>>11531Ok but do they play better on Linux than windows or worse?
There is literally no case usage for Windows anymore other than gaming
But I'm worried on Linux I can't install things as easily as on Windows. 99 percent of my times on a PC is using a web browser. What do you use on Linux? Like even on Windows there's no chromium exe that installs by itself

>>11532>Ok but do they play better on Linux than windowsVery very rarely. There is few exceptions.
Nier Automata is one, game plays flawlessly on Linux with apparently less problems than Windows.
>But I'm worried on Linux I can't install things as easily as on Windows. 99 percent of my times on a PC is using a web browser. What do you use on Linux? Like even on Windows there's no chromium exe that installs by itselfThe only reason I use Arch is because someone has already made a PKGBUILD for everything in the AUR, which is a small script that will compile a package that integrates with the package manager just like official packages.
Arch is the only distro that does this, I don't like Arch otherwise but this one thing is that powerful.
Other distros you need to compile packages manually yourself (messy) not difficult, or install from third-party repos (gross).

And does most games run better on Windows?

>>11535not the guy you're replying to, but i found this site to be resourceful:
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/wiki/Babbies_First_Linuxin general, i'd recommend fetching a spare laptop,
then try to install 2 or 3 distros, get wine running and see how/if it works
for instance i found out that devuan isn't for me
linux mint or xubuntu seemed easy enough though
manjaro was recommended to me as a first step, to get into arch later on

>>11535In many ways Arch is easier than Ubuntu yes.
>And does most games run better on Windows?Idk read my fucking post maybe.
No.11541
>>11540You just said that Linux isn't better they could be the same. So if windows is better it doesn't seem worth it

>>11541Windows is better at running software designed and compiled for Windows, it's true.
That's the only thing Windows is better than Linux at.
No.11548
>>11543Everything is designed for Windows
No.11549
>>11548Really because most of the software I use is designed by developers on Linux for Linux.
If I used Windows I would feel like there's no software.

>>11563Chrome comes from Chromium, which is the fully open source base that Chrome is developed and stems from.
I'm sure it still "phones home" to Google, but it's completely open source they could know what that is but they haven't even bothered.

I haven't even used Windows for many years. Make the switch and determine for yourself whether you can stick with Linux.
