I am this close to go all linux, Microsoft. don't tempt me. only thing that make use windows is gaming and that too is slipping away because of steam

Just jump. I went Linux a month ago and never had to go back for gaming. I still have windows installed but I've used it only twice because music plugins are not compatible with Linux. Once I find a good guitar amp for my needs I can nuke windows entirely.

Are the plugins VST by chance? If so, check out yabridge, you can install the plugins with wine and even supports 32-bit plugins

Yeah, I'm trying to use neural DSP stuff along with guitar pro. Reaper works on Linux so the DAW is ok. I'll take a look at yawbrige, thanks!

Have you seen recent benchmarks? Windows games actually run faster on Linux at this point.

The only exception is the small handful of titles with anti-cheat set to to anti-linux.

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

The issue isn't benchmarks the issue is many popular titles won't run on PC without windows. Even wine isn't perfect.
