One thing I give Linux credit for is how it handles updates. Like, yeah, Linux doesn't force updates, that we all know, but I like how at least in the GNOME desktop, there is no "Update and action" button, there is only the shutdown and restart buttons, where if I am to press either, the system will ask me if I want to install updates or not with a nice box to tick the option. Nowhere near as cluttered as it is in the picture.
I’ve been looking at mint but I’ve been using windows all my life. I’m worried about the steep learning curve and terminal “language”
Would a noob like me survive on linux for gaming?
The learning curve is not as bad as it used to be. Almost everything can be done through the GUI, many tutorials exist, and steam will run almost any game without tinkering with it. ProtonDB is your friend.
Tell me about it… As a stem deck user, I’d fuck proton If could
