    • Games through steam kinda just work. ProtonDB as mentioned can help you check for if specific games work, or if there are workarounds that can make them work. Some games might not be "verified" by Steam/Valve, so you need to go into steam settings and turn on "Enable Steam Play for all other titles" to play these, but they will probably still work, valve just haven't looked at them.
    • I've played a few games from fitgirl, Vic3 and F:NV as examples, I just put them into lutris and it works great.
    • Discord is an electron app, so it will work.
    • Image editing is slightly harder, paint.net doesn't work natively, and I don't know through wine. Nor do I know of an equivalent program, as you say GIMP just isn't quite it.

    As for distro, I don't have much experience with those that might fit you, so I can't recommend any specifically. But there are differences, is it rolling or does it have releases, is it mutable or imutable, what package manager does it use, which packages are available for it, which packages are installed by default, does it have a diy or more hand-holding mindset. All of these are important and will have an impact on your experience.

    • Yes you can just shove data onto an external hard drive. It doesn't have to be formatted in any specific way, Linux has drivers that can read NTFS and FAT.
    • If you use the same programs, and they use the same settings format, yes. If not, no... of course.

    It does help... you, since AMD is easier, whereas nvidia might need some work (fuck you nvidia

    )

  • That's great to hear, but we both still know the big three need to support it.

  • Well the Vatican doesn't count because... Uh... Uhm... It isn't a country, not a real country.

  • ~80 years ago, Labor looked to the Conservatives on what to do with their foreign policy and how to handle the Soviets.

    Today, Labor looks to the Conservatives on what to do with PIP.

    Nothing. Ever. Changes.

  • I use spacemacs, which is using emacs as a medium to summon the dark lord (vim)

  • I'm charging a 13 year old phone, yes it is taking a billion years.

    But it will be worth it. I will put postmarketOS on it and use it for like 5 seconds.

  • You are a proletariat, you are not going to be a scholar, you will not be a knight fighting (edit: actually dying, your value your life so little??) """""""""honorably""""""""" for your lord (lmao, why would you?), you are not even going to be a property owner, you are going to be a serf. You are going to live in a shitty house, with shitty clothing, doing shitty labour. Your life is going to be worse then it is today.
