Back and forth like always
Any reason I should move off Win10?
Security updates stop next October.
Not if you have the enterprise LTS version. That is supported up to January 12 2027. And uh is free arr.
You should absolutly not pirate in an enterprise environment. Leave your pirate hat at home. Remember that it's bossman's money.
I totally agree with that. Don't get me wrong I never said to pirate in a enterprise environment. But at home might be a different story.
You commented in sysadmin so I assumed you were talking about work.
If you have low blood pressure issues, moving to win 11 is a great way to increase it.
Do you hate everything about windows 10? Upgrade to 11 and everything is different just to say that it is.
Yes, Linux doesn't spy on you and let's you do more customized stuff
I think accounting might kill me
Linux is great, but most games still require Windows.
If you already use Steam, you might be surprised by how many games are supported on Linux now. Lookup protondb.
According to protondb, only 40% of the top 1000 games work, or am I missing something?
40% are verified as at least playable on the steam deck. Another 40% seem to have no rating at all.
74% are at least gold tier in user ratings, which basically means they run fine.
Are you going to claim that you play 400 games, let alone 1000? Besides, you can always use windows in a VM and do GPU pass-through. But i guess the convenience of windows is hard to give Only time will tell when people will get fed up of taken for a ride by corporations.
Source? I game a lot on Linux and have only ever found two games which I couldn't play on Linux. Genshin and valorant which have incompatible anti-cheats.
That's not to say that most games which have anticheats don't work. A lot of them I've tried do work like helldivers 2, ow2, titanfall 2.
That hasn't been true for years.
If you can invest 30 bucks, crossover claims to make any windows app work seamlessly in linux. Otherwise, there's still wine to cover 90% usecases.
Worst case, you can run windows in a VM.
Anti cheat forces most people to still run windows for a number of games
Then this discussion doesn't apply to those people. I don't like the argument that Linux isn't ready for mainstream yet but the reasons quoted are often some game that is itself a niche.
Edit: this is why I specifically said 90% use cases in my previous comment.
Its going EOL soon? Its called planned obsolescence
