Think of him what you want, but I think this nicely shows the problems that “gamers” will encounter when switching to linuxand gives a good view from outside the Linux community

He set himself up for failure again with PopOS. Cachy and Bazzite are much better choices by the other team members.

I mean, in the video, Bazzite was still showing how it’s not streamlined. I feel he was being too polite or dishonest so he doesn’t get cancelled by the Linux community. Sure, a couple of the situations were not Bazzite fault, but if it really was the year of the Linux, it shouldn’t be 10 hiccups from install to game. And that was still with his Linux experience.

if it really was the year of the Linux, it shouldn’t be 10 hiccups from install to game. It isn’t 10 hiccups from install to game, if you just install something normal like Ubuntu or Fedora! The problem here is that the noobs are getting seduced by useless meme distros instead.

How did this idea that Fedora is a no-brainer beginner distro take hold? Any distro that leaves it up to the user to install proprietary drivers and codecs via command line and then have to install a bunch of software before anything can get done is not beginner friendly by today’s standards.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
