From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

League of Legends 🥹 But I guess I'm gonna find some kind of virtualization alternative or perhaps doing a dual boot for it with a bogus windows system

Keypirinha. Krunner is good but not that good.

Sharex. Spectacle is fine but not perfect.

I had to think about this quite a bit, there's hardly anything I miss. But the nvidia control panel has more options on windows. There are probably more options available using the cli, though. Generally I'm really happy since I switched a year ago.

Wifi + bluetooth connectivity simultaneous. It's my own fault, though, as the machine I run is an iMac 5k from late 2014...

Bug-free Skyrim. That's the only thing in the last decade I miss.

In my previous comment, I forgot to add the ability to easily clone one installation from one computer to another.

I’ve used Clonezilla on Linux but with mixed results.
