Looks like they got their priorities right
We shall not stop until all the sources have been opened!
coding in windows is hard :C it keeps crashing my code! I can't open my code either, I may learn how to code in Linux soon if it is easy
What are you having issues with? What language are you trying to use?
the windows code :c I can use oepn code programs (I can't open my code)
I double-checked the meme and realized the wording is actually correct, I thought the meme regarded linux as a lanuage for a sec- sleep well everyone
Open code? Is this terminology used often?
Honest Question with a long windup: I'm not looking forward to the forced Win11 update, tried Win11 and would rather keep 10...
If I made the swap to Linux, what happens to my Steam Library? Don't many of those games need Windows to run? I have a SteamDeck and understand Valve has created their own thing to fool games into thinking their played on Windows, but that's just SteamOS for a handheld. Sorry, I know I can look up this information online, I would like to hear it from someone personally rather than some blog or website article.
Idk about Linux, but on Mac I can run most Windows games through Wine no problem. IIRC Linux has Proton, which is a better version of Wine that's built into Steam so you can launch Windows games directly from your native Linux Steam client. Unless you play a lot of AAA games I'd suggest giving it a go.
It won't give you any extra performance in games, you'll be using a Windows emulator to emulate Windows games in Linux. In the end, if you don't have enough time for troubleshooting (which will take a lot of time), it's not worth it. As others have said, "Linux is free if your time is free".
I beg to differ, I got 5 different games on the summer sale, and all I had to do was install and hit the play button. Proton had come along in a huge way the past few years, especially with the advent of the steam deck
