This YouTube statement is 10 years old.

I have an thinkpad x1 yoga with kubuntu. The touchscreen works.

So you are asking other people if its ok to be spineless. Looks like you already have the answer for that and didn’t liked it.

Recently installed office 2000 via bottles/wine on linux. The installation was so quick that i thought it crashed.

I know. Mint mostly stands for the cinnamon desktop. If you choose mint for another, you probably just can use the specific ubuntu spin or even debian itself.

I allways wonder why its mint and not kde, which seems more mature and even more like windows.

I am positively surprised, yes. Recently had an 3h call and my friend was in the us and iam in europe. It was flawless.

I migrated a friend group of skype to matrix/Element. Everything works just as fine.

Your guinea pig likes special characters alot.

Thanks for the tip.

I want a simple desktop with small elements to maximize real estate for windows.

While using a top AND bottom bar on the screen. Thats exactly my humour. I am specific about that, because its what confuses me the most about many gnome distros when they so that. The vertical space is the most important one, don’t waste it with additional bars.

I also had kde neon and switched to kubuntu. Its really nice and only has minor issues. I also tried opensuse beforehand, which was not a good experience, for example the sound did not work (which is a typical probl, at least says their wiki and the fixes were obsolete, but not documented that they were.) and as a final straw, YouTube video played without hw acceleration, even with codecs installed.

I had less problems with endeavour os (arch), which runs on a second rig as a steamdeck.

Not a good advice. A friend of mine is still on win7 and it still works and got security updates time to time. But some programs actually stopped working or only older lts versions remain workings. Win10 is probably still ok for a year or two.

Can confirm!

I still wonder what the difference made. I would image, it should be the same.

Did you try lutris out of flatpak? I don’t know why but this version has less issues. I compared lutris vs bottles and for me the performance of bottles was way worse. (Sadly). Because the bottles ui is much better

Do you know what the issue was? Iam on kubuntu with the flatpak version (important) of lutris and battle.net + sc2 just runs out of the box. With a normal installation of lutris it didn’t.

The most important setting for me, was to set the enemies as passive. So you can kill them off when you need place and they will never attack you on their own.
