[my old post about 'will hdr work']
You guys motivated me enough to finally give it a go. I was sooooooo deep into windows, a third of the daily tools used were my own, i got every certificate possible from M$, i always defended them blahblahblah.
So I expected a hard and long transition to Linux on my main-rig. Installed it (CachyOS) on another HDD to leave win for dual-boot, even made a VM out of it in case I were too lazy to boot win....
And 3 months later, i have not booted it once and never needed the VM either.
99% of everything i needed works, my own tools were kinda already there or could be substituted. Every game works, HDR works, only one tool (MediaMonkey) gives me headaches but that's it. Why have i waited that long.
My point? None. Just thanks for good advice :)
Oh man, I know the feeling. It took me 5 months to remember that I had a Windows partition.
It was so important to me, to have a way back (which is fair enough), and then I just completely forgot about it.
