I hear good things about Chimera OS feeling a lot like Steam OS when you’re trying to get a similar experience for laptops, if that’s what you’re going for.

Keep a small Windows partition if you play any of those games with anti-cheat that don’t allow Linux.

Otherwise, almost everything else just works with Proton. It’s a lovely age.

My two favorite distros as well.

Mint Cin is a solid first distro. UI feels a lot like Windows and gives a comfy environment to learn in.

Far too little, far too late. Even if this was the most glowing revision ever (it isn’t, but even if it was), the trust is gone.

They found it, it crashed in SC.

Am the the only weirdo who swapped over to Linux without knowing a ton about it, and didn’t really have any issues? I just started with a Windows-user-friendly distro (Mint Cinnamon), and then just looked up how to get through any weird (to me) issues that I encountered over time. Gradually learned more about what’s under the hood as I went.

But I see these memes and stories about “I tried Linux, it lasted a week and I went back to Windows” here and there.

It’s not scary. Am I missing something? XoD

Feel your pain. I’m constantly thinking, what the hell do I have to do to get r/orioles to follow me over to Lemmy to grow the numbers? They are one of the only things left at Reddit that I regularly look at. But 99% of the mod and user base there just doesn’t care about the the issue.

Conversely, that means that at least sports spaces are among the least bot-spammed places on Reddit. So there’s that.

Please definitely don’t be discouraged in the slightest, TPM.

Single-game forums were almost always the smallest gaming subreddits on Reddit, often times being several orders of magnitude smaller than the “gaming in general” communities.

But that special feeling of having other people passionate about that specific game you love can’t be beat. Hang in there, and you’ll definitely grow and get that engagement in time.
