As worse and worse win11 features are unveiled it’s so funny to see these posts slowly filled with more “yeah i just switched to linux” comments.

    Switched to mint on my laptop a couple months ago and love it, using it full time on that system. Still need to run windows on my desktop for some audio production and VR gaming, but honestly that system is going to Mint next for the other 90% of the usage. Couldn't believe how refined the Linux desktop experience has gotten, but then again last time I gave it a try was probably well over a decade ago :)

    what specs do you have? im wondering since im planning to install it on my school laptop (lenovo thinkpad 11e 4th gen, 4gb ram, 128gb ssd, intel celeron, integrated graphics.) and in wondering if it would work somewhat fast, especially at web browsing.

    The web is just heavy, no OS changes that. It will work fine but that ram could be filled by a few heavy sites.

    yeah I just realised that fact, currently I use chromium and it is quite fast on my system so I don't think there will be issues there. aside from that, how fast are windows programs compared to ordinary windows?

    blocking the stuff you dont want (ads and tracking ) with dns blocklists and adblocker can help a bit. linux has also the option to compress the contents of the ram with Zram. i have not used it myself yet.

    Thats a very broad question. My general thought is don’t install Linux to use Windows software. It’s gotten pretty good, to nearly same performance, but I wouldn’t count on it.

    My apologies on the late reply, I currently have Bazzite on three devices, My main PC: Ryzen 7 3700X, RX 5600, 64Gb DDR4. My main laptop, a Lenovo E590. And my backup laptop: A Lenovo L412. So far, I prefer it over windows on all three.

    And removing one of the best features, the subsystem for android. It stops making sense from many people's perspectives and using a linux program like waydroid would probably be better than using android studio on Windows11.
