Discord users won't move to Matrix. It would be Revolt or maybe Teamspeak, but even that might be too technical.

You don't agree to a truce that you weren't involved in arranging.

It's just bait anyway. If they don't break it themselves (very likely to, given their history), they truce and then if Ukraine attacks, they go "look Ukraine attacked us when we wanted a truce!". If Ukraine does nothing, Russia get the breather to move troops, resupply etc.

What else has such a catalog? Going to be hard to persuade creators to host their own content with ads and subscriptions.

Never said it was the fault of the creators, I love the idea of Linux and wish it was the mainstream desktop OS, then none of these issues would really exist. I only have issue with people pretending it's so simple to change to it from Windows, which is just almost never true.

I have an Nvidia card because it was the best option for me at the time I bought it, Valve's Proton hadn't matured enough for Linux to even be considered for gaming at that time (other Linux quirks aside). As much as I support FOSS, I love playing a variety of games with friends and that just wasn't going to be feasible with Linux 5-6 years ago. I wasn't going to dual-boot when I would end up spending most of my time in Windows anyway and the rest of my time troubleshooting Linux.

Now AMD has released a good card, Proton is really good and Linux has progressed further to where I can seriously consider it. With Windows 10 support ending, I am very likely to jump ship.

I have Nvidia yeah and quickly learnt that I wasn't going to get it working smoothly and went back to Windows. If I manage to get a RRP 9070XT, then I will try Linux again.

I hate the "stop using windows" comments, when it's quite impossible to have the same experience without specific hardware and setups.

Can I run multi-monitor high refresh rates without the desktop slugging? Last time I seriously tried switching to Linux, this seemingly simple setup in 2024 was too much for it to handle.
