Boot every day and expect everything to just work
honestly ? I never had any issues with something breaking on boot , except for screen sharing not being supported on Wayland by some apps , but thats on login not on boot .
maybe its because I use a vaguely stable system (Ubuntu/Kubuntu) or because most of my linux experience was on laptops , but it all worked fine ...
I have more luck with Linux than windows on this one. My windows installs end up way more fucked from trying to bring in random shitty device drivers and shit whereas most Linux drivers are built into the kernel. Now sometimes you're just out of luck on Linux and there just isn't a driver but I haven't had that happen in like a decade for me.

Linux is great, windows is great. Why not both? They both do things great

Play Siege. So Linux wins again.

I just did the thing where I log into protonDB and found out the only non garbage game I have that isn't perfectly good on Linux is Siege. Had a while convo about it with my bestie and the result was "ah well fuck em."
