@EJSC You are forgetting the endless data collecting of everything you do (even private folders). Sure you can opt out but some data is still collected. You can spend hours using user tweaks to disable all the garbage but apparently w10 can override your settings so you will always be required to monitor it. W10 updates also have been know to default all your privacy settings or flat out override tweaks/changes in registry. W10 sounds like a pain in the ass if you want personally freedom. The fact that China called bs (China the most data collecting place on the planet) and now have a W10 China version that is free of data collecting.....Is somewhat scary.

Glad to see some more Linux mentions popping up on LTT. An update to the Linux gaming does not suck video sounds nice. However I would also love to see a few videos on making the switch in general, and like I have mentioned before perhaps a Totally Linux Tuesday where one Tuesday a month there is an all Linux episode. Linux has great security, customization, and is easy to use. With things like Valve backing it through projects like Proton, quite a few games having native Linux ports, and the same (or very similar) software as on Windows everyone should at least give it a try. Even if you are strictly a gamer and you keep Windows on your main machine give it a shot on some secondary hardware you might have. Until Linus gets around to doing so there are some great KZbinrs who help people switch and talk about it in general. The Linux Gamer and Switched To Linux are two off the top of my head.

No, it's not a bad OS, it's just different than what Windows or MAC users are used to. There's a bit of a learning curve. The only place where there's a problem is with gaming, but even that is changing now, and quickly. As for it being a kernel or OS... Yeah, sure, technically the OS is considered GNU/Linux, but even pedants understand that when somebody says Linux on its own, they're generally referencing the entire OS. In almost all cases, when somebody speaks of the kernel they say so explicitly...

[@S0uLGamin]

MrDrakkus what’s the kernel?

[@MrDrakkus]

@@S0uLGamin The kernel is the core of any Operating System. It's the bit that tells the hardware what the software wants it to do. Kind of like a translator.

i swithced my gaming rig as soon as proton became avaiable in beta, and never looked back if you are looking to switch don't get confused with distros, just install ubuntu and i you want it to look one way or another - just install the window manager you like, instead of installing different distros, as all linux distributions are the same, and you have access to the same programs basically you get yourself ubuntu and make it look like you want: windows-llike -> sudo apt install cinnamon mac-os-like -> sudo apt install budgie-desktop windows7+widgets-llike -> sudo apt install tasksel sudo taskel install kubuntu-desktop i use default ubuntu desktop ( gnome )
