yeah… fuck MS and Windows. I’ve already prepared a Live USB with CachyOS and I’m going to install it on my PC this evening. My laptop is already running Linux Mint for a few months now.
Edit: the installation is complete and was surprisingly easy and unproblematic. everything seems to work just fine up until now but I’m going to test it a bit more in depth over the next few days.
Honestly, I’ve been planning to install it on my media laptop for a while and I think I’ve found the perfect excuse for myself to do it; yesterday I turned it on to the windows 11 data recovery screen, which took an hour to fix the damn thing.
I have actually installed CachyOS on one of my spares and it’s pretty damn good so far, and it’s a really shitty speced school laptop from a couple years back.
What I am concerned about though is the fact my media laptop is an Asus vivobook 15 with screenpad, and I’m not awfully sure if the GPU (mx250) would be as fast as it currently is under windows (or work at all), as well as if the screenpad would work as a touch monitor or a regular touchpad, since I’m not sure which I’d prefer honestly.
