like, it’s an entire OPERATING SYSTEM! ofc the people who help make excellent open-source software that can handily compete with the big companies are awesome too!

I’ve installed Ubuntu on both of my old laptops but they are so old that I can’t effectively daily drive them (they are heavy, thick, terrible screen, battery is dead, etc)

I’m thinking of switching to Linux for my newer laptop, but I want to wait until the holidays. Hopefully the bugs around touchscreens will be fixed soon!

Fedora. I thunk my device might not be supported, or maybe there’s some software I need to install to make it work. Not a huge deal though.

vibes man

I think it might not be supported. My device is an Asus Zenbook 14 Flip so might not be supported compared to something like a lenovo yoga or the tuxedo flip.

Ahh that’s why. Okay gotcha that makes sense. If I do switch, I’ll probably test both a bit more to see which I like using the best. I just booted the live usb and played around for a bit, testing things like touchscreen support and auto-rotate

Linux Mint XFCE, it was easy to setup and could run on my really old laptop.

also one annoying thing is that normally on windows, since my laptop is one of those flexy 2-in-1s, it auto-rotates depending on how you put it (like “tent mode” or “book mode”). On both KDE Plasma and GNOME, it doesn’t work. I guess my specific device isn’t supported? I can live with that though, I can rotate the screen manually and don’t realistically rotate the screen all too often.

Cinnamon with Mint is still great UI, it just feels slightly less modern in my opinion. Still much better than Windows with their pre-2000 UI once you go deep enough

I would encourage you to try to learn gaem development, it’s fun :D I’ve personally tried Unity and Godot and prefer the latter bc it’s oepn-source and I like the workflow but both are good.

Brackeys makes the best Unity tutorials and he’s starting to make some pretty good Godot ones too. My first games were pretty much following along the Brackeys tutorials and then trying to extend the game by adding more levels, gimmicks, etc. and learning a bunch of new things along the way. Some more Godot specific tutorials I like are GDQuest and HeartBeast.

Good luck on your game development journey! :D

music is good :D

everything would taste weird though

ahh okay :0

wait…how is forgejo developed on forgejo? If there is no forgejo to begin with, how did they begin developing?

edit: maybe they switched from github to forgejo a bit later?

ah okay I’ll try that

how so? Is it easier to set up or have more features? What’s the difference? please educate me :D

what’s the difference?
