Yo linux team, i would love some advice.
I’m pretty mad at windows, 11 keeps getting worse and worse and I pretty done with Bill’s fetishes about bing and ai. Who knows where’s cortana right now…
Anyway, I heard about this new company called Linux and I’m open to try new stuff. I’m a simple guy and just need some basic stuff:
- graphic stuff: affinity, canva, corel, gimp etc… (no adobe anymore, please don’t ask.)
- 3d modelling and render: blender, rhino, cinema, keyshot
- video editing: davinci
- some little coding in Dart/flutter (i use VS code, I don’t know if this is good or bad)
- a working file explorer (can’t believe i have to say this)
- NO FUCKIN ADS
- NO MF STUPID ASS DISGUSTING ADVERTISING
The tricky part is the laptop, a zenbook duo pro (i9-10/rtx2060), with double touch screens.
I tried ubuntu several years ago but since it wasn’t ready for my use i never went into different distros and their differences. Now unfortunately, ready or not, I need to switch.
Edit: the linux-company thing is just for triggering people, sorry I didn’t know it was this effective.
From what I’m reading, Ubuntu is slowly turning into Windows.
Ubundows? Winbuntu? I’ll see myself out…
I mean, they’ve been partnered for a decade… EEE anyone?
I mean, Canonical is a for profit company so I’m not sure what anyone was expecting. Ubuntu had its moment in the sun where it was considered the newbie friendly Linux distro for free users but now they’re going pretty hard for corporate customers and enterprise features. Which is fine, they need money to stay afloat and some enterprises are into them so more power to them - they contribute a lot of time and money to various Linux projects. They’re the Debian derived redhat equivalent these days and that’s okay, if they pivot too far in their own interest people will just stop using their distro.
No…
Ubuntu is not very cool but they are not Windows.
Yeah, a company that’s been partnered with Microsoft for a decade, and has had horrible corpo ideas like selling user searches to Amazon and running ads in the terminal, has totally nothing to do with windows. Nope, definitely not spelunking in MS’s ass to get defaulted in WSL and Azure, it just happened because it’s the most beloved and bestest distro ever…
