Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

    Orca

    Did you try the windows version of Orcaslicer running on wine bottles? Also did you check out Cura as an alternative?

      Not tried any Bottle installs yet. Been playing with Bottles recently trying to get Solid Edge to install (but that’s just not gonna happen, something is missing and install always errors out).

      Used Cura a couple years ago prior to Orca when still using Windows. I did try running it again on Kubuntu, but it’s changed since running it before. Seems more geared toward Ultimaker printers now. While it will connect with a stock Creality printer, I’m running a modded printer through Klipper/Mainsail on a raspberry pi. Software just would not see my printer on the network.
