I know someone who always has to say More like rage FOR the machine amiright? They went WOKE!! I just facepalm hard.
It’s like moving from r*** to lemmy. It feels fresh exciting and so far untainted by corpos. Plus people here/then we’re actually tech literate since computing didn’t care about the lowest common denominator like today. I’m baffled how many of my friends actually know nothing of technology but they use it every day all day… Thats what we loved about it i think.
There’s gotta be a series about this. Only “The Old Ones” that can operate something that’s not an iDevice, the only ones left who can handwrite and don’t use AI for every question they ever had. The only ones with books because everyone else threw them out and burned them. Would be interesting but we are living it right now so maybe no need.
It depends a lot on your hardware. All of my stuff was picked up instantly (all AMD), my kb/mouse/tartarus of course, and my Logitech wheel. Now if you mean VR, linux struggles with that right now at least for oculus. The vive is ok with steam only games I heard.
I treat it a lot like an old car. I love it and tinkering on it is fun, but if an emergency pops up and I have to, I can reboot into windows. Really trying to never have to do that, except for VR and games like PUBG (which yeah we shouldn’t support but my friends and I still like it sometimes).
If you’re the type that craves learning and the journey is more fun than the goal (ie, me), then do it! I just put mint and popos on 3 different computers and have been having a lot of fun with it.
Isn’t it fun? It’s like owning your car and learning what everything actually does, and figuring out how to fix it. And having an amazing community to boot!. I enjoy it.
