God Damn it MS
Install Linux Problem Solved
I’m sorry, is this an AI Generated keyboard…?
Not saying it isn’t, but if the reason why you’re saying that is because of the z/y key, I know one of the EU layouts swaps it. German I think?
Yes, a German keyboard has swapped the letter Z and Y (and some other differences). Maybe this is a keyboard that shows both so more people can use it.
On the one hand this is getting old, we know MS shit the bed and it’s gonna be MS copilot featuring Windows soon.
On the other,… man is this a spectacular way to run a company into the ground 🤣
Ok, we could put this into the category of W8 with its tile system. They try something new, it backfires, back to square one. (The menu button moves back to the lower left corner). But I dunno, despite there already being rumours an option to fully disable copilot “rolled out to administrators” soon.
I don’t think they’ll just try and sweep this one under the rug as quickly after all this disastrous doubling down.

I hope my company will switch to something different. Microsoft ist getting worse and worse
Give me LTSC or give me death!
Can I interest you in this beautiful Linux distribution?
Bazzite, all night. I’ll fortune to transition towards Linux but I still need the sad, commercial and technical predictability of Windows for some time longer.
I think I am really going enjoy this new feature in Windows. Enjoy laughing at Microsoft’s absurdity while using the latest new and actually useful features in Mint 22.3, that is.
Jokes on them i replaced explorer with Directory Opus years ago… The only piece of software i miss on linux its perfect
I used to have that on the Amiga.
KDE Dolphin works on Windows for those who really need Windows. Otherwise I recommend simplified Arch-based distros, but Mint is also good.
Does it? I know KDE used to make a Windows version back in the day, but I didn’t know that was still in development.
Lot of KDE apps are also on Windows, most famously Krita (art program that is on par with pqid proprietary offerings), but the KDE suite contains so many bangers like KATE (text editor faster than VSCode, with plugin support).
I knew that the “standard” KDE apps have windows versions, but Dolphin?
Edit: Looks like the newest version of Dolphin for Windows is from the development branch and was made in 2022.
I’m trying to think of a time when I thought “oh, if only I had an IA assistant in my file manager”…
Well you see, if you thought windows search was bad at finding files in the folder you already had opened when you starting searching for them before…
I have to say it’s probably the only way you’ll ever get any kind of bulk rename out of a Microsoft OS.
I wonder if I’ll soon be able to just lean back and bark orders at my PC.
Sucks to still be a windows user and not want to learn how to use Linux.
Yeah, I know. Install Linux.
I’ll do that when every single gaming title works flawlessly on it and not a second before.
Until then, I’ll utilize whatever workaround the community comes up with to strip this shit out of File Explorer.
P.S. Many games still don’t work on Linux. https://areweanticheatyet.com/
Honestly all my games have ran on bazzite better than windows with better FPS. And much less RAM consumption. Even some of those EAC games run well.
The more people that leave MS the more support Linux games will get.
Great source for sure. Had this bookmarked
It’s free bro just install it quit being a puss
Sorry, I like playing my games which span a 30 year timeframe. And if even one didn’t work on Linux, then it isn’t worth it to me.
Ok, have fun on windows while the rest of us move to Linux and enjoy gaming there.
Between Lutris and Steam, I’ve been able to run every game flawlessly – several with better performance than I’ve seen on Windows, even.
The only limitation is anti-cheat software that some games (Team Fortress, Battlefield, etc.) require. I don’t play those types of games myself, so it’s not an issue for me.
Oh you holding out for those few microtransaction storefronts that are SO much fun?
I’ve never had a single issue with any game on Linux. Just do it
Yup, never gonna run Win11
Everyday that passes my satisfaction has grown since jumping over to Linux Mint.
I nuked my win11 installation a week ago and went with cachyos (it’s arch btw) and I just feel like; even if mslop fixes their shit, I wont go back.
Woah, Arch users scares me, the way you meet someone that is much taller!
How is your time so far with the new OS? Lots of new things and issues?
Sliding in the comments: CachyOS is really easy to use, nothing mystical about it.
Yeah, its handholdy.
Ive used arch on a few servers so it feels homey even if I’ve never used a wm before. Most issues has been small and solvable.
I’m thrilled for seeing my RAM idle at half the amount it did when I was on Windows. Loving Mint… or any debian distro for that matter.
In these trying times it helps more than ever to run an OS that sips rather than slurps that precious ddr5.
Mints great. I like POPos myself but its all good.
Guys, what’s the best Linux distro to install on my PC?
The community:
Yea it’s funny I’ve asked the community before whats the best Linux distro for XYZ and have had all sorts of responses. It took running mint, manjaro, ubunto, pop, tried arch, to figure out that it’s a ridiculous question. The community can only help you pick one to start with, but given there’s 3 real bases and thousands of choices off each base it’s quite frankly up to preference for the most part what Linux distro will work best for you!
Distro chooser is a thing. Or was. I’m not being able to open the site right now.
From that point forward, it is up to the user to decide how much or little they want or need.
Yep im guilty of that.
Honestly as long as theare using some kind of *nix im happy.
There’s no one size fits all for picking a distro, it’s up to the user.
Except arch, arch is perfect
/s
I love when people try to criticize this. They cant imagine having options.
Everyday that passes my satisfaction has grown since jumping over to Linux Mint.
Yes! Our recent Linux Mint software update drama was some nice new quality of life improvements coming to the next version of KDE Plasma.
Watching Windows 11 unfold from this side has been like sipping a cup of hot tea on the porch, wearing a good jacket, during a rain storm, while holding the storm door open for folks coming in out of the bad weather.
