Zorin is a good OS but IMO it’s a little too simplistic for most people who know what an operating system is.
But as the video gets at, the question of “when will Linux be better than Windows” is solidly “today”. MacOS is probably still “better” for someone fully invested in the Apple ecosystem. But Linux is not far behind that either.
Thank goodness, the fan has a mind of it’s own sometimes.
If I was the tyrant king of Lemmy I would force all communities to do this
It’s my understanding that anything doing this would also need to also emulate Chromecast, since the “cast” buttons inside the Amazon Prime/Netflix/Spotify/etc apps uses the proprietary Chromecast protocol.
Although I think I’m doing something wrong and the memory in modern games is just dynamic so the correct location can’t be found with just the memory addresses.
OK that’s the same thing I was suspecting. I noticed the memory addresses had similar names, but there was no way to search for partial addresses or anything.
I couldn’t get Game Conqueror working on Bazzite. PINCE worked, but I couldn’t use any existing CE configs, and saving my own didn’t work the next time I loaded the game either. That could maybe just be a Silksong thing but I’ve never had that issue before.
Not a dealbreaker for Linux, but it was the one time I remember thinking “this is a lot easier on Windows”
I’m rocking Bazzite and the only time I wanted Windows was when I got stuck on a boss in Silksong and wanted to use CheatEngine.
Linux holds a 63% share of global server infrastructure.
How is that not 95%?

I still can’t believe that in the year of our lord 2025 Linux is the better option for most gamers.
This is too funny. Windows is 30 years old. If they couldn’t fix it by now they probably don’t have the capability.
Oh man, I suspected that was artificial! 😡
I’m wondering if you have the “cookie notices” and “annoyances” filters disabled? They are not checked by default. It’s under settings > filter lists. FWIW the page loaded cleanly for me.
Framework, but their laptops are also about twice as expensive as equivalent models from other brands.
Eh, I just ran some comparisons and Framework is only about $100 more than the cheapest equivalent in another brand with the same CPU/Memory. $200 more with Windows.
From their website:
Computers, notebooks, PCs and laptops from TUXEDO Computers are not mass-produced or off-the-shelf. Each device is individually assembled, installed, configured and tested for you.
Very easy to use… once up and running. But there are other distros out there (Bazzite comes to mind as a good example) that “Just work” on a level even Macs can’t approach. Installation is the only “complicated” part but I’m sure we’ll see some manufacturers installing Bazzite by default in good time.
You’re absolutely not wrong.
But I’m still gonna clap.
Not defending the behavior in question, but Linux nowadays is MUCH simpler to understand than Windows or MacOS. It is by far the easiest operating system to change to, and the easiest to learn if you are somehow not familiar with any. From a user standpoint it’s the least “techie” OS now (aside from mobile OS of course).
What you describe about “needing to take courses” was true ten years ago, it was probably true three years ago. It is just simply not true now.
Oh my goodness automatic theme transitions finally!
I upvoted you, but I do feel it’s only a matter of time before the open source community outpaces Apple as well. Just a few short years ago the “year of the Linux desktop” was a joke. Now for many, Linux is unquestionably the better option.
Imagine having the option to be-exactly-like-MacOS-if-you-want-but-aren’t-forced-to (basically what’s happened with Linux and Windows this year). It would be game over for Apple, at least from a software perspective.
