Dabbled with Linux over the years but have finally made the jump to using it as my primary OS. I tried a bunch of distros and settled on the elegant simplicity of Mint. Every game has worked just.. fine.
It feels genuinely refreshing to know nothing will change without my consent, I know I will not login one day to find a surprise cortana/copilot/clippy icon in the taskbar or an ad for Avowed waiting for me. I can't believe that is even considered a 'pro', but here we are.
AMD or NVIDIA user?
AMD. I think if I had nvidia I might've gone for Pop OS, I heard that has good support for them out the box.
Good to know. I'm NVIDIA myself
I'm running pop on 3 machines. One is an old Dell core 2 duo, and I'm amazed how quick it runs and never freezes (10g ram, 120gb ssd). Only issue issue have is the pop shop freezes up sometimes, even on my higher power machine. Otherwise, solid.
