I have a duel boot setup and it's been a year since I had to boot into Win11. Seriously concerned with what is going to happen when I have to use it.
Linux is winning the duel, it seems.
Well duh of course it is! Linux is after all at the cutting edge of future computing.
Unrelated, my ducking smart phone decided to autocorrect to that.
Thid is not really a battle. If you're a musician or graphic designer, or if you have exotic devices, the migration is impossible. I'm not talking about messed up drivers. My Linux PC can't handle the network card correctly, but it works like a charm with Windows. Believe me, I adore Linux, but for some people, it's just impossible to transition in its current state.
That's what fuel booting is for, to let them fight it out on the disk.
edit: how did I typo a typo, keeping it
It's been like 2.5 years for me. There's been a few annoyances and games that didn't work, but I've never actually gone back
I should probably just reclaim the drive at this point
