I moved to mint about a year ago since my hardware is too old to run 11. I’m glad I made the switch and wish I had done it sooner. I’m never going back 😁

Joining in on the love for material files. I’ve been using it a long time. The more I’ve got into FOSS apps I’ve come to realise that they are feature rich, lightweight and ad free. Its the difference between using something designed to be a good product vs something that is designed to squeeze as much out of you as possible
I have older hardware that would not be compatible with windows 11. I’ve recently started becoming a privacy nerd and thought this would be the perfect time to switch to Linux. I’ve been running Linux mint for a year and I will never go back, there is no reason to 😁 I wish I had done it sooner
Looks like you’re fully embracing spooktober! What other games are you planning to play?
I-it advertises cum?
Crazy I’d be interested to know why they did that 👀. I try to stick to second hand parts to keep the costs down but my only option is eBay really as there don’t seem to be many places that sell used PC parts round here
Yeah good point, would be pretty cramped in there. Saying that, sffs have basically no ventilation and they seem to manage 😅 if I had the money I would be attempting so many PC builds just for the fun of it.
Nice, there’s something so appealing about older cases. I wonder how difficult it’d be to fit modern hardware in one though. I want to build myself a decent budget PC one day, currently I’ve got an i7 4790k and gtx 980ti so very old! I don’t do much modern gaming though so im not in need of an urgent upgrade. I’ve also got a small form factor pc in my living room for emulation. It’s got a ryzen 5 pro 2400ge in it and I’m surprised how much it can actually run. Managed to get some switch games running on it🫨
Yeah my 3ds has broken unfortunately so no good way to experience those games😭 what’s your pc build like? Would love to see your battlestation
Yeah it’s a similar story with DS/3DS emulation. You can work with it but games feel better on original hardware. I think there are some dual screen emulation handhelds coming out now though
Yeah I’m more of an emulation guy too. I like upscaling and some of the QOL improvements that come with some ROM hacks.
Well put. Although I do use reddit it is information overload. Here it does feel slower paced and easier to digest 😅 feels more like old school forums in that sense
What’s your setup for playing retro titles? Do you own the original hardware or are you more of an emulation guy?
Mario Kart 64 is so comfy. Making me want to play it
Was also wondering what made you choose to do these posts on Lemmy rather than something like reddit? You’d get a lot more engagement there. Not that I’m complaining about you making Lemmy a lot more interesting 😅 just curious!
Second for mint, very easy to use. Also customisable if that’s your thing
As in ruby of blue? I love that guys sonic adventure videos. I’ve fallen asleep to them so many times (I mean this as a very big compliment 😆). Would love to see him do a video on the dream sonic adventure 2 remake with all his artwork!
You could try refreezer which is a mod of deezer. Allows you to download locally. Not the highest quality you can get but it’s convenient and free
Amazing I recently moved to a Sony phone. So I can change my OS to something open source now?
Yeah same, what are some good games to watch speed runs of?
Aww man at least you gave it a go 😆 I don’t know how people can get that good at games, it’s insane to a filthy casual such as myself
Would a sandboxed VM work for league of legends? Its the one game I occasionally play with friends that I haven’t been able to since moving to Linux. Not that I miss it much, just don’t want to be left out 🥺
