Good idea, after having just spent quite a while setting mine and troubleshooting them (first time samba user).

I haven't used the tool below, but I've seen it be recommended. Might it be kind of what you're looking for?

Hadn't heard of it before. Thanks.

No problem, I understand.

Has entered the Enterprise-only chat. :)

People are saying in another part of this thread that many games with anticheat actually work on Linux.

Same here. I'm going to be testing Mint and PopOS! soon.

I think this is the best assessment I've read yet of Windows 11. I just switched the OS on my work computer with a fresh install of Windows 11 and have run into a handful of issues and frustrations. This thing has been out for like 3 years now. It shouldn't still be this problematic. I may end up switching to a long-term support version of Windows 10 that goes to 2027 or 2029. Unfortunately that's only available for Enterprise editions, so I can't do the same at home. I'm soon going to be dual- and triple-booting Linux at home.

Plus one.

@Legonatic@lemmy.world @birdcannon@lemmy.world - you might want to take a close look at Bitwig. It's a top-notch DAW developed by former Ableton developers. I hear it's fairly similar workflow to Ableton, but also that it's better in certain ways. This is without even taking into consideration that Bitwig supports Linux. I don't have any association with Bitwig, don't even own it (yet?), but just wanted to let you know.

I think I've heard that some VST support may be tricky though. I could be misremembering, but also worth researching.

I haven't switched or started dual-booting yet because I haven't had time, but I've read the recommendation that the best way to do dual or even multiple boot is to have separate physical OS drives and select which one to boot from with the BIOS boot selector. Smaller SSD drives are pretty cheap these days, especially if you get them used on ebay or whatever. I picked up a Samsung 240 with 0% wearout for like $20 bucks.

I've been using LosslessCut for a few years now. It's really easy and smooth. It does exactly what I want and what the name says, and I couldn't ask for more.

I try not to let myself get affected by crazy anonymous comments on the internet. I definitely avoid thinking that they're any kind of majority. I figure that those comments come from a minority of people who are either really messed up, have an ulterior motive, or whatever variety of atypical motivation. If nothing else, it's better for my mental health to think this way.
