Linux Mint Cinnamon - Наука та технологія
I've been using Linux Mint for 2 and a half years now and it's been excellent. It's a lot more customisable and flexible than Windows, and never forces crap onto you. I do still use Windows for gaming so haven't completely abandoned it, but I'm now 50/50.
Living the "Windows Free" dream here for some time now, I smile every time I read about a new foray of the Microsoft boys into darkness and corruption lol. I guess unless your work is locked into Adobe, it's now possible to escape with confidence. One interesting sidelight, the Lutrus gaming community has made some gigantic strides into AAA level gaming. Check their forums for working 'copy and paste' setup scripts for your favorite games and see if the solution to escaping MS has been discovered for your favorites.
Just finished installing Linux Mint about 40 min ago. Have similar hardware. 😊
Awesome Eljo let me know u get on im very happy hope u r too
@@englishbob4101 So far, so good. Had no problem with the Nvidia gpu.
@@eljo1601 You will be sorry.
I have an old mac mini from 2012, the crap i3 version. The latest macos didnt work for it, for some arbitrary reason. Well now i'm using the latest linux mint XFCE with the compiz 3d cube and emerald window decorations. Wobbly windows and everything. It works fast and perfectly fine!
Just need to check Mac support. You need a mac that's less than ten years old if you want to run a supported build of MacOS on it (don't be afraid of installing Monterey, it still gets updates for maybe a year to come yet), but you can still run Linux on it very well indeed once you get around the boot system. Mac hardware is usually far more suitable for Linux than the myriad of hybrid MS machines, the build quality alone speaks volumes. As far as OS's go though ...Linux wins out over OSX and 'Doze every day of the week. Just stay clear of that borked 'buntu base. HTH matey.
I've been on Linux Mint since 2020, and it plays modern games very well: Cyberpunk77, Days Gone, Metro Exodus, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, The Last of Us, Control, etc. (5600X & RX6600). Linux Mint is also installed on my non-gaming laptop and runs great.
I'll never go back to Windows.
Watching this on Linux Mint and smiling.
Eb!!! UA-cam lost you for a while, but now here you are! Back on the train with ya buddy, missed ya!
I've been on Linux Mint for a decade now. I've recently delved into LMDE to remove the last ties to Ubuntu. I have never regretted leaving Windows.
Honestly, anything with kde plasma is a free replacement to windows
Version 6.0 is awesome. I'm really happy with KDE Neon.
Any gamers out there who have an old Windows 10 mid range computer I recommend turning it into a Linux gaming PC by using the Garuda distro is based on Arch Linux and is similar to SteamOS you have full control over your work habitat and is more advanced than WIndows Microsoft should be a dead subject. CAUTION Some Steam games will break on Proton most games will work on Proton 9.0 or the actual Proton Experiment you will just have to flick through Proton to figure it out but here's a freebie for you.
Fr , a bit lower but stable and smooth fps in Linux unlike Windows. Been a Linux user for 3 years , currently on Endeavour OS. Glad I switched to linux , never looked back to Windows.
I ran mint for about 2-3 years & just this year I switched to openSUSE tumbleweed running gnome & its been a great experience so far. Mint will always be one of my favorites next to opensuse.
I use Garuda Linux for gaming and Windows 10 for specific tasks I'm not upgrading by choice if they spam people with full screen ads I'm abandoning Microsoft all together if that's how they want to act and only care about themselves not others.
@@TechnoMinded-qp5in No one said "full screen ads" You can turn the ads off, it's not hard.
I could not miss it out of how you've set the vertical panel just like on MX by default :D
I run Linux Mint Cinnamon and MX Linux on my Dell T1700 i7 PC with 16GB ram on two 500GB SSD's and both are rock solid and smooth. I have been Windows free for a fair few years now and don't miss it one iota. I have used Linux on all my laptops and on an old Macbook from 2012 with no problems.
I tried to jump to Linux a couple of years ago without fully committing and jumping Distros left and right on a secondary. Now, it's been about 3 weeks that i switched my main PC to Linux Mint and I'm satisfied with the transition. I am also a little more at ease to customize the experience I want with my Linux so now I have Waydroid to play Android games and I have now customised my dual boot on another nvme drive with Holoiso so thanks to that unnoficial SteamOS experience, I am even been able to play some (not all but more still) modern games that gets blocked with those pesky Anti-cheat programs. Linux Mint is however the OS I use most of the time. That being said, i should add a CPU usage widget on my desktop too ;)
I have Mint Cinnamon running on a secondary PC. It's a Beelink Mini S PC with 16Gb RAM, 500Gb SSD and an N100 processor. Of course, I needed to go into Software Manager to upgrade to the 6.5x kernel for WiFi to work. 5.15 is just too old for it! My main PC runs KDE Neon with Plasma 6 though.
Why didn't you install Mint Edge? It has 6.5 kernel by default.
@@johanb.7869 It wasn't out when I installed Mint on that PC. Memory is hazy, but I think that machine started out with 21.2 or 21.1.
Long time Arch user, recently had to redo my system, decided to just try Mint again on a whim since it had been years since I'd last ran it. Using newest Edge ISO and it has been wonderful. So much polish here, and so far all software and games are working just as they did on Arch. I guess (at least for me) being on the bleeding edge isn't as necessary as I thought.
Somehow I didn't get along with MX, so now I use LMDE. Its Debian ready to use, great for beginners like me.
I to am an older gamer and I run Manjaro Linux over the last 4 and a half years and its been great even with new games.
That is of great interest to me. Can you run for example the Assassin's Creed games, and Horizon Forbidden West, GTA 5, Cyberpunk, Witcher 3? Those kinds of games?
@@andreasplosky8516 yes gta5 ,Witcher 3 do run fine as i do not have the others cant say, some other games i have played recently such as Sunkenland , techtonica , Valheim , Sniper Elite 3 and 4 , Satisfactory all seem to run fine for me.
I'm also on mint day 3, a bit of hitch here and there , all else is fine. I've been playing warframe on proton and yes it had issues but hey, the os is free and lightweight so i can bear with the small issues
NOW STICK TO LINUX MATE ..... THAT'S WHAT I HAVE DONE DUMPED WIND-BLOWS COMP LATELY AND MOVED ON TO LINUX UBUNTU 23.10 AND WAITING FOR THE UPGRADE TO 24.00
I've now got Mint Cinnamon running on a 2015 Macbook Pro 13" after MacOS self destructed. It's fine, it does what MacOS did and isn't trying to force me onto a subscription service or spying on me at every opportunity. I've got a couple of very old games running but can't seem to run City Skylines or Prison architect yet. It might need updates or something.
You might need to set the proton version to 8.0 or thereabouts, for it to work. And make sure the game is stored on a linux formatted drive. Cities Skylines is a memory hog too, you'll need at least 16GB before it'll load and work reliably. Prison Architect might need proton experimental from reports on protondb.
@@LArmor6S Thanks, that's helpful. I'll try Proton experimental, I was running it under Lutris and was glad to see it load at all as it even makes my desktop chug.
Mint is proper mint
Why the 1280x720 resolution? I thought you had an Acer monitor 1920x1080 resolution🤔 Or is it because of the stroke you had? BTW I had my first total freeze on MX last Wednesday. Had the same now on KDE Neon, Peppermint 10, Pop OS and Debian Xfce. Nothing worked anymore only reisub. Why the Ubuntu based and not the Debian based EB?
Probably a kernel issue Johan. My MX is humming along like a hummingbird on amphetamine just as it has done for months. Like you I can no longer understand why anyone would run any 'buntu based system any more - it's basically a wannabe MS system where THEY make the deisions and the user doesn't now. Don't get me wrong though, Mint is superb, but always ALWAYS go for the Debian based rather than the borked 'buntu base. Peace matey and stay free.
@@stationsixtyseven67 You too Ghosty😉
How do play the good games on Linux? Just asking? There's a million things you can't do on Linux or are just plain too much trouble to get working.
Quite a lot play well under Proton which is the same layer the Steamdeck uses. The intrusive anti-cheat enabled games don't work, nor should they. No one should want a kernel level big brother.
some anti cheats do work but some companies (ubisoft) are to lazy to enable 1 singular setting, games that are made y valve and even apex run well on linux
There's also million of things you *can* do with linux. If you are unable to fix issues yourself, do something else. Life is too short to waste your time, pick your battles and do stuff which is important for you and you can tackle it effectively at this moment of life. (I'm using linux in my household over 15 years without any windows machines, and I rarely even run into some dilemma how to do something on Linux. Last time I remember some issue was my cable TV provider changing settings on server to not allow streaming for linux machines, and that was super easy to solve, I cancelled the subscription and stopped watching TV and paying monthly for unimportant stuff, win win situation overall).
get rid of the single 8gb stick, keep the matched pair, better to have 16gb in the form of two 8GB sticks than have 24GB in 3 8GB sticks, ryzen REALLY likes dual channel ram, that third stick will murder your performance in alot of games
+1 Dual channel is the way.
After using KDE Neon, I said goodbye to Linux Mint.
Restoring the folders in home directory was fun
Why not LMDE?
I have a pc with 12 core 20 threats i5 and Geforce rtx 3070 12 gb ddr6 ram and 32 gb ddr5 ram memory. I have Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and totally happy with it. I think I will attempt an upgrade when the 24.04 final version is released. I only play newer games, but haven't found a way to game on Linux yet. A work in progress. So still on Win11 for gaming and I really don't mind it that much, but when I can play all my Steam games on Linux, there will be no use for Windows and then it's bye bye Windows.
@dreaper5813 It is to me, I'm not that fast since I'm 70. I love rocket League, but I can't make it work in Ubuntu on Steam.
I'm on tuxedo os right now im thinking about moving to bazzite but I still need to gather more information specifically about the shits show called Wayland
Wait what? Rehasing newer games? What does this even mean?
I run Mint_EDGE, new computer, new games, linux hostile hardware = nvidia + intel + corsair, so far so good, exept dlss3. Im going to try mx KDE, just because we can!
Yep, Linux will go high, especially after current situation in Ukraine. Internet market segmentation. Belarus already partly closed from the Western gaming platforms ( which was terrible in the last decade )
font rendering on linux sucks, so is sound quality and video playing .. i have tried couple of distros.
i think linux havent install driver for ur gpu, u can do it manually simply sudo apt install mesa thought
Have you check both wayland and x11? Have you tried pipewire or pulse audio? Have you enabled video acceleration?
Skill issue or low end PC is the issue.
@@bitterseeds I’m a full time software developer and i have decent pc with nvidia gpu. I have installed linux drivers and shit correct way on debian but same issues exist. This issues isn’t just happening with me lots of tech reviewers been complaining the same. It’s universal and it’s real. Linux has some limitations dude you gotta accept.
@@ImRiz1 Yeah, I guess some folks have to deal with some things. I'm a Sr. SRE and have been using Linux since 1995. Yep. I'm old. :D
I've used multiple distros with Nvidia and AMD cards. I get you're having problems, I just don't and neither do most in my group of 30 at work. I dunno what to say, but sorry you're having problems. I just don't. As far as "tech reviewers" ... yeah, I've watched enough of them on youtube and read enough that I trust most of them as far as I could throw them. Hell, I fixed a bunch of issues on a coworkers machine today for them and they too are Sr. I guess it is what it is. Cheers.
😂your e-waste pc is better than my pc..
Why bother with Linux, it's not worth the trouble. Plus it's good for nothing.
I would do this..if I could run Rekordbox. I DJ. Could I?
