I just started Shin Megami Tensei Digital Devil Saga. It’s a weird one and I love it! The atmosphere is incredible and the systems are really fun right out of the gate.

I also have a playthrough of Trails in the Sky SC going on and it’s so charming. Great turn based combat too.

Aaaand I also tried out Slay the Spire for the first time to kill some time here and there and I have to say this thing should be regulated. So adictive!

I think immutable is great for everyone, I struggle to find a point against it but maybe I’m a supernoob too hahaha (I use NixOS, btw)

awesome!

Yeah some people for sure will come to Linux, and that’s good. Maybe that PewDiePie video (as much as I don’t like it) will have some impact too.

The biggest hump is probably video games, even I do most of my gaming on Windows. I guess Valve is making really good progress there, but I don’t think we’ll see mainstream Linux native game development any time soon.

Also, sounds like there are some cool people at your university!

this is awesome, thanks!

Heck yeah! I hear a lot of people go to Mint as their first Linux distribution. I don’t know what the experience is like now, but it’s probably good for newcomers. I think EndeavourOS is another good one. Right now I’m fully invested in NixOS, but it’s not beginner-friendly at all. I think it’s the best OS out there right now, though, so feel free to check it out!

Sounds interesting, I’ll check it out.

Luckily, I have the ROM part covered, but thanks for the pointer 👌

Why is everyone so sure that W10 support ending will have its users stampede towards Linux? I think most users don’t care about support and will happily run an outdated OS. They’ll probably switch to Apple if they are concerned with that. Am I being too pessimistic?

Yeah I’ve sometimes used all those sites at some point, but they’re so vast (or have only manuals, like vimm’s lair). I was interested in finding something a bit more curated and game-oriented.

Thanks! Didn’t know about this one.
