do you use linux or windows? i use ubuntu!
For anything non-gaming I use Linux.
For anything gaming I still use Linux.
You had me in the first half. Not gonna lie.
I use arch btw.
I also use Arch, btw.
I use doors btw
I use Kubuntu btw.
Been 100% Linux for over 3 years. All my servers, my fancy gaming PC, my personal laptop, my side business laptop, my work laptop, my Steam Deck, all Linux.
No dual boot, I have a single Windows VM on my work laptop to test Windows apps because my workplace is a Windows shop.
I don’t miss Windows even a little bit. I am so much more free and enjoy computing way more now.
TempleOS
The only honest answer in the whole thread
Could you not make me feel miserable out of nowhere? I am a mostly decent person?
Linux
Permanently Linux since 2001. Debian is life.
Ay, recently jumped on debian!
Running debian on a vm, till I get familiar enough to fully replace my win10 os (probably in 9months max).😄
Same, since debian potato, and forced to use windows in my work.
Windows. /s
The diagram of Linux fans and Lemmy users is pretty much a single circle.
“How do I get my Mac to do this thing?”
“Use Arch”
i get to use linux at home, im forced to use and support windows at work
Both. I’d prefer Linux because it respects me as a user, but unfortunately too much stuff constantly breaks to fully convert. The moment I can play Assetto Corsa with all my mods using my wheel in VR I’ll consider fully switching. Many other games already work though, so I’m slowly converting to using Linux as my default and Windows as the exception instead of the other way around.
(I use Arch btw)
Which wheel do you use?
Forgot the number, but one of the most common Logitech ones. Right now I’m not even getting past the first hurdle though, which is getting Assetto Corsa with Content Manager and mods to start. I spent a few hours on it and then decided that I had better things to do with my time
The common Logitech steering wheels should work if you have the steam-devices package installed on your system. Alternatively you can get the necessary udev rules from the oversteer repo: https://github.com/berarma/oversteer/tree/master/data/udev
(oversteer is also pretty handy)
I’m on holiday right now but I can get back to you on how to get Assetto Corsa with Content Manager to work.
Oh this is useful information, thanks!
There are distros that don’t break
Linux, it fits my needs better on desktop, and is much less painful to troubleshoot than Windows, with more freedom and control than macOS.
On laptop Arch Linux with KDE because all is automatic, on gaming PC Arch Linux with i3wm because games and all runs so fast and so well.

Yes
windows ftw (forced through work) linux btw (because tortuous work)
Linux for gaming Linux for servers Linux for desktops/notebooks Linux at work Linux for mobile
Are there seriously no lemmy users on a Mac? Lol.
I use Debian.
I do use a Mac and I hate it… It’s a birthday gift from my family, because owning a Mac makes the “man”…
Uuhg, I always need to learn things twice… First how it works on Linux and than how to reproduce the same on Mac…
There are to many shitty workarounds that do not behave the same way Linux does even though it’s UNIX based.
- .plist files comes to mind
- how to make a samba share mount on boot/access
- Default’s to zsh
- Shitty default terminal and dumb keyboard shortcuts…
- Default applications are useless… (Thanks homebrew 👏)
I fucking hate it… And after 4 years of intense use I still do not understand why people would willingly buy something like that closed crap ecosystem. Maybe just a hipster thing…
lonely Mac user pops in to say hello
I bought a old Imac at a thrift store and put XFCE on it. It was a great machine until the power supply finally gave out. I would do it again if I had the chance.
When I was studying radio production at uni back in 2010, the Adobe Audition editing suite was rammed full of 2009 iMacs, all running WinXP. It was a bit of a headfuck for a moment, but iMac hardware was second to none, the uni must have got a decent discount from Apple to buy that many, and at the time Audition was Windows only.
And to be fair, they made for excellent editing machines.
Are there seriously no lemmy users on a Mac?
Artist are probably still on Reddit to access the larger user base.
My work computer is a MacBook since I need it for JAMF stuff but all my personal machines are Linux or dual-booted w/Windows
