This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Honestly I've been eyeing Linux more and more, but it also scares me a little. What I'm mostly worried about is losing any functionality I've gotten used to.

Do it. I was where you are 2 months ago. Everything isn't perfect to where it was but I don't mind it and am not looking back.

Dumb question. Can you play games that don't officially support Linux? The oblivion remaster that came out today for instance

I'm due for an OS reinstall and maybe this is the time for the switch

https://www.protondb.com/ if you didn't know about protondb it's really helpful to look for game compatibility. Proton is what lets most windows games run on linux, and is easy to turn on in the steam compatibility settings.
