Latest winslop 11 update literally broke my computer. Chrome tabs lag, a 1080p video almost froze my computer.

Is this the end for personal computing?

Join us brother. Take the linuxpill

Imagine not buying a mac or taking the linuxpill anon

>>107878391
Gentoo doesn't have this problem.
>>
I have no such issues on my Apple MacBook Pro M5 running macOS Tahoe.

>>107878399
You still cannot play games on it can you.

Mac is planned obsolescence it works fine for 5 years then they unload a new os with unnecessarily fancy graphics and you cannot upgrade Macs so you have to buy a new one.

Grab an empty flash drive and google one of these OP. Takes 15 minutes and you're done.

The compatibility issues are really overblown. There are a few specific games that have weird lag issues when pulling up menus, but it's only really noticeable if you have a shit PC like I do. If you have Flatseal permissions turned on and Proton downloaded (Steam downloaded it automatically) everything will be fine

I wanna use adobe shit and CSP. Can I still join the linux side?
>>
>>107878481
As long as its not cowadoody, battlefield, riot games, or something similar, gaming is pretty alright. God bless Gabe
>>
>>107878391
Works fine on mine.
>>
>>107878563
wine used to solve that, at least adobe, check if it still does
>>
>>107878563
Linux has a fuckton of free available alternatives for the same services, and if you are really desperate for that specific program you can just use a virtual machine and run Windows devices on it. Though I would try the former first
>>
>>107878585
I've invest too much time on CSP and don't really wanna learn a new art software.
I don't like GIMP or Inkscape also. I'm learning Illustrator but I was considering Affinity but that shit doesn't work on linux too.

Almost a decade ago I decided I was tired of pirating photoshop and wanted to try finding something free, so I found out krita and started learning it. I was a windows fag and wouldn't consider ever using linux, I just wanted something less annoying to install. In hindsight that was one of the best decisions of my life. I'm so used to it now that when I look at photoshop I get completely lost.
>>
>>107878796
I was going to recommend Krita to him but I didn't know photoshop well enough to say for certain it could do all the same things. I've unironically never used photoshop for anything

i was messing with this shitty laptop and i put ltsc 2019 on it. desktop ram usage after install was only 600mb. im not even using windows 11, im on ltsc 21h2 and my desktop ram usage is 3-4gb at bootup

>You still cannot play games on it can you.
Only if a game is using Riot Vanguard, EA Javelin or Easy Anti-Cheat.
Battleeye and like 90% of other chink anti-cheats work without issues.
>>
>>107879434
Check out Puppy Linux
>>
>>107879606
>Easy Anti-Cheat
This one works too, if game devs check the "allow wine" checkbox
>>
>>107878513
the fact that it exists at all means linux will never be mainstream. Until the mere thought of "do I need to look up whether my game will work or not on my system" (outside of hardware based performance) is eradicated from linux, it will never take over from plug n play windows. You can cope all you want, but the general normie doesn't give a shit about your opinion and only cares if valorant or w.e fotm streamer slop game will work so they can follow along with their favourite e-celeb

>I want to use X
>You can't but you can instead use Y as a free alternative
that's not a fucking solution you retard
>>
>>107878391
Go back to 10 or 8 or jump to linux. 11 is a disaster.
>>
>>107879693
No, the solution is to find an old version that is compatible with Wine and run it

The better solution is to just not use loicensed corposlop programs.
>>
>>107879680
>linux will never be mainstream
I don't care tho this isn't a competition. If people want to stay on the sinking ship that's their problem
>plug n play windows
It was plug n play for me on Linux…

>>107879870
okay, but that doesn't change the fact that the general public play multiplayer games and half the anti-cheats do not function on linux. I agree that kernel level anti cheat is a cancer but it's also used by all the major players at this point and is genuinely here to stay
>>
>>107879680
normalfags don't even play games

CSP does work in linux btw

i like things that work, thanks

anticheat is a losing battle anyway. hackers are getting impossible to detect.
>>
>>107880003
a hypothetical losing battle has no immediate direct impact on functional issues of those (very popular) games not working. It also remains a question of those developers/publishers seeing success from that version of anti-cheat, whether any of us agree with it or not, and using it for their future products. So you're essentially blocking yourself from ever using anything from that company
>>
>>107878399
implying it wont uninstall the desktop environment randomly or some other dumb nonsense
>>
>>107879910
Honestly pretty reasonable.
>>
>>107878481
about macs, yeah it sucks.
their yearly os updates suck even more.

however you can install newer os's on unsupported macs without much issue with opencore. my mac mini 2012 is still perfectly fine for browsing.

Thanks for sharing, anon. What do you think about GIMP?
>>
>>107878391
Works fine on all my W11 computers.
