Not even going down that track, I’ve been messing with Linux for 15yr and happy to say about 2yr ago switched to Linux mint daily driver and not going back. Can do everything I need to:

Work (teams, prospect mail for Outlook, zoom, etc)

Gaming (Steam and Proton make playing 95% games a reality and actually works great surprisingly)

Music Production (Bitwig - truly awesome DAW very comparable to Ableton live - no BS actually is a TRUE contender and great and stable DAW, by far the best ever used in Linux)

Windows 11 can suck it

Thank you for sharing that interesting watch, cool music

Literally everything was easy about it 5-10 years ago. Even 20yrs ago starting with Napster. Shit was the wild west you could pretty much do whatever you want. Apart from the various rogue virus laden crap. Torrent trackers got good about reporting bad ones though.

Not sure how it’s easier I can’t get near a torrent site without getting dumb letters from ISP. "get a VPN… "

OK. Well that’s not easier than ever, is it lol.

I’ve been using oneplus phones for years and theyre awesome but I’m not running the oxygenOS that it comes with, I’m running lineageOS or other AOSP type of roms.

Haven’t messed with the stock oxygen (I think it’s called ColorOS now?) in a while, but maybe will check it out. Far as I knew it didn’t really come with any bloat ware?
