Dark mode isn't the default in OSes for a reason folks. It's one of those accessibility aids that's grossly inaccessible to a ton of people.
Respect the OS settings if you're making an app!!!!!!!
If a user has chosen light mode and reduced motion, don't fucking launch with dark mode and swishy animations!
Don't be an asshole!
Too many devs are being absolute assholes!
So far the daily driver experiment is going... poorly.
Day to day use of the system for general computing ā Great.
Gaming compatibility ā No problem!
Overall performance ā ļø Despite all advocates, no, this is slower than Win10/11
Hardware Compatibility ā ļø No keyboard software, no drivers for USB devices... No USB drives unless they're inserted before boot?!?! (What is this, Win95?)
Lots of general niggles in social use of the PC like no sound in Discord screen sharing **is** a deal breaker I'm afraid and any solution cannot be hours in the terminal or solo-dev on github with homebrew curl commands.
Iām doing this Linux trial with my partner @kanthorne and so far.. so good!
I used to run Linux by default in 2006-2008 (didnāt use windows), then got a MacBookā¦. And still ran Linux on the MacBook by dual partition (needed to for uni). Dropped Linux in 2010 and then finally moved to windows 10 in late 2017ā¦ itās now 2024 and Iām going back to Linuxā¦. (At least for a while anyway to see!)
So far seems to be doing everything I want. Only exceptions are:
iCue (and it does not recognise my mouse/keyboard through open RGB)
Not keen on how it handles some stuff with triple screen setup.
Need to figure out steamdeck/macros for switching audio devices.
Otherwise. Yeah.. itās neat!!
