I will jump into that rabbit hole, thanks!

Yeah I don’t as in the bazzite installer it’s a real pain to set it up manually (also not allowing you to spread the partitions over multiple drives during the initial setup)

Ah well, not the first time I changed distro xD I’ll make some space on my drive and test it

A very dumb question probably, but I’m new to using Linux so I lack a lot of understanding: I’m on Bazzite atm. Would there be a simple way to switch to blend OS without wiping everything? Like a rebase? Probably not but I figured it’s worth a shot to ask xD

Would that be a way - have lots of your self created stuff on any device and then sue the corpos or sth for gaining illegal access to copyrighted materials in case they search it?

“if you’re tired of Google try using Waze, a subsidiary of Google”… Yeah nice alternative

I have at least successfully started it and played two matches unranked. I run it through Lutris (Start Ubisoft connect from Lutris) and the start xdefiant through Ubisoft connect.

I followed some Indian guys tutorial on YouTube. It crashed two times and trying to start it a third time, Lutris gave an error sth was missing (don’t remember what exactly) and offered to install it. After that it worked but probably more coincidence than knowing what I did. The tutorial added two game execution properties and installed some windows dll through winetricks.

Try fmstrat/winapps it’s installation process is well documented and it works relatively well. In case you don’t need too much functionality (e.g. complex formatting/custom template/a ton of custom add-ons) the online version might work for you. There’s also a web app for teams you can find on flathub iirc. Betterbird also gives you a ton of options and with owl addin it handles exchange pretty well and also gives you access to the teams web app directly inside betterbird

Reaper also lets you keep evaluating it if you’re unsure that you want to buy it.

“We need construction companies to build homes in a way that allows access to every room at any time for law enforcement” Sounds a bit strange doesn’t it?

Awesome thank you for taking the time too be so detailed! Ok I think I’m starting to see what I need to do.

I’ll definitely look it up. Thanks for the help!

That’s the tool yes. I’ve followed a guide that should have also included optimization. One of the problems I encountered: it doesn’t recognize the monitors properly which makes it a pain e.g. opening an email in a new window. Also lots of flickering and "wrong"colors (Outlook icon is turquoise for example). Nonetheless I would need a “full” Windows environment for the training sessions anyways (don’t want to confuse the attendees more than necessary by showing them an unfamiliar OS)

Thanks for the extensive answer and the video. I’ll put it to good use since I wanted to do a clean reinstall anyways.

Thanks that sounds promising

Any links to beginner friendly tutorials and guides will also be highly appreciated!

Will it run on a 8t? Which instructions did you follow? I’ve one lying around and i’d love to test mobile Linux

I’d say: do recommend those windows like distro. Most people don’t really care about their OS. In their eyes the best OS US one they don’t have to think about/spend energy on. Hence the appeal of OS X for example. I think probably 80% of all users haven’t even fully understood what Windows is nor do they care in the slightest. They want to be able to browse the web, maybe game some, and maybe watch streams. They’d gladly attach their phone to a screen if it was easier than working on a different device. Whoever is really interested in learning things about their OS or distro of choice will do so in their own time and switch to something different if the need arises and not to become part of some cult like defenders of their holy distro (which it often feels like as soon as someone asks for recommendations). I have only recently switched to Linux Mint and am totally happy with it. I don’t feel like I absolutely have to try Arch for example. I got everything I need for now up and running and I have neither the time nor the need to learn anything else at the moment. Elitist posts like OPs are probably more effective in keeping people from trying Linux (that and the mass of names flying around for different parts, as well as the lack of beginner friendly documentation - although that has changed a lot since the last time I tested Linux a few years back)

And if I remember correctly that only was the name of one company’s model of mobile phones but it stuck like e.g. Tempo for tissues in general.

Also the steam deck helped massively with game compatibility. The only game I had to tinker with (and didn’t get to work) so far is a closed alpha. I still run a dual boot setup, but only use the Windows partition for work (office suite needed). Fmstrat/Winapps (found on GitHub) is a good enough way to use Office for smaller tasks so I don’t always have to boot up the Windows partition.
