Win10 on my gaming rig for compatibility and because I'm comfortable with the usage of Windows. Arch Linux with docker containers on the ol' server
Arch on a Chromebook, macOS on a MacBook Air, and FreeBSD on the desktop.
Nix and dual boot windows for vr only, but I might try vr on linux
donno vr is kinda obescure on linux
Win 10. But I have Hyper-V enabled so I guess it is technically Hyper-V as the os and windows as the guest os.
OpenSUSE for day to day
Windows for specific work related stuff
Windows 11. And I hate it.
Yes, I did try Linux. I had a great time. But unfortunately my Windows installation always breaks whenever I dual boot it with Linux.
Did you try installing linux on a partition
Yes, I partitioned my drive and installed Linux on that (I only have one SSD installed, it's a laptop)
Maybe once I get my desktop fixed I'll try it again. That one isn't "officially" compatible with Windows 11.
oh i think its better to install on another ssd
Yeah, that's what I've been told.
I'll check if my lappy has another SSD slot, because if not, then... dual booting with a broken Windows installation is my only option.
Work and personal: KDE Neon
Home media/gaming server: Bazzite
Debian Stable. I have a W10 partition but I don't boot into it very often. We're talking about a few times per quarter.
Windows 11 on my Surface Pro, Windows 10 on my main computer and bedroom computer (the smartest tv is a dumb tv connected to a cheap minipc), and Linux Mint on my server and old laptop.
Nobara!
Me too, love it
Which one?
Windows, primarily, because I need shit to just function. And there's no competition to OneNote and Office in Open Source land.
But I have multiple VM's and containers running lots of Linux stuff - on Linux boxes because it just can't be beat as a Host. Even VMware is Linux-based.
And there's no competition to OneNote and Office in Open Source land.
I'm curious what is missing between OneNote and something like Obsidian or any of the other notes apps.
I completely understand office though, i find OnlyOffice good enough that i run it even on my Windows setups but I can imagine there being features, keybindings, etc that are not present in any of the alternatives. I've also seen a lot of people switch to using Google Docs exclusively since it helps with collaboration anyway, but I hate how poorly it runs...
because I need shit to just function.
Yeah some things are just not there yet too, like VR... So understandable
I installed Linux on two Windows laptops so they would function better.
Kubuntu on the desktops, Linux Mint on the laptops.
Manjaro GNOME
Arch on my home laptop and travel laptop, Win10 on my pc
fedora.
Ubuntu , I tried switching to arch recently but I could not figure out how to mount my drive that has all movies on it so I switched back for now. Any tips and mounting a NTFS drive .
