Well there’s the small matter of the new computer

But oh NOW you tell me I don’t need to wire $600 to a random person

Soon ™

So here’s a single data point for you, in a good couple months (for money reasons) I was gonna switch over to Bazzite or another distro if it came preinstalled

So with a sample size of 1 we know 100% of people you’ve found are switching to linux

Oh yeah that’s 100% what I was planning to do, I’m just talking with a few friends who actually know computer stuff so I can have a selection when I consult the Linux wizards once more

Yeah I was looking at some AMD stuff and pretending all the tech specs make sense

Alright thanks! I was probably gonna make a follow up post specifally for hardware today just so I can ah more info

Ah good to know, any recommended parts I don’t really keep up with hardware

Oh I highly doubt something has Linux which is why I wanna figure out installation and stuff

Good to know

Well that’s quite the resume! Yeah idk if I mentioned it to you but I was planning on using bazzite first

Thanks for the input, like I said though in my post I’m not really looking for something I can fiddle with but thanks for advice

Good to know

Yeah currently my main concern is actually getting the process started when booting, cus it sounds like once things are rolling bazzite handles the rest

Alright I’ll probably stick to whatever’s on my steam deck then since it ain’t broke

As for whatever new (prebuilt) PC I was gonna get I was gonna get Linux going first thing after I finish booting up the computer and speed running through the first time set up on windows (skip sign in, one drive all that)

I looked on the bazzite website and I’m assuming as long I select whatever hardware I’m using (or planning to use) I’ll get the correct version

Ooooooooo that sounds nice

I might just go from Amazon depending on hardware and price but I’m definitely gonna add this to my list

Ah nice, yeah I was thinking bazzite since it looks hard to break based on what you’ve all been saying and KDE so I have some vague sense of familiarity between windows and my steam deck

Ah that makes sense (i think)

Thanks!

Thanks for the info, I was probably gonna try bazzite with KDE first
