      Been on Linux for 18 months as my daily driver. Can’t possibly love it any more.

          Because my crusty heart knows not but an abundance of hate, greed, and darkness.

          But maybe I’m give it a try later today, I dunno.

        Been on Linux for 18 years as my daily driver. Hate it significantly less than all the other options.

          Probably closer to 25 years here and I can only remind everyone who switches to Linux that Windows and Mac are quite painful to use when you don’t use them often too so don’t go by first impressions of comparing what you used for years vs. something you only used a couple of hours.

      I keep dual booting just because sometimes Linux does crap itself.

      I have been troubleshooting what’s going on with my kde desktop (both x11 and wayland affected) for about 8 hours no with no success. I have a zoom appointment this afternoon so I am glad I can still boot into (retch) Windows.

        What distro are you using? And what is the problem(s) you’re having?

        I ask because there’s a bunch of really smart I dividuals with extensive experience in Linux (not me, sorry) and from my experience, most people here love to help others troubleshoot Linux (along other OSs).

        I created a dual boot to test the waters for a HTPC, and haven’t had to go back once. But Linux mint did shit the bed just once recently where the wifi drivers died. Only solution was to connect a cable, download a kernel update, then back to 100%.

          Finally got mine fixed, something in .config was breaking the desktop. Narrowed it down to a few items and just didn’t restore those.
