You won't be missed (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 day ago by funkajunk@lemmy.world to c/linux@lemmy.ml

I changed my main machine over to Linux in the beginning of April, setting it up on its own NVMe so I could keep my other drive with Windows 10 intact and dual boot when needed.

I've been having a blast - ricing hyprland, better workflows, great gaming experiences.

Then yesterday I realized that I hadn't actually bothered to dual boot once since testing out the Windows entry in my systemd-boot menu when I first set it up.

Guess who just gained a 1TB drive to install more games?

I wiped out the Windows drive with no remorse. Damn, that felt good.

Goodbye Windows, you won't be missed.

I did almost the exact same thing, on the same timeline! Installed Bazzite on a second NVMe sometime in the spring, and it's been my daily driver for months now. For the first couple months I was swapping back and forth due to some graphics driver instability, but that's because I got a 9070XT at launch and it took a bit for the Linux drivers to get to where they needed to be. That's pretty much sorted now though, and I can't remember the last time I booted into Windows.

I might use mine to try other distros. Bazzite has been great so far, but I'm not sure I'm sold on immutability and I might try a non-Fedora based distro.

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.
