    You don't need a registered Linux account - except for the ones you need for all the forums you'll eventually visit 😂
    But for real, I made the switch from Windows 10 to MX Linux (KDE flavour) a little over a month ago, and I've been very happy with the switch. Linux wasn't really desktop ready 20 years ago when I tried it first, but with Vulcan and Proton it's catapulted forward. I don't like mindless capitalism, but the investment there's been these ~5 years has made Linux really competitive.

    16:48 I'm impressed that the transparency cursor visual glitch is present on Wayland with AMD as well. I thought it was only on Nvidia with Wayland.
    I use Wayland with the Nvidia production branch driver, and it's really solid. A way better experience than on X11, even with idle GPU temps or VRAM usage. The only problem is with Steam Hardware Acceleration flicker for now.

      Thats good you have had a good experience with nvidia under wayland, i have aswell but i just had to make sure that if anyone would install and use wayland + nvidia that if they had issues they could switch to x11 to see if those issues persits, if i didnt mention that it has problems then i feel like people would go "oh i guess linux sucks" instead of "oh i see its nvidia's problem not linux"

If you're already on Fedora, Nobara is probably a good shout as that's Fedora based. I'm personally on MX Linux (Debian based) and have had success setting everything up I've put my mind to, but it's taken a bit of research to get it working, so I wouldn't call it a gaming minded distro besides that it stays out of your way.

    Windows is no longer viable for daily usage in my opinion. All the new things being added to Windows these days aren't to make the user experience better, they're to make Microsoft more money. I don't see a future where Windows continues to be the dominant operating system, people really don't like Windows 11, and if Microsoft announces Windows 12 I think that'll just be the final nail in the coffin.

      Surprisingly people do like windows 11, i used to like windows 11 in its preview days but then they added all the advertising back 😂
      And then i found out its just a reskin ontop of a reskin on top of a reskin :)
