      Nice comment, but one correction: What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
      Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
      Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

    During Christmas 2019, I put together a Linux computer for my father who is in his 70s. Before that he had an old Mac OS X El Capitan iMac which was no longer suitable for upgrading (2GB of RAM). This Linux computer is using Gnome desktop environment, and my father is very poor at using computers. After a few hours of training, the machine is now his daily driver - internet, email, scanning, printing, viewing photos and pdfs, playing music. He has put his slow iMac away and is using this machine without a problem.

      you can run a modern linux distro on an intel imac pretty easy. you can even use dosdude1's installer hacks to (reliably) run up to high sierra if it's 2008 or newer. heck, even my powerpc ibook g4 will run modernish linux kernels if I compile them myself (since most distros dropped non-64bit power cpu support).

      @@Drone256 So obviously we want to completely disable the update service in Services.msc. But you probably already did that. However, the other thing that needs to be done is to go to the Scheduler and make sure to disable or delete the scheduled tasks that are set to occasionally run those services. Very sneaky how those were put in there. Now there's also another layer that can be added on top of that in terms of changing policy groups or something like that. I forgot exactly how it's done but I can find it if the other stuff doesn't work. However, it may only work for some versions of Windows 10. I myself recently installed the LTSC version and set it to never update. My 10 Pro I'm using right now on this older computer hasn't updated itself in literally 3-4 years, but I don't think I did the group policy thing on it. TBH I don't remember what I did on that. But, on the LTSC, it was just the 3 mentioned things. And of course you better believe I never use Windows legit :D

      Oh, and, basically, no distro makes any money off _installs_ as it's illegal to sell the "product"/"mental property" itself. It's "wholesale solutions", mostly support contracts, the bigger players are making money off Linux (smaller entities live on subsidies and donations, maybe selling DVDs and manuals).
      Let's, for example, dive a bit into RedHat (distro I started with in '96): IBM bought it for ~34bil US$ a year (or two?) ago so they could offer their own full in-house package without any 3rd party involved: from them housing your data, offering 2h-response on-site technicians packed with spare parts fixing your servers, down to 24/7 1st level support if an user's desktop wallpaper won't show up as intended: you pay, you get it. For your datacenter, for your staff of 1500 keyboard whackers. Windows? check. Mac? check. Linux? uuuh...check!
      Fun thing is: they don't want you to just download their nicely assorted packages. They try to make you jump through a few hoops, but they can't stop you, though, since they're legally bound to the open source license paperwork, so all you basically have to do is say "I am a developer" and download it for free at developers.redhat.com/products/rhel/download . Or you just download Fedora, formerly called RedHat Linux, which basically is RHEL's testbed distro ;-)
      ...and that's one of the fun things about Linux: even megacorps can't just gobble it up and put a price tag on it. (they do try though!)

      @ the poster of the first UA-cam-comment on this “thread” (I don’t-know what-else to call it):
      I have a Asus P43E-XH31. It came with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit.
      One day, [unfortunately], it refused to boot into Windows.
      I don’t know-why.
      It was working like-a-dream the day before.
      I press F8 upon boot (because the instruction-manual of the laptop says to press F8 to go to the [preinstalled/preconfigured] Recovery partition).
      Nothing happens.
      I manage to create a LiveUSB of a Linux distribution, on a friend’s laptop, and in that laptop, I go to the Help chatroom for that distro to try to get help installing Linux in a empty unused “D”-partition that came in my laptop straight from the factory.
      I get assistance installing the-Linux-distro in there.
      After I do all the steps counseled by the Linux-distro helpers, I restart my computer and what-do-you-know?: The “G.R.U.B.”-Bootloader immediately-detects my Windows-7 “C” partition, the Recovery partition, and the partition where I installed the-Linux-distro. The “G.R.U.B.”-Bootloader even allows me to select [and go to] the Recovery partition if I want to.
      Linux basically saved my computer and made it usable again.
      P.S. I have since been-able to go to Windows again, without any problems, and if Windows doesn’t boot-up, I just go to Linux (which *ALWAYS* boots-up-on-me without any problems), and I access through-The-File-Manager the Windows-partition and get my files that I need (pictures, videos, music-files, Word documents, etcetera), and continue to work [/do my job] from Linux.
      P.P.S. To anyone that is reading my UA-cam-comment:
      You can't expect something that was not-designed for Linux to work-well under Linux. Same way I can't-expect the "Oregon Trail" computer-game that I played on the Apple PowerMac computers in my school's computer-lab in 1993 to work-well on my AST "Advantage!" tower-computer that has Windows-95 in it.
      The program has to be written for Microsoft Windows, or Linux, or Apple Macintosh, for it to work-well in Microsoft Windows, Linux, or Apple Macintosh, respectively.
      (Or in the case of Linux, you can also share the hardware-specifications with the Linux-Foundation (specifically, the Linux-kernel developers) so they can write into the Linux-kernel the drivers for that hardware / the drivers for that particular hardware.
      The kernel is the "glue" that allows the hardware and software to talk to each other. It's very important).

AntiX is not a bad OS, it just don't feel polished like the Ubuntu clones. So, maybe in a year if the PC is still kicking, or the harddrive finally fails (bad sectors) I'll switch to AntiX for this machine too.

      First, it's free. So if you try it you have nothing to lose but time. Especially since you can test the system of the usb stick without installing it (which you should do anyway to check any hardware issue before committing to the installation).
      Security and privacy are definitively big concerns but it's not something you will notice in your day to day use. What you're going to notice instantly is the software management and systems updates. You don't have to download any file manually you just find your app in the app-store and click a button, no install wizards at all, like you would do on a phone pretty much. This will also prevent you from downloading malicious crap from the internet if you don't know what you're doing.
      Performances will be roughly the same for gaming, some features from Nvidia cards like DLSS may be missing for a while since they update their linux drivers slower than the windows ones. However hardware having a rough time running windows will perform significantly better when running linux for pretty much anything else.
      The major drawback for some people I think is the lack of some very popular software like Microsoft Office or the Adobe Creative Suite, and if open alternatives just won't do the job for you, then it's probably better for you to stay on Windows for now. Maybe reconsider Linux again next year and see if something changed ?
      Customization can be a huge advantage for you, but it can be safely ignored if you don't want to spend any time on this, most users won't care at all I think. Having hundreds of different Linux distributions can be overwhelming at first. Just go with Pop!_OS LTS if you're lost.

The first time I tried regular DX games on Linux was in 2009. If it worked, there would be some dragons here and there and performance was nowhere near as good. These days, performance loss for a native Windows game is single digits at most and with the ACO compiler it can actually out-perform Windows. That said about the rate of advancement, just several months ago many games would be unstable for me with ACO w/ Radeon-git and Mesa-git packages. These days I've never seen a game crash.

    "I use Linux as my operating system," I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. "Actually", he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!' I don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "I use Alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU Coreutils, or any other GNU code. It's Linux, but it's not GNU+Linux."
    The smile quickly drops from the man's face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams "I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!" Coolly, I reply "If windows were compiled with GCC, would that make it GNU?" I interrupt his response with "-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even if you were correct, you won't be for long."
    With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I've womansplained him to death.

      That's about to happen very soon. All major game engines are switching from DirectX to Vulkan backends due to performance improvements. DirectX is not 100% working on Linux, Vulkan is. Valve is also putting a lot of effort into this as their SteamOS is based on Linux (basically a WM).
      With Vulkan and the current general state of software, you have to be a pretty bad developer to write code that DOESN'T work on Linux. It takes very little effort now to maintain compatibility with both systems (not that it was extremely hard before).

    • @elr77
      @elr77 4 роки тому +34

      There is actually a MASSIVE collection of Steam games that work on Linux either through Steam Proton or are native. According to the ProtonDB website, 6,502 out of 11,874 games tested and reported by Linux users work. This includes Nier Automata, Resident Evil 2 Remake, Metro Exodus, PES, Project Cars 2, Dead or Alive 5/6, The Tomb Raider trilogy, all the Metro games, and much more. Even some non-Steam games can be run on Linux using WINE/Lutris and DXVK. And with Lutris it is extremely easy to install these games. I play Star Citizen on Linux. The development of Vulkan has also helped a lot to really push gaming performance of Linux. This is also why many Linux users tend to buy AMD GPUs. AMD GPUs tend to get a much better performance boost over Nvidia GPUs in Vulkan. Windows users have seen this in games like World War Z when the Vega 64 outperforms the 2080ti. I get almost consistently get 50-60fps at 4K using my Radeon VII in most games at high/ultra settings because of the VUlkan API. Valve are also actively supporting and funding the development of gaming on Linux and have also developed a version of the Vulkan drivers that eliminates the stuttering issues with Vulkan in certain games.
      Another thing is Google Stadia is actually a Linux gaming platform. Stadia uses a costumed version of the Debian Linux distro with the Vulkan API. This also why it is taking time for games to come to Stadia. Basically, a lot of the game developers are working to rewrite their games for Linux and Stadia. And if you are into ray traced games, Vulkan also have ray tracing inside it.
      I stopped using Windows in 2015 and in that time, I have become so used to using Linux that I never even look at games that do not have native Linux versions

    one of the best things i´ve encountered with linux so far is that most distros will have a "try linux" option when you boot from the install media.
    i just broke my xubuntu install by trying to update the kernel (lost power. I know..) and the "try xubuntu" option means that I can save all my files and then reinstall.

    After reading some of the comments I think that some of the viewers have missed the point. This is just one mans opinion on why Linux is better that Windows. Really isnt it just horses for courses. Everyone is different and Windows, Mac or Linux, it truly does not matter which one we use, it is what suits us best. I am in my mid 60's and I am a linux user but I refuse to use an adroid phone (which by the way is linux based) but I use a iPhone which guess what is run on a form of linux albeit highly modified. My son is a passionate windows user and my daughter uses a mac. The system that suits you best is the one that offers you the user the most. For me it's Linux but I get that others like Macs or Windows for what ever the reason.
    So dont be down on people because they dont like what we like. I would hate to live in a world where everybody is the same
