They haven't gone overboard with THIS one, because they already went way the fuck overboard years ago and never got back on board
Man I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and make my next machine a linux one
I took the plunge about a week ago with Pop!_OS. It took a good 3 or 4 days before I started to feel really comfortable with things. (Which is probably because I'm really picky)
If you have the time to try it out (and remember, always dual boot so you have a fall back and can switch back when you need to) I recommend it. The last remnant remaining for me is Photoshop, and there's a GitHub page for downloading it with very few steps now.
Another easy solution for Photoshop is to run a virtual machine.
Yeah but the VM takes time to "boot" up and the folder structure isn't as clean, right?
I had a win 10 VM set up and it "booted" faster than my regular win 10 drive. I then switched to a win 10 LTSC VM and it "booted" a solid 10 seconds quicker on top of that.
