Forced to use my phone during a windows update which breaks my computer. My phone is shitty and slow. Google is full of unhelpful results. Youtube is showing nothing but political ads about ms-13 killing white people.

Truly 2024 is great.

    Each update that almost kills my pc is driving me further and further to linux.

    At this point my busted old laptop is like Son Goku who gets a powerup each near death fight he has.

      Next PC build will 100% be Linux, I run it on most of my PCs, but my desktop runs Windows because of NVidia. Can't wait, lol

        Depending on how old your Nvidia card is you might be able to make the jump now, the beta drivers released in the last couple months have made huge leaps in making Nvidia cards function on Wayland. My only remaining gripe is discord flickering but I may just need to try a different discord client.

            Just wanted to also echo that sentiment. Using a nvidia card and after the Nvidia 555 driver update things are almost perfect on Wayland for me. Keep an eye on future nvidia updates because I'd say your near-future decision is almost here from a software standpoint

      I eventually deleted Windows after a few months of not booting into it cuz it kept breaking
