At least penguin won't stole your data.

    Just wait till you click and drag everything out of the One Drive folder onto your desktop, only to realize that the fucking desktop is also One Drive

    I work IT in an Apple-heavy environment, and this was the worst to find out. I can't recall if it's just OneDrive doing it or iCloud, but either way, makes it a bitch to backup resigned/terminated users' folders when I'm offline or whatever.

    It is time for penguin.

    If you are hesitant, try it on an old machine first. (If you have one)

    Any criteria? If newbie, there is nothing wrong with Linux Mint. If experienced, still there is nothing wrong with Linux Mint.

    Edit: Oh dang, you were offering help. Thanks, I'm good. Could be useful for anyone who seeks help though.

    For gaming or regular use? I've tried both Bazzite and CachyOS on my gaming laptop. Even if I wasn't a tinkerer I would choose CachyOS any day for gaming. Mint over Ubuntu for regular use. My 2 cents

    You can game just fine on any distribution.

    You certainly can and I have several distros, but Cachy seems to be well suited with gaming. I am very sure I could tweak Mint to be comparable, but out of the box Cachy is a better gamer. One or two clicks and it’s all set.

    Agree. Some are just better suited. I mean I use CachyOS for both gaming and regular use. I was thinking more "is this a workstation or gaming rig" sort of divide. CachyOS have kernel optimizations for gaming, but smarter men than me need to say if that actually has any major impact. And its bleeding edge so you're always 100% up to date, that can be both good and bad of course. For me it's good. The two-click setup to have everything installed and done for gaming doesn't hurt.

    Arch, obviously. What else would you choose?

    I'm kinda at the other side of the needle, I prefer Void myself.

    Worse is when they ask me for a file in a onedrive folder I don't have access to

    Recently realized when I drag to one drive, it moves the file, but when dragging out it copies. Perfect blend of data loss and anti-customer practices.

    MS just pushed their stupid OneDrive Photos as an update. I decided that's my last straw. It was one thing when I could toggle AI off, but this trying to connect all my pics to contacts etc is too far. I'm done. I just wish Tuta Drive was ready for daylight. Probably going to ride Mega until it is.

    Indon't understand why the mobile app is so terrible. It crashes all the time. The image thumbnails never load. Its like, this is your purpose for existing. Why are you so bad at it?

    More like me looking for my entire Desktop

    And then you cant access your files because onedrive decided to update.

    If you only have the file in the cloud, it's your fault too.
