the mental or physical energy to deal with Linux. I’ve never had a Linux install that’s had close to everything working, there’s always a device (network, sound, graphics, usb toaster) that doesn’t work and attempts to follow people’s instructions to fix it either make it worse or just do nothing.
Maybe I’m just useless or unlucky, but I’m due to die in a few decades and I don’t have time to deal with that nonsense when Windows does everything I want it to.
Fedora on my laptop and windows 11 on my desktop gaming PC
I use Windows 11 and honestly am pretty happy with it. My laptop runs on fedora. I would Consider Switching to Linux on my Desktop but i do music production and some of my soft and Hardware (NI maschine mk3 and some VSTs) dont run on Linux. As long as that is the case, Switching doesnt make sense for me.
Edit: if anyone has suggestions how to get maschine, vsts from NI komplete and VSTs in General to run on Linux, i would be super happy. As a second DAW i usw bitwig which supports linux but as all my other stuff is windows Based im pretty much tied to Microsoft
Fedora, first I just went with it to try it, but now I stick with it. It’s great because things just work, and I haven’t come across problems I didn’t know how to fix.
MacOS and I’m certainly never going away from that. Just perfect for my use case with nice unix base and a great gui. best of both worlds
At work I have had to use macOS for two years now and I still can’t get over how annoying their GUI is. I’m surprised every time someone praises it.
I’ve been in the same boat, and ended up installing a lot of utils just to keep my sanity. I used this guy as a primary resource: https://youtu.be/cfsNO14hikA
Oh yes, me too, Magnet, Amphetamine, Karabiner, Forklift, qView.
What I’m missing is a good solution for the calender. The integration with Exchange calenders is broken since Ventura, the Webview of OWA drives me up walls, the Thunderbird integration with Add-Ons I didn’t get to work so far.
