Is Windows 11 worth installing over 10? - Lemmy

I don’t really like Windows but it’s for my gaming PC. My laptop does run linux. I don’t know much of anything about 11 and whether it’s better or not.

No, install linux

I upgraded 10 to 11 and really liked it. Problem with linux is all the commandline if you want to do advanced stuff.

Then i got a gpt-4 subscription and installed arch linux with hyperland. I aint looking back, everytime i use a windows system now it feels slow and prehistoric… sometimes though you get some weird problem you just don’t wanna deal with at the time and then its briefly booting into windows again.

Windows 11 is extremely spyware, even more so than previous windows versions.
I used to use Windows all the time, but now I only use it for gaming. It's kind of weird to me how many Microsoft apps there are for Linux now.
Linux gaming has become much more viable of late with proton
Indeed, quite a suprise when i realized you can use lutrius to straight up start and play games installed on my windows drive.
😲 Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

@lemon @webghost0101 You can even achieve that with just #Wine. I carefully set up my Wine on my two devices with #DXVK on one and #GalliumNine on the other. Took a while, to be honest.

But now, together with wine-binfmt and icoutils, I can just double-click any #Windows game. 🍷

Its technically the same thing. Lutrius allows you to choose a specific proton version per game and proton is build on wine if i understand correctly.

Same with the double click the exe part but i suppose your way of doing it is more clean/minimal while Lutrius is more consumer friendly.

@webghost0101 I just want to say that vanilla Wine (weird flavour, but ok) can already run a lot of games fine if you install DXVK. It saves you the trouble of keeping seperate versions for everything.
