From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think it's a mixed bag. Some of the friction is just because people are used to the stupid ways Windows does stuff.
But there's other stuff like needing to manually change some downloaded files to have permission to execute that it makes sense for casual users to find confusing.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Piped NEVER WORKs for me. I click link it op now up in browser, but cannot play the content, do we know what could be possible solution?
Use libredirect and switch the instance with the keyboard shortcut if it doesn't work
I needed more Linux content thanks 🌻
I didn't watch the video but people are going to switch when they're ready. It's like smokers, you can't force them. Just be open about it if they ask and they might gain interest in it. Don't be too overbearing and be open about the issues you run into when they happen. Remember both Mac os and Windows can be buggy and frustrating at times too.
My mother wanted to switch when she learned that you could play games on it and saw me use it for a week give or take, so I helped her. She's happily using fedora on her desktop and Linux mint on her ancient laptop now. Oddly enough gnome is less confusing than cinnamon to her. Maybe she's just use to the smartphone layout.
I can't recommend Seong's channel enough, his videos are always of such great quality
I wish there was an easy way to run Linux and Windows side by side. Only thing I need windows is for gaming, but I would gladly use Linux for everything else.
I've tried dual booting, but after some time it becomes a pain in the ass with my gaming and free time schedule being so hectic.
I've tried running it as a VM on Windows Hyper-V and VirtualBox, but it also proved to be a hassle with multiple monitors and different file systems.
Which game(s) are you having trouble running on Linux?
I admit it's been a long while since I've checked up on Linux gaming. My main games are PoE + all the 3rd party tools that you can't play without, BattleBit Remastered, Assetto Corsa + Competizione, F1 23, FH5, and W40k Darktide.
I also have Moza DD simracing setup, and AFAIK there are no drivers for Linux.
I literally watched that 1 minute ago
Very good video, the content and the editing are superb 👌💯
