Can Anthony make a “Linux for dummies” series, I’d be perfectly fine with learning with him being the teacher
YES
I think this would be a great idea. 10/10 would watch
Best. Idea. Ever!
Seconded. Motion carries. Lets get this to be a thing!
@@alien_anomaly8837 ✋
You guys should do a yearly update on "The State of Linux Gaming"
Yes, that's a great idea
The president of water cooling gives the "State of the Linux Gaming" address. Love this idea.
@@manuelhernandez2017 Not a great idea but an exceptional idea. A no brainer idea!
Well the repetition of the phrase "linux graphical perfomance sucks" won't be entertaining.
Linux gaming is not a good idea in general, even natively optimized. X server is a big bloaty mess that nobody knows how to neatly re-think and save the compatability, since the whole concept is kinda fucked(that's the reason why it doesn't really matter what x server u are using xorg or any other) , and that's the reason why wayland exist. It is also a reason why Mac OS gaming is not a good idea as well, since their Quartz as far as i am concerned saves pretty much the same infrastructure and just expands on it(but i am not a mac os dev so don't quote me on that)
Linux gaming is going too fast, it would be better like every couple months
Anthony as Morpheus is the greatest thing ever.
i NEED full EPISODE of ANTHONY MORPHEUS
BILLY G
ANTHONHEUS or ANTHEUS this is the question.
3000% agreed , also really good way for others to keep playing when windows 11 comes and ruins support for completely good processors that have aged well. like i7-7700k

"its a rabbit hole that you may never want to climb back out of" i should have listened him
You just never wanna come back to windows
That was 15 years ago for me. Worth subscribing for.
@Tab Run it on a vm there is no shame on that boiii
@Tab Muta plays with Arch and a vm with win 10, You have to add some code to the launcher and i win 10 u have to activate HyperV

Anthony and James should do a 'Discovering Linux' series, or something like this. LTT needs more specials and series features that span more than one episode.
Agree! For us who are migrating into Linux 😆
I just really hope they got networking tooks available ☺️
@@lvill3633 there are plenty of other communities dedicated to Linux users. Reply if interested.
Agreed. Anthony is a lot more encouraging regarding Linux than the horror stories of the Windowists.
I'm from the future looking for such a playlist.
It's coming. The time when people can ignore desktop Linux is coming to a fast end.
I could listen to Anthony talk about tech for 10 hours straight and never get bored

@@xylo5750 Not wanting to be offensive or judgemental at all, for me "the huge guy" is something positive and a great characteristic to embrace, I am somewhat huge too and I love it.

@@JaimeAndresJaramillo You are probably the most positive person I've seen on a comment section so far
What we need - More Anthony, More Linux tutorials. One of the best LTT videos!
Definitely - it would be nice to get some vids on building programmer workstations and benchmarking them against compile time or how well they run typical dev setups like web servers etc. - Not everyone cares about video encoding, just youtubers and wannabe tubers.
@@brentgreeff1115 and lots of video production nerds
there are so many tutorials on youtube
i think promoting would be better. play a PROTON game , that works OOTB on the WAN show every week
or make a video once a week/month and just show a couple new/top selling games, that work OOTB on linux
show ppl how easy it is to play on linux, not giving them a lot of stuff to do with wine and lutris
the protondb show
This is the year! This is the year Linux gaming takes off! -every Linux fan ever since 1998
I've been using Linux professionally for a very long while -- servers and stuff, and if you think that would make me less reluctant to want to try Linux, you'd be very wrong, I have a catastrophic series of experiences with Linux desktops... But holy excrement, Steam really makes running games ridiculously easy. Install OS, Install Steam snap from store, install game (s). You don't even have to go download Steam by yourself - package manager does it for you...
sad but true
Well... I did played Unreal Tournament 2004 on Linux, and was great.
on one side you're right on the other it does feel different this time linux has actually gotten to the point or has nearly gotten to the point of being good enough to truly start competing
@@watcheths Really? I've had far more catastrophic experiences with windows. My response to something broken on linux is usually "I'm sure I can find an easy solution somewhere". On windows it usually ends up with "Fuck it time for a new install."
Anthony: "The list of titles is growing by the day"
2 years later: Running RE: Village on Linux through Proton
😈 I just came back to this video, I was feeling nostalgic
2 weeks later: steam deck announced, based on steam os and with even more anticipated proton support to the benefit of linux users 😈
its a good week to be a linux gamer, fellas
@@arijeanz It is 👍
i cringed when he said that google stadia thing man..... 😬😬
@@turbografx.16 He just pointed out how this service is relying on Linux. Why is this make you cringe?
I would love to see Anthony have his own channel, talking about linux, open source, and anything else that suits him. Please!
Anthony is such a good presenter in front of the camera. He needs more screen time for sure! Great job
IMO he's not a great too great in funny videos, but he's a fucking master at these highly informative videos.
@Roasted Content The guy with the Linus Tech Tips shirt. The grey shirt guy is James
I found him more like someone trying to read the script to us, instead of trying to hide him reading a script..
I agree. He's an extremely smart man.
my boi anthony really knows his stuff...he should have his own linux section... come on linus make it happen! I bet he wouldn't be bad at all or drop hardware lol
As I've said before, he's the Canadian Wendell
shut up, dropping hardware is the signature of LTT.
Max Mustermann but only when linus is around I’m afraid
I love Linux, I use Linux as my daily driver, but I don't think this needs to happen. Linux should be the subject of a video once every 2-3 months AT MOST. I'd be much happier if Linux was added when benchmarking drives/CPUs/GPUs. (Linux has incredibly good filesystem performance, which will stand out when comparing drives.) They don't need to even say it, just sneak Linux numbers onto the graphs.
Actually, the next Linux vid should probably be this. Comparing performance across Steam's top 10:
- Windows vs Linux+Proton vs native Linux (where applicable)
- 10-series NVidia, proprietary vs Noveau
- AMD 5XX and Vega, Mesa vs AMDGPU-PRO (although Mesa should always be the winner unless you need CAD/OpenCL)
Exactly, this guy needs his own channel.
I think Anthony should definitely make a "Linux Tech Tips" channel
Anthony Tech Tips
Watching this video for the first time after the Steam Deck got announced, and it runs Linux instead of Windows. Somehow this video slipped under my radar even though I've been subscribed for ages.
Oh my gosh that sponsor segway 😂😂😂 *flips glasses off* and just the whole intro was great😂 good job guys
I was watching for a red tux pill or something. Lol
I was literally like, "Ah, no Linus. No goofy segways."
NOPE.
Thank you Anthony for that awesome sponsor segue. We paid good money for it 😂😂
I'm so glad Anthony is feeling more comfortable in videos!
IKR! I love this dude so much! I swear he has the makings of a great narrator for just about anything. Hell he can make a phone book interesting :D
He reading all that stuff.
@@WillieMatthews So is everyone on CZcams
More linux content please!!! I badly want to convert from windows and feel like having Anthony as a resource would really help
Just DO IT. This rabbit hole is bottomless.
@@abdulwahabjag no it's not. You have no idea how many errors I've run into and how much I've had to troubleshoot. It looks easy in the video but for some reason, things just don't work for me.
Step 1, install gentoo, step 2, remove gentoo and install Manjaro. Manjaro now appears to be the most user friendly OS ever created.
@@kg4wwn don't even need to install gentoo just try and even arch will look easy
The effort Anthony puts to not burst into laughs, in the beginning, is hilarious!
Anthony is my favorite personality now. He is awesome. Alex is awesome too. I think the staff is really rounded out great.
Who is Nate?
Andrew Delashaw lol I flubbed. Edited.
The big guy is over qualified for this job
Easily.
And he's so easy to listen to. Very cool guy for sure.
Someone should hire him, give him a gym membership and a million euro a year Linux spokesperson job, very nice on linking together known items to "unknown" linux items. 11/10
@Meso Phyl This went from a nice compliment to fat shaming way too fast, Chill out.
Whenever I see him in a video, he reminds me of it specialists I work with.
Manjaro is awesome, really started to like this as an easy to use and more stable Arch Linux variant, and it feels extremely polished too.
People should not be afraid of Linux, especially if they're moderately technically versed under Windows, because it's actually not too dissimilar in Linux - especially with similar desktop environments (loving KDE nowadays. Really came a long way since the rewrite a few years back!). The terminal is a great and mighty tool, but you don't really have to know it. There's a plethora of graphical tools nowadays that work just as easy like under Windows, or even easier in a lot of cases (packet managers are awesome!). And if you have to use it, there are usually plenty of guides out there that lead you through each and every step, no biggy. If there are common steps you can or want to take with the terminal, then you simply learn it over time, until it becomes second nature.
Game compatibility has been steadily increased, and I think a lot of people would be very surprised how many of their games would run under Linux. Most of them even out of the box, or just with minor tweaking. The only downside here are new Windows exclusive titles, because if they aren't immediately running through something like Wine or Proton, then you might have to wait a bit for people to figure out how to run them, and then the first running experiences might not be as polished at first either.
Still… The more people swap over, the bigger this market grows, the bigger the support gets, the easier and streamlined the experience will be - and all that without the Windows bullshit on a free and open operating system.
Oh, and better RGB and VR compatibility is also just a matter of time.
Manjaro sucks. Don't use it. Use ubuntu.
@@AaronTechnic No. LTS distros suck, Apt sucks, and Gnome sucks too. Ubuntu is exactly what I am NOT looking for, especially on a gaming desktop.
@@Dark__Thoughts ubuntu has fairly new software, ubuntu flavours exist, apt is good enough.
@@AaronTechnic The kernel alone is already two years old… And no, apt is fucking garbage and I am glad I'm away from the PPA hell of those distros.
@@Dark__Thoughts apt isnt garbage, it's easy to use and, the kernel one the latest ubuntu is 5.13, but you can use mainline kernel ppas.
Anthony is the "I USE ARCH" meme in this intro.
Also, my favourite LTT lore character.
A video by a mainstream tech channel about Linux that I as a medium-bearded Linux user (Level: Arch) can almost completely agree with? Nice one!
"btw i use arch" we all saw it :D
Oh yeah btw I use arch too
I almost switched to Arch when I thought my Mint Machine was getting hacked, then realized it was just a broken keyboard.
It would be amazing if they started supporting linux users with content. There's some good CZcams channels with Linux content out there but LTT is in a league of its own.
TL;DR I use Arch BTW.
BTW, I too, also use Arch.
Guys please make linux section guides // stuff / customisation etc with Anthony.We actually love him and the linux topic.Please do it
amen to that
honestly arch and Manjaro are super great in my opinion, I started messing around with Linux a couple years ago, and as much as it was a steep learning curve I don't regret it at all.
@@ZexMaxwell when he speak it's all beautyful, but the truth it's that nothing it's gonna change i think. Linux gaming it's something comin' out sometime from 10 years, but nothing ended up being realitstic. Other than that, youy can do a lot of things with linux, not gaming tough, direct x it's not available on linux, you can just emulat direct x on linux, since it's exclusive to windows. But if you need to emulate, you need a process that windows doesn't require, so performances are not going to be the same, in the best results.
Windows 10 is fine, apart from some recurring meme, but nothing bad at all, and imho it's the finest windows version we have ever had.
Or maybe even do a more formal collab with Level1Linux. Wendell has a ton of content on this topic, and more.
Yes!
It will be amazing to see how Linux gaming changes after the release of the SteamDeck
Yay for Anthony. I'm glad someone is actually talking about Linux.
Intro was awesome and good someone give Anthony more screen time
Anthony is just so freaking awesome ,that glasses throw really cracked me up
I had to watch that clip two more times, I lost it.
You'll gotta make more of these, I'm dying to hear more about Linux and gaming and I just live how Anthony does it!
This is my favorite video of the channel, I come back to watch it every once in a while
Anthony is probably the nicest and most knowledgeable employee that Linus has
edit: geeeeezzz I’ve never got this many likes so thank you so very much
Literally, if someone get something complicated they immediately scream for Anthony, he is a main carry))
He is the only dude there that knows what he's doing...
I agree, I love Anthony. And he's promoted Manjaro more than once now, so he gets a +1 from me :D
And biggest! Eyooo
you just got one more
Should have a dedicated series or sub channel surrounding Linux, starred by Anthony. Would do great, and gives Linux some shine
Joe Thomas Great Idea! 🐧

I break out in hives if I get close to an Ubuntu box.
but isn't gentoo the cool boy distro?
Please make an updated version! I loved it
I think these videos without Linus are working, he is the face of the channel, but I think a push towards these kind of videos with more of the staff is great. Keep up the good work.
The fatass dude is probably gonna die before he gets to be in another video
Having the staff host the channel as well feels kind of nice actually. Nothing against Linus, but it's nice overall. ^^
Upvoted so this can be brought more attention to.
@@CloroxBleach-hi6jd You're a real asshole
@Garbage dude, what is wrong with you? There is no need for that.
It's weird. Because before Luke left there were a lot more videos without Linus. And when Luke left it was 100% Linus and now it's started to change back to others again.
i second the idea for regular linux tutorials on LTT. that would be interesting to watch
>Next thing you know, LTT is now a Linux channel like Level1Techs or even InfinitelyGalatic
That would be ironic for a channel of Windows gamers who don't know how to handle a server right. :P
@@roundduckkira It would [be ironic], but friggin' rad!
I third that idea! But only if Anthony hosts. I'm thinking about trying out some Proton now!
4 do it now please. Love this stuff. Just finished my degree so I have time to play with Linux now.
shame this video is kinda miss leading and could have been set out way better for new users to Linux, I have personally used Linux for well over 10 years now
This is a great video, I appreciate the friendly banter and general great attitude. I had not heard of lutris, that's a game changer guys, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Best opening on Linus ever. Found this because I didn't know Linus even covered Linux stuff. Good times, let's hit that rabbit hole!
these videos prove that Linus media group is making great progress.
I'm inclined to say you don't need Linus on the screen 5 times a week anymore
BLASPHEMY!!!
But also true, they have some great, talented people and should be utilizing them
Anthony will become a legend on this channel. Period.
He already is.. he only has few videos but all are really bulletproof.. it helps that he knows how to program because he first declares the concept and tben initializes it.. no variable is used before it is initialized.. realy programatic way of thinking, but also realy straightforward one... 💾
He's a damn genius.
Wendell and Anthony linux bros.
#AnthonyTechTips
A big one for sure!
You guys team up to make really good videos! I really like how mellow and realistic you guys are, keep it up!
Anthony thank you for sharing this after your video i switched from windows to Linux and I love it.
Have Anthony actually teach James to use linux in this format, that would be amazing
it was a bit light on details, and the flow was choppy. +1 for follow-ups
Yes, a good run through Linux for making everyday Linux usage easy, not just gaming!
This video is way better than the last Linux video and gives non-linux gamers an easy overview. Great vid!!
It is probably because firstly they managed to do their own research, not falling into the regular trap of believing most recomendations that you should use Ubuntu if you are new to Linux and that the systems for gaming on Linux have matured immensley by all accounts over the last year. There is still a ways to go but it surely looks better now than in any point in the past.
Linux still sucks.
Conversely, youngster Linus is almost completely clueless. :)
@@basshead. czcams.com/video/TVHcdgrqbHE/video.html
+zakura ayame Did your mom not teach you lying is bad?
Thereʼs just something about the way that Anthony explains things. He is relaxing to listen to, engaging, and not boring at all.
Linus, please make a series playlist of Linux instructions/tutorials with Anthony teaching about it. I would be so hooked!
I don't know why does it feel relaxing listening to the big guy!
I think this is the best intro you guys have ever done.
10/10 would watch full movie after that trailer.
OMG yes I was lmfao the whole time xD
Man did I really laugh. Good intro, would watch it on Blu Ray
Same here! Thanks guys, will be playing this over and over!!!
Worst acting that I've ever seen in my life. I love it. Keep making this. There is such a lack of chemistry between these guys I can't get enough.
Also, I'm a Linux user. Love the content.
I feel like that can be chalked up to having the single camera and relying on the script, if they let themselves be more extemporaneous it would have felt much more natural
@Conor More likely than not, James is clueless. Aside from that, this was meant with the Linux NOOB in mind. He was the stand in, meant to be asking questions to further the progression of the video.
Im using Arch btw *im serious*
Linus must be on vacation... and very likely needed it after ten years.
I think this is probably one of Anthony's first times in a starring role for an LTT video. Honestly he seems about as nervous as any of the other now-regulars were during their first few videos.
Excited to see him get more comfortable if he decides to do more videos like this, always nice to have the deep down hardcore geeks represented once in a while!
One of the best Linux introduction videos I have seen.. Good stuff.
This is incredible! I’ve been trying to understand this stuff for years and I never knew half of this!
Give Anthony more screen time, PLEASE and thank you
Should be a channel for him only lol
Give him more time in the gym first please
I love that you guys are pushing Linux gaming. Not only is it making Linux more and more viable for gaming, it also makes Linux simply more viable as wine gets better. I believe wine is the most important Linux project right now; it's the one that could turn Linux into a great alternative for Windows for the general public.
Yes!
"Turn Linux into a great alternative"
It's a good alternative already though, even if it's not ready for everyone to switch to it. It's already a good OS for productivity/school and half the games on Steam have a good compatibility rating.
@@albynoson While it may be technically capable already, I don't think it's consumer capable for most people and that is it's biggest hurdle.
@@albynoson And it's so disappointing that half of the tasks I do and half of the game I play dont run on Linux =( I was even seriously looking into using VM with GPU passthrough and probably Looking Glass to compensate for that, but then stumbled upon a few objective tests showing that while FPS is on par with Windows and you only lose like 2-5%, there are much more stuttering with that approach. Eh, well, will hope for the best and use Linux on laptop, tablet and servers for now.
I dont think everyone will switch to linux
Anthony is a wonderful teacher! He is great at breaking things down into simpler terms, making Linux not seem so daunting. Thanks guys! 🙂
The consistant quality of production and informative content coming from this channel made me turn notifications on. 👏 👏 👏
maybe we should keep this kind of linux gaming series coming
I'm pretty certain Anthony is actually Gabe Newell in disguise.
The more I think about it, the clearer I see it...
Now that you mention it I can totally see it.

But can he count to 3?
More light videos. But the standard videos are a must too. Good work. Keep it up guys.

It's Gaben's cousin. Jaben.
What if Anthony is actually Gaben from an alternate dimension?
praise lord gaben
Now that you mentioned it.... I've never seen Anthony and Gaben together 🤔
I saw Peter Griffin.
I love how this is sort of a "Linux for dummies" type of video. Good job Anthony especially for explaining it for someone who may not fully understand Linux
Cough level1techs
Reminds me of the 90's tutorials for the internet and email on tv...
Developer & Linux Mint user for the past 5+ years here; tried Ubuntu Studio (for music prod) the past 2 months, but not convinced. Was just about to switch back to Mint, but you convinced me to give PopOS a go (heard of the name before, but nothing more). Not a gamer anymore, but it seems pretty cool for a workstation as well. Thanks Anthony!
I would love to see Anthony do more with Linux, and I think you guys should have a more regular Linux slot covering more Linux based content including Gaming and Productivity etc. Too much Windows not enough Linux. Please have a think about it?
Awesome intro to Linux and its gaming potential. Anthony knows his stuff and is explaining it well. Great to see him having more screen time👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Csgo and cities skylines works fine on linux.
Came here to say this. Well done Anthony.
scripted but yeah Anthonys def the linux guy @ ltt prolly helped James out a crap ton on this one
yas
Alternatively I can just use windows and it'll take no effort vs Linux's immense effort and the fact that 98% of games don't work in Linux, especially older games
I love Anthony's passion for Linux. He needs to be in more videos.
linus is actually a front for Anthony to work on more smart stuff. that's why hes more śmartt

Lmao , he just know how to install Ubuntu , lol , he recommends Manjaro which brokes every now and then , not mentioning Linux mint or fedora
@@isouravgope Well, it's arch so it tends to break sooner or later. The fun part is fixing it!
@Cal Mac OS is actually based off of BSD which is Linux! So technically a lot of the stuff that you can do on Linux you can do on Mac, especially once you install a package manager.
1:05 "I can say with confidence that it's the future of gaming"
Man that aged well.
I’m so ready for when I can switch from windows to Linux, it was the first OS I ever used and has always been favorite
Linux is getting more love on this channel and I love it! Free and open/community driven software is the future

Sometimes life is fair.
This reminds me of the internet commercial from the 90s, nice work. ^^
This is the best video intro ever. Cracking job lads.
"Ubuntu is due for an update, like, now." Ubuntu literally released the newest update the same day.
Proof that Ubuntu developers are watching LTT
Ubuntu releases scheduled updates in April and October.
Coincidence? I think not.
TBF, Ubuntu doesn't run up-to-date kernels (feature-wise) unless it's features get back-ported for some critical security or mass regression issue. one minor example would be how WireGuard will be in-kernel as of 5.6. Having a built-in secure tunnel will be a big deal for network gaming, but it won't likely get back-ported to the LTS, in this case because there's a LKM (loadable kernel module) in wide-use that's just fine in the mean-time.
of course, the point of "updates" is that there is no release, like windows 10 it is more a software as a service, you have no privacy. Avoid Ubuntu.
-actual IT/secu consultant. I'd prefer to see Debian or Gentoo running on the machines but Mint gets the job done.

Great vid guys! Anthony is the perfect contrast to Linus. Calm, great articulation and solid knowledge!
LMAO love the back handed insult!
Someone didn't get the memo that the roast ended 4 days ago
ha
Except that, even while just watching, I must resist the gravitational urge to orbit him
So calm!
I love that an informational video about Linux is on the trending page.
As a South African, hearing the word Ubuntu in an American accent was a trip! 😄💛
Hands down anthany is my favorite techie in youtube space...also brother, that Morpheus impersonation was spot on :D
Keep the Linux gaming stuff coming! This stuff is awesome
u evil man!but i do like ur said!
Totally agree. The best way market alternative choices and keep channel fresh.
guoqiang wang join the dark side
Anthony is like the Computer world of David Attenborough.
He explains everything so well and easily, yet is so soothing.
Anthony was right about never wanting to climb back out of the rabbit hole. i dont wanna go back
I used Linux in the late 90's and ever since my Win10 laptop TURNED ITTSELF ON TO INSTALL THE EDGE BROWSER, WITH AUTOUPDATE TUURNED OFF and when I built my last pc w/ a ROG strix450-f board and it made me 'upgrade' to win 10 from win 7 by disabling usb. I probably could have hacked it, but I didn't want to spend 5 more hrs. doing it. I am test driving win 11 now, and I don't like where it's taking me even more than win 10.
I had considered going back to Linux for a while but was not looking forward to the learning curve, and the fact that this video is from 2019 makes it sound even better. Thanks nerds!
Anthony's Morpheus parody was excellent. Worth the watch. Liked it within the first minute.
11/10 amazing intro
Same here.
Anthony is a likable guy.
I was also just thinking of trying Linux myself for this video was perfect.
@@producersRus Anthony nailed it.
Anthony and James are GREAT together. Moar videos with them together please.
Yep. I just wish they'd speak to one another a bit much instead of looking so much at the camera, especially when they're specifically addressing each other. Besides that, yeah, bring in more contributors, that's a welcome change. :)
Since the making of this video, Garuda Linux has come out to specifically address gaming on Linux, complete with a well-designed UX that side-steps, almost entirely, the use of the terminal and gives gamers easy access to gaming-specific tools.
Similar to Manjaro, it's based on Arch Linux - which has some of the best documentation to be found for any distro.
It also looks really snazzy.
I'm personally in the middle of moving from Windows to Linux and, as a gamer, I've narrowed down my choices to: Manjaro, Linux Mint, Garuda Linux, and Peppermint OS. For anything that refuses to run on Linux, I'll VM my old Win7 via QEMU.
Thank you sm, this is such a useful and informative video! ❤️
I really really liked that intro! It was like the ultimate Matrix reference. I liked the green lighting, the mysterious voice, the sunglasses, and of course, the segway.
purely epic! love the flicked off glasses and deadpan segway the most though XD
One of my favorite intros of all time
I'm actually very curious of linux if Anthony could make a series on linux for noobs itd be great
check out the Linux channel of Level1Techs on CZcams ;)
And really just try it :) And start googling, there's really not THAT much to it. Find info about it's folder structure, which folder goes for what, learn to mount drives and how it is different from windows, learn how to use basic terminal commands like installing software... Should not take that much time. What got me into linux initially was actually running Home Assistant on Raspberry Pi, you can try that as well, if you're into home automation.
just download ubuntu make a boot flashdrive and choose the dual boot install you can choose at start up which OS you want to use all you files in C: drive will be available in Ubuntu also that way you can try it without uninstalling windows ;)
@@nixellion What got me into Linux was MacOS... hear me out. LinuxPPC 2000 was SOOOO much better than MacOS8/9. I always go back and install it for a while until I realize I need Windows for something. I've probably had almost year long bouts where I don't run Windows at all.
@@JosephHalder Well, MacOS is based on BSD, which is also a Unix system. So Mac and Linux distros are much closer together compared to windows.
POP OS, with DDE and started gaming. Polychromatic for Razer RGB. Thanks Guys!!!!
