As a Mint user who just starting test-driving Arch: once you get through the installation the switch isn’t at all difficult. Now,t hat having been said, the installation can have some frustrating moments depending on how you go about it.

When you frame it that way, I start to think yours is the more likely prediction.
I mean, this particular cyberpunk dystopia isn’t what I had hoped for . . .
How are you? :)
This is my assumption, and there’s a roadmap in place already.
I’m anticipating that an ad-free version will be made available on educational or commercial licenses–or to home users for a nominal monthly fee. This mirrors the model used by Hulu, Prime, et al so there’s a roadmap in place for it.
I’m with you re: FOSS OS migration. Some folks will but the majority will stick with Windows because that’s what they do. It amazes me how many people think that Windows and MacOS are the only possible choices.
I’m naive enough to think it would happen faster if there were more market demand, but that’s likely my 1990s programming failing to adjust to the 21st century.
Granted I’m not a gamer but my Linux multi-OS desktop machine has zero problems with its nVidia GPU. YMMV, as we used to say.
Awesome. Hello Friend!
Are you looking to give the workshop or attend it?
Personally I’ve never used PopOS so I can’t speak to it.
Get in touch if you want and I’ll do what I can to help.
You. I like you. We can be friends.
. . . unless you want to pay a nominal monthly fee.
It does in that it’s easy to do and it’s easy to remove or switch to entirely. Partitioning is easy in its own way, but it does divide up your drive.
If you have a desktop maybe install a second drive, install Ubuntu on that, and see how it goes?
Mint’s Nvidia support has gotten A LOT better over the last few years. You can try it out and see how it goes. Message me if you want help with that.
Once again we bathe in the light of the Omnissiah!
My Sibling in Christ, giving us less for our money and giving them more control over our lives is the intent of all of this. Time to seize the means of computation.
I’m really glad that you’re enjoying Linux, and I’m doubly glad that your hospital found a solution to keep their system running smoothly!
