    Built my wife her first gaming PC. Installed Ubuntu. I’m shocked at how easily everything runs.

      I’ve been running mint full time for a couple months now and it’s been amazing how little i have actually had to do to get the games running.

      say what you want about Ubuntu (and god knows people will) but it just works, and that is the main thing people switching want.

        Yeah, since it’s exclusively for gaming, I tried Drauger which is allegedly some gamer-based distro. Took an hour to get WiFi working then it hard locked at the login screen after running updates.

        Reminded me of my first time trying Linux in 2004.

        I’ve been running Ubuntu for a year on my laptop. Might feel brave enough to branch out into something else soon.
