  • I don’t agree with your Microsoft shills comment but, I do agree with the statement that a lot of the “don’t use Unix” posts are either people who haven’t actually tried it/echo chambering it or classic cases of “help I’ve tried nothing and I’ve run out of ideas”. You never see the same comments saying “Don’t use Mac” despite that MacOS is based off the same system and shares almost all of the points stated.

    As someone who actually jumps between windows and Mint, I can say that for the everyday person and even gamers nowadays it’s for the most part of seamless transition. LibreOffice is basically a 1:1 copy of MS office and I find my Mint system lightyears more stable then my windows 10 system. For gaming Steam litterally does everything for you now, you don’t even have to mess with wine manually anymore which was my biggest gripe. The only games I have found to not work are games that the devs for some reason decided to intentionally disable support for (talking about you Epic Studios and Roblox). I plan to fully nuke my Windows 10 install when Windows 11 is required in favor of just using a Mint install exclusively, I just lack the energy to do that change when I have a functional system still.
