I’ve been extremely happy with Linuxmint the past 2-3 yrs. However I have a higher end AMD card. 97% of games play great under Proton with steam. I use Rustdesk to remote into other Linux machines as well as windows OS servers/desktops even with multiple screens and it works without issue. Just my $0.02 and I know it’s heavily Ubuntu based but the stability and usability as a daily driver, also working as an IT professional has been great.

Last piece, it’s been a rare occurrence but if I’m messing around using bleeding edge graphics drivers or “playing with fire” messing with deeper system configs, drivers, etc and shit the bed I have had 100% success using TIMESHIFT to completely restore my OS back to its previous state with zero data/config loss or issues. You just need to have the discipline to remember to take a backup before you know you’re going to be potentially blowing something out. But, that said, it fully restores everything. I have a 18TB external USB I just use for that and it doesn’t even take long either, restoring a 2 & 4TB SSD system that’s pretty loaded up with data.

Not even going down that track, I’ve been messing with Linux for 15yr and happy to say about 2yr ago switched to Linux mint daily driver and not going back. Can do everything I need to:

Work (teams, prospect mail for Outlook, zoom, etc)

Gaming (Steam and Proton make playing 95% games a reality and actually works great surprisingly)

Music Production (Bitwig - truly awesome DAW very comparable to Ableton live - no BS actually is a TRUE contender and great and stable DAW, by far the best ever used in Linux)

Windows 11 can suck it

Literally everything was easy about it 5-10 years ago. Even 20yrs ago starting with Napster. Shit was the wild west you could pretty much do whatever you want. Apart from the various rogue virus laden crap. Torrent trackers got good about reporting bad ones though.

Not sure how it’s easier I can’t get near a torrent site without getting dumb letters from ISP. "get a VPN… "

OK. Well that’s not easier than ever, is it lol.

Not to be confused with Tim Janus, world championship burping title holder. I believe he also holds record for longest recorded burp at 18sec.
