Fedora, it fucking slaps and worked right out of the box. I’m using it for work and play on my main rig! I dual boot for some very specific hardware things that are not normal, but other than that it’s been seamless! When I booted into Windows 10 again, they auto installed copilot… Glad to be done with this crap.
Let me know if you have any specific games that are giving you problems. I also use Fedora (as of about 4 months ago) and dumped Windows entirely during that time.
Learning my way around Bottles was good to learn a bit more about how to troubleshoot my own Windows application compatibility problems so that I could troubleshoot problems that people hadn’t already solved with Lutris community scripts.
Don’t know what Lutris is… But I am wondering how I’m going to move my pirated games from Fit Girl and DOTI… Bottles I assume?
Lutris is an application where users commit installation/setup scripts for popular non steam games to manage setting up the environment to run them in.
Bottles is a similar program but the user is responsible for the setup process (that said it isn’t completely unguided- usually making a new bottle, picking the gaming preset, and then running whatever installer you have is enough). Underneath the hood they use largely the same compatibility layers/technogies to run windows applications, but learning a little bit about bottles will help you work through scenarios where a lutris script doesn’t exist or has been abandoned.
