  • That’s the tool yes. I’ve followed a guide that should have also included optimization. One of the problems I encountered: it doesn’t recognize the monitors properly which makes it a pain e.g. opening an email in a new window. Also lots of flickering and "wrong"colors (Outlook icon is turquoise for example). Nonetheless I would need a “full” Windows environment for the training sessions anyways (don’t want to confuse the attendees more than necessary by showing them an unfamiliar OS)




  • I made the switch a few days ago. At the moment I’m running a dual boot setup as unfortunately I can’t completely drop Windows for work sessions. I settled on Linux Mint as I couldn’t get Nobara (a fedora fork or sth) to run stable.

    I have no experience with Linux (except for owning a steam deck and using live CDs some years ago), so I was looking for sth simple and able to run games.

    I’ve been doing more tweaking than I thought but that’s mainly due to my hardware, e.g. getting the stream deck and the rodecaster to run. I’ve learned a bunch of stuff while tinkering with all of this and I can recommend Linux Mint due to its ease of use and very large community where someone probably had your exact problem before and even documented it in some way.

    Can’t say much about other distros but I don’t think I’ll switch to another any time soon.
