Linux for gaming and most other use cases, Windows for the one proprietary application I use. Although I suppose I might go IoT LTSC.

IIRC W11 share is barely near W10 and they are already forcing it out and crapton of perfectly usable hardware, if it is not planned obsolescence i don’t know what it is!? Fuck microsoft!

I want to point out, planned obsolescence only really applies to their surface offerings.

Dariusmiles2123,

Why? I’ve been running a Surface Go 1 with Fedora since 2020 and I plan on keeping it until 2029 at least.

So I can’t see the planned obsolescence except if you meant the ability to upgrade its internals…

I was pointing out that M$ neither made other hardware that doesn’t support W11, or (directly) profits from hardware being outside support for W11. So planned obsolescence doesn’t really apply in any way to 99% of cases people try to say it does.

Dariusmiles2123,

Okay I understand now, but I think the formulation could have been better then😇

I left Windows ~2-3 years ago since I got tired of having to keep up with ways to disable the MS account requirements or disable the ads every time there is a major version upgrade on a platform I use every day.

I’m on 12, and will be upgrading to 13 when Trixie hits stable.

matrixrunner, do games w I really need these games ported to Steam. What do y'all have on your lists?
@matrixrunner@lemmy.world avatar
  • Halo games after 4 (Just add them to the MCC, 343! Even as add-ons, FFS!)
  • Anything and everything by Vanillaware, but especially Muramasa: The Demon Blade
  • Rock Band 4 (I know Harmonix did a crowdfunding campaign for a PC port; I bought into it and I’m butthurt it failed)
  • Time Crisis (any and all of them, but 1-3 first)

what other games besides halo 5? Also why halo 5

Also why Halo 5

Complete the collection.

Fireteam Raven could be fun, too, but that’s a pipe dream

@vikingtons@lemmy.world avatar

I see. Given the general reception of the 343 games, it’s a little surprising to see people ask for 5 in its entirety, though I will admit there were moments of fun to be had with H5f.

I’m not sure what fire team raven is, will need to look that one up.

Been using Linux for years and the only issue with it is the incompetence of big studios. And them going out of their way to make sure stuff doesn’t work on Linux.

I don’t know. If more devs start to support Linux, I probably will.

Linux. I’ve been putting if off because of hardware reasons that would be annoying to explain beyond the solution is upgrading the motherboard, which is bottlenecking me anyways.

I have procrastinated the switch this far, I’ll be damned if my laziness gives in now! Lol

I’m gonna switch to Linux. My laptop still works fine, no need to upgrade yet.

I’ve gotten to a point where the quality of a PS2 game is higher to me than most AAA releases. I mostly play retro games, more open multiplayer games that don’t block users like TF2(and TF2) and indies… so, no. I don’t really need Windows for anything.

The only real reason I’m still on Win 10 is because of Escape from Tarkov and Photoshop. I need to get a new m.2 and just start sorting through my crap I guess but I haven’t gotten the motivation yet lol

I keep recommending BazziteOS but Jorge Castro over at the universal Blue project has a really good point “Most people don’t install their operating systems” and that plain fact is what stops people from moving to Linux.

Valve has momentum because they are selling you a system with the OS already on it. Sell more gaming PCs with pre installed Linux on it and the support will follow. Valve’s first attempt at getting Linux based gaming hardware out there failed but that didn’t stop them and the real push is coming this time.

If you do install your OS (most people here have once or twice), try Bazzite out. I’m running it on the minisforum Bd790i with a radeon 7800xt and it works great!

I don’t like the rootkit. I do everything I possibly can on Linux aside from the one game that requires it. That said, since they started using the rootkit, there has been a steep drop-off in bots in the game. As in I don’t see any anymore. So, annoying and a huge security risk? Absolutely. Dubious? Maybe? Depends on what you mean.
