Davinchi resolve installation process is the best example, why nobody wanna use Linux. Every time you wanna do something, Linux doesn't expect, you must suffer. And it's usually much harder to find valuable information on how to fix problems, then when you're using Windows

There's just no way to do a large number of things. If you're a creator who plays games with anti cheat, you're not allowed to switch (or you dual boot, and almost never use linux, because you're streaming/recording, and editing too much). And a big one for me that makes me feel doubts the most is that I can't connect Linux to my Elgato capture card. Super annoying.

arch is to lightweight fo most appliances for the most hardware compatibility is kali linux works even on most android phones

Consider Blender to edit your videos and Krita instead of Gimp as it is far superior. I use Arch BTW.

Linux is just annoying to use. You have an overwhelming majority population that grew up using Windows, with a fairly if not intuitive, then ubiquitous set of features, functionality, layout, etc. Every single time I try Linux, even the distros that are "like windows" (except that paid one that's supposedly super close to windows? I never bothered looking super deep into it) - anyway every time I try Linux I have the exact same experience: - Why the fuck is this here? - Why the fuck is that there? - Why the fuck can't I X? - What the fuck do you mean I need to install X manually from the CLI just to Y? So much design decision on these UX just REEK I mean absolutely STINK to fucking high heaven of "We didn't do it the way that the audience we're courting is expecting it to work because we obstinately refuse to do it the way Windows does it. What do you mean why? Because we don't wanna be like windows!" - Just a mountain of little annoyances and inconveniences that all seem to stem from this same sense of insecurity and inferiority complex towards windows UX. I hate to break it to people who like *nix systems, but Microsoft is fairly good at making functional and intuitive UX. (Win11 notwithstanding that thing is a dumpsterfire of stupid) However - also - fuck Microsoft, fuck Windows, Fuck Recall, MS, Windows, all their AI bullshit, they have their own sets of issues and complaints as well. Decent video, not a bad review, but I kinda disagree with the general takeaway of "Linux is good now and people just don't use it cause they don't know"

Oh~ Someone gonna realize that Linux Desktops is unicorns. They don't exist.

I used Linux in my entire undergrad and I became moderately adept at using it. But I think the reasons why content creators don't use it is because there's too many unknown variables. On Windows, open OBS, everything works. Open Davinci Resolve and everything works. Open source and customization means nothing if the software is just inferior. Why use Libre, when Excel is so much better and has so many more features. Discord (which I would assume almost every content creator uses) practically breaks ever so often on Linux. Almost any game near the top of Twitch's most watched categories require anti cheat software that do not support Linux. And the apps that you mentioned like GIMP are just inferior to the industry standard. Like why are scale, rotation and move in different tools rather than just one in GIMP? Davinci Resolve is the rare case where the free alternative is surprisingly better than the standards (Premier, Vegas, Finalcut). The main problem with Linux is that there are too many things that don't work out of the box, and nobody other than the 3% OS market-share that use Linux actually wants to go through a manual or building off of open source software to fix the issue.

THE FUGGIN JUST CAUSE 3 OST???

because it sucks.

Yep, android is not linux

*Can't find streaming content with gameplay from linux* *Doesn't look at lives streams of linux youtubers* Ah, I see the problem, let me donate some of my countless hours of footage to your cause.

Bsd recommandation of pop os. I mean, it's awesome, don't get me wrong. But there's a big change coming, so updates are temporarily paused.

I'm a Kdenlive user. Kdenlive has a much different workflow than your usual video editor, with its own pros and cons. Because it's open source and uses FFMPEG, it will decode and encode basically every format you throw at it on a huge range of hardware configurations, although encoding in an uncommon format will take varying levels of extra setup. On the other hand though, the effects stack is limited, doesn't always accelerate well, and just doesn't have a lot of the advanced features of your usual video editor. But for what it is, it is very lightweight and can allow a fast and efficient workflow. Btw, the ripple tool is basically your ripple delete under a different name.

I stream on Linux, mostly gaming so not Linux related content and I never learned any programming language lol. I edit my videos in DaVinci Resolve Free (on Linux ofc) and rather than using terminal to convert video formats, I use Shutter Encoder. Highly recommend that program, it's a godsend. But yeah it is a bit annoying that I have to convert video to edit, then convert back to upload to UA-cam/Tiktok etc... I DON'T use Arch btw, but good old fashioned Linux Mint 😎

Also why do almost no content creators use adblockers?

Easy anticheat works flawlessly on Linux mint there are no Problems so far :3 but i only use VRChat with it so i can't say how other Games might work.

The UX UI for gimp is a snap in the face…, LINUX OS and all distros HAVE to make the looks good enough to attract people.

As a longtime Linux user and sysadmin, gotta say it can be tough for content creators to make the jump. Hardware drivers for streaming gear are often spotty, most games are Windows-only, and latency issues can really mess up live streams. Real-time kernels in 6.12 are a step in the right direction, but still lagging behind Windows. Wine and Proton are workarounds, not real solutions, and while a split setup (like I do with two PCs) works for me, it's not realistic for everyone. Plus, anti-cheat systems can be problematic on Linux, especially with signed modules - it's a whole other headache as well as other proprietary (Nvidia) drivers. Also the grasp of Adobe or Davinci on stuff doesn't help with Linux on cutting. Shotcut and other open source software are nice once you get used to it which is the biggest hurdle in general for people: you have to learn new software and it's all about willpower ;)

The 1 in 50 figure is cool but i think this simply doesn't encompass people who use their computers intensively especially when they are working with others (video editors, file formats etc), using super specific software that just isn't worth porting to Linux (game capture) or simply don't see the "problems" we have with windows. And yes as some have pointed out but people will nor learn stuff they see as too technical (the command line etc) i myself might find it easy to install Linux but I have linux classes in uni and i have had to personally install Linux for 20% of my class they are engineers!!!

I don't know, probably because video drivers periodically stop working, needing a reinstall, and every time I update the system I have to shut it completely off, not just restart it, for the sound card to work again.

I used archinstall for my third arch install and it wiped my home directory 😥I think it must've been because I had an encrypted home partition and it got confused.

OMG you took way too long to get to the point. Gets tot he point at 35:59

Very well-rounded video! It's refreshing to see an outsider take a first look at desktop Linux systems who has some damn common sense. Personally I think it's just a combination of people not having heard about it, or having heard only lies, or thinking it's simply not an option because they rely on the latest versions of Adobe software and there's nothing more important about their experience using computers than appeasing almighty Adobe. I think also that Windows has tread an intentional path of making the system less configurable, harder to use for people who know what they're doing with computers, and in kind, making the users more dumb over time because there are fewer things with Windows that you can figure out how to do yourself. Additionally I think a very large part of why people *think* Linux systems are complicated compared to Windows, is because the years of intuition they've built for using and learning Windows, if they have any, are completely invisible to them. Why should you just know that the only way to install software is through downloading it from that software project's website, as opposed to a repository/"app store" like most Linux distros? Why should you know you simply can't change the "close, maximize/restore, and minimize" buttons without third party software? Why should you understand the core aspects of the Windows shell like the start menu, the taskbar icons, and especially the hidden system tray and not the fundamentals in KDE or GNOME? *And why the fuck should you ever learn to use RegEdit or anything in the registry ever if you wanted to change any one of a billion hidden options, it sucks so bad!!!*

I don’t see anything Linux offers to warrant me changing OS. Plus Nvidia support still isn’t as good on Linux compared to Linux

Hiya! Im late to the party, I use arch myself and i just use Tytan652's version of OBS which irrc has the gamecapture and browser source built in which is really useful. Its on the AUR though so you will need a package manager to install it

I will some of this actual video in one word people use Adobe products and Adobe products aren't usable in Linux.

I think the reason why people use Windows and not Linux is because of the actual content creation tools that help people make content. Adobe isn't supported by Linux at all, most concentrated use adobe's content library to make their actual content

Like they would know how to use Linux 🙏

Windows made people lazy in the computer world

I'm gonna be switching to Linux permanently next year when win10 support ends. I could do it now, but I'm basically just procrastinating because I don't want to deal with transferring all my files over again.

One neat thing about Kdenlive is that you can import another Kdenlive source file as its own video clip, which effectively allows you to split a project up into multiple subprojects. This can help speed production up when trying to make long videos.

people don't use Linux because it is really not a go to operating system

Most content creators use windows because its easy for them and it just works for them to get the job done properly. They probably know that windows is absolute crap (who doesn't) but they don't want to switch because they dont want to relearn how to use their OS or use a mac.

If Adobe Photoshop, FL Studio and all the pesky anticheats and games with those anticheats were 100% supported on Linux, I think Linux could actually become mainstream. People would just use whatever distro is the most mainstream, such as Ubuntu.

I got a buddy who asked me last week " I want to reset the cmos, should I unplug the power cable or leave it connected"

Spending the whole day tweaking to get the linux distro setup how you want it is also why most content creators don’t bother when all a content creator on windows just has to type in a singular commandline code from a website to install all necessary software, dependencies and updates, let it run for 1 hour and done. (ok perhaps a few more hours configuring and installing the games and OBS but no tweaking inside the OS necessary.

Linux is a powerful os and require powerful users to master it, let the normies enjoy their bsods...maybe one day ms will change it to green or red hahahah

For Kdenlive: If you look at the little toolbar above the timeline where you have the selection and cut tools the last one before the timestamps is a ripple tool your icons are different to mine it looks like ][ with arrows pointing out, so you select that you can, Shift+R to make your first cut, then Shift+( to the second cut which will delete the section before and move the rest back, if you wanted to delete after the second cut its Shift+)

Because it's crap even for consumers, Linux is crap. You have your gaming keyboard, mouse, microphone and other hardware that requires software that only works on Windows and Mac. Linux is shit, and it will remain so, and now that Linux Linus Torvalds and other big players have weaponized politics into it. The only company who's trying is Valve, they might be able to make it mainstream

Sorry but turn oil into steam is illegal in most countries.

Leepspvideo, Explainingcomputers and ETA Prime uses Linux for gaming or desktop sometimes

The majority of streamers barely know how to use OBS, let alone know how to install hardware. Windows is directly supported and already installed. That is your answer. And Mac OS has come a LONG way. I stream and game dev from my MacBook Pro.

Is that just cause 3 background noise for the vid

I used to do my game streaming from Linux, but you'd never see the desktop. I say used to because I only have 1Mbps upload bandwidth these days.

Compatibility and ease. That's it, really. Even as a long time programmer, I still main windows. I'd much rather get things done quicker than configure things to get to my goals. I can and have crippled windows quite heavily from things I don't need via tools such as chris titus'. Works enough, even for a dev.

YOOOO Content Creator that uses Linux here! Thanks for bringing this important topic up. It's something that I wondered if anyone noticed, given how monopolized the creation space has become towards Windows and MacOS, especially in gaming and videography culture (respectively). I use PopOS myself and have a System76 PC, and it has been the best purchase of my life. I will never stop promoting the use of Linux and FOSS tools - they give the most ownership and power to the user over not just their software and hardware, but also their IPs and privacy, especially for content creators. Again, thanks for your super important video!

Because its too complex and not compatible? I literally _can't_ use it because my VR games won't work and substance painter also won't work. Blender, unity, and non VR games do work but there's more hoops to jump through. It's much easier to use a windows debloater tool to get rid of all the telemetry and spyware and shit. Plus windows is familiar, not everyone, especially content creators who need to actually be able to focus on making their content has the time to relearn everything. Is it possible? Yes. Is it easy enough to be worth the benefits yet? Not really. I _have_ seen like 1 non tech youtuber using it, forgot the name tho. Some smaller channel.

I use gentoo as a daily driver, I'm a bit of a hobbyist but don't program or know how to code beyond extremely basic shell programs. I game, mostly singleplayer games with servers that can be hosted locally like terraria or minecraft and arma as well as halo mcc. Linux works great if you approach it as something entirely new because it's not windows

People don't know this but the ALSA abbreviation actually stands for Ass Sound Architecture. No one has bothered fixing the issue of blowing out headphones on startup and the drivers submitted to kernel level for audio devices are just terrible because the nerds writing them don't understand audio or the devices. This is reason enough not to use linux for content creation but the lack of compatibility with pressure sensitive 3d drawing tablets, ThunderBolt/Dante audio interfaces, video capture cards and all modern content creation software drives the nail in the coffin. Linux is DEAD to artists.

The most important thing is use products that fulfill your needs, whichever that works for you, don't use something just because of trendiness or hypes, if Windows or macOS is sufficed for your computing needs then just use that, it doesn't make you less capable than someone who use Linux, BSD, etc.
