Thank you very much for the great video :) I have some thoughts on your video schedule: Five videos in one day seems like a lot. Wouldn't it be better to release one video per day? In the past, there have been days without any videos. I would prefer a more consistent schedule, with at least one video every day. Maybe two if necessary. I believe this might also improve the number of views. Kind regards from Germany^^

cachyos is the best distro i have tried so far

Someone's really gotta figure out this Photoshop alternative on Linux thing. I've swore off Photoshop more then a decade ago and decided to just use Gimp, instead. That hasn't worked out so well for me and lately I'm kinda getting tired of it. Gimp's just not getting much better even after all this time. Which is strange considering I also swore off 3d Max at the same time and decided to use only Blender, which was a wonderful decision in comparison as Blender in now industry leading software, while Gimp still rides the short bus. Disagree with your take on AMD GPUs being useless. I use one. Everything important eventually gets ported to ROCM. Stable Diffusion, Chat GPT, Cycles all work on ROCM. I only lose out on weird experimental software and even that will probably change soon with CUDA to ROCM translation layers that are now open source.

That secret Microsoft Edge install kinda sus. 1:24 Digital audio Workstation is the correct phrase "DAW" references.

I'm really just missing history brush tool

Very interesting, good job again. I prefer to do exactly this in mainboard bios/uefi. This ensures, i have same curves active with any OS i throw at my rig (quite a lot).

I hope adobe does not disturb the peace.

Is there a major benefit to using cachy instead of fedora for general use and gaming in your opinion? Or are they a fairly similar experience being both arch based?

I am challenging myself to stay on Garuda Dragonized someone needs to make all emulators work on Linux to combat Microsoft also I like your background where can I find it I wanted to make it look like Back to the Future. :)

There is a flathub flatpak for photopea called Photocrea

the Windows XP KDE sounds like a cool video, please do make it

If it's a web app there's probably some way to wrap it up in an Electron package or something to make it seem like an app. I know Android and iOS will let you basically save a web page as an app, as I've done that with my Mealie recipe database. Edit: Should have watched the whole thing before commenting lol

Steam games work fine for me, but I play most games that are not on steam, I installed them with Wine but I can't seem to get them to work without heavy workarounds. Most are very laggy or do not boot at all. Any tips to make those games work as well? ( I followed your fedora gaming video btw)

Why do you use gnome and not for example kde plasma? Im a beginner so it could be great to know more about that

You said your Heroic Games Launcher couldn't find your drive, did you correct mount your drive to a correct directory? If you had, you have to install a flatpak program called Flatseal which manages lots of permissions to flatpaks which are sandboxed by default, on the "Filesystem" section you will find this "Other Files", you have to add the correct permissions there so it can find your directories, i mostly activate only "/home", i do add another "other files" entry to my "/mnt" directory, you can be more specific and add only the drive you mounted example "/mnt/Files"

I wish standalone version of it on desktop. Love to use in on Linux.

I have to say that I find your language pretty harsh. Yes, there are a lot of problems with many applications for Linux, but keep in mind that most applications are written by developers in their spare time and provided for free. Some things that are not important to you may be important to others. Also, things in development are not always as simple as they may seem Personally, I still wouldn't recommend Linux to many people, because if something breaks, many people can't recover from it. Windows is still easier to use than Linux in many ways (at least if you do more than write documents and surf the internet) However it is always interesting to see how people experience their first steps in linux

Now that's really interesting, you brought me something i didn't know about the ZLUDA project, hope it goes all the way, since i think this is one of the problems of the AMD GPU's relying on old OpenCL even if ROCm/HIP works somehow, people will consider more the possibility of buying an AMD GPU card for work and not only for gaming. i know you have the latest Nvidia 4000 gpu's so you have AV1 hardware acceleration for encoding, but for decoding the first model that supports decoding is 2070 and 2050... 2060 doesn't because it came first (i have one, i am poor person from brazil), so people who has cards older than that will have problems with your video because it will use software rendering, at least into high resolutions, that is only one of the drawbacks of this codec (for now), but i think youtube does convert to H265 and VP9 anyways.

ALways saide "Linux is the future" and others always reacted "bruh, noooo" but today many ones are switching to Linux especially after Windows spyware scheme. Once again: LINUX is the FUTURE

The main issue I've had in Linux is playing games remotely. My gaming rig is an HTPC. On Windows, using Sunshine to stream from the PC and Moonlight as a remote client worked pretty flawlessly. On Linux, Moonlight won't connect unless the TV the PC is connected to is powered on. Maybe a dummy DisplayPort plug would fix that issue.

This channel is the reason I am trying to transition to Linux, but so far its been extremely bumpy and fraught with problems. But I am determined to try and make it work, using Fedora 40 with KDE 6.1 Plasma. Gaming for me doesn't work at all, nvida gpu. weird boot issues I have not figured out. application wise, it just rips! Love that part of it. I hope I figure it out soon. I am dual booting windows on one HDD and Fedora on a separate drive to keep windows from breaking the Grub Booter and that has worked perfectly.

Looks cool. Can you show us how it teaches you how to install third party windows programs that to not have Linux version? I moved to Zorin OS 17.1 and want to install both Cakewalk by Bandlab (DAW) and Sibelius (Notation).

Everytime I see someone playing higher level GW2 I think to myself it looks really cool. Then I level for an hour and quit lol

I just wanted to mention that your rant about keybindings is wrong. It's not "the way that Linux goes." This has nothing to do with Linux developers as a whole stalling things and everything to do with GNOME developers stalling things. There is a reason why a lot of long time Linux users hate GNOME and its developers. You are experiencing one of those reasons now with keybindings.

I use Linux since 2013 and I'll never go back to use windows.... Maybe mac os in the future maybe no .. if adobe and Microsoft launch's their products on Linux i believe more than 50% of windows user's will migrate to Linux

Thanks for your thoughts, a little long, but that's my opinion. I care nothing about gaming, yet it's clearly important to the masses, and thus I get why it's covered so much. Welcome to Linux, I have been using Linux as my family driving for over three years now coming over from macOS. God bless,

guide on how you got photoshop?

your first video encouraged me to let windows behind, I don't know that much as you or as the average linux user but I want to learn, I was having trouble learning windows 11 anyway so.

Wow. Nice

12:58 I use Photopea. Its actually really impressive and have some features even photoshop doesn't have.

Co to za distro Linux masz na filmie ? Dzięki.

The new thing promoted by people that do semi professional work with photo editing is Photopea.

6 years with Linux Mint after working with all versions of Windows. I'll never go back to windows! No crashes, everything works as it should, no bloatware to force me into buying a new computer every few years. All my PCs/Macs (laptops and desktops) now run Limux Mint!

how did you get photoshop to work

For me every fan need to be at 0 when multimedia consumption like youtube 4k/60, movie watching, music listen, writing etc. only games profiles need to start fan. looks like this app didnt allow for that ehh.

Excellent! Just what I was looking for. You actually answered my question with a tutorial. pretty awesome of you, Matt. Thanks for the help!

Great vid i was looking for something like this for some time

Is this the kde or the other version?

overwhelmed by plasma settings? can't see that tbh

I can't switch to Linux because of ms office, Adobe Photoshop, internet download manager, and many many more small small software which are paid one but those are way way superior then what Linux open source software offers. I'm sorry but Linux is just not there yet. What I do instead, I just modify the iso according to me with NTlite tool and just install security updates. Plus gaming is one the drawbacks of Linux, still it's not easy to set-up steam and play all games. I know Linux is free and what they offer for free is insane but as my daily driver nooo it's not up to the mark for my productive work

the f do they have to put OS at the end of every name. that's pretty cringe

You should always use what works for you, not what others say you should use and if that's Gnome, use it. For me it's Xfce. MX Linux Xfce is my daily driver.

Please, make a video showing your actual theme settings

I cannot for the life of me get Assassins Creed II to work on fedora. This is my only hiccup i havent been on linux in a while and really enjoying fedora. The ubisoft launcher opens from lutris the game is there in my library and there is a download button but it wants to install steam whcih i already have installed. All configurations are set to ge proton 9-7 but its just like the ubisoft connect and steam are not communicating and if i click the play button in steam it says theres no launcher installed.

Worst wallpaper ever.

Wait wut?

Found your channel just as you were converting to Fedora, as I was browsing on my newly installed Fedora as a Windows user since birth lmao Thank you Gaben for pushing Linux gaming more mainstream

I just want my gpu to work…lol

I my self quite happy whit Linux and hopefully it will become even better,also i cant wait for your future videos i want to learn as much as i can abut linux

It's great to see your opinions and experience on Linux. I think I'm one of a great many that are utterly sick of MS and want to use Linux, but I'm just unsure which distro etc to pick or how to get into it. Like the vast majority of people I'm a pc user, not a pc engineer or a software developer, meaning a lot of technical discussion is wasted on me :) PS - I tried joining your Discord, but couldn't get through the double protection at start. The link consistently dropped a Timed Out error and there's no one to actually ask for help to sort, so for me it was an utter waste of time. Hopefully you can do something at your end to solve this. I'm using a stripped out and locked down version of Windows (re: Chis Titus) if that's of any help.
