It’s really fun, disappointed that I waited this long to play them.

You can install the blizzard launcher from the desktop in the deck, add it as a non steam game then do the same thing for Diablo 2 once blizzard downloads it. I forget the actual steps, but I followed a guide online.

Diablo 2. Haven’t played any Diablo games until a few days ago, but can’t put the damn game damn now.

Ok thanks. I was thinking about playing Diablo 2 first, I heard it’s the best, I just got it in sale so I’ll give it a go.

Thanks. Are the stories stand alone or would I be lost paying this as me first?

That’s a pretty similar story to mine. Used Linux pretty exclusively over a decade ago, then switched back for my gaming PC. Now that I’m back on Linux though, I don’t see any reason to use windows on anything but my company PC, Linux is just better IMO now.

Not sure what Adobe products you’re using, or in what application, but I do photography as a hobby and do my editing on my linux machines. Rawtherapee and DarkTable are good alternatives to lightroom, with Gimp being a very good alternative to Photoshop. Gimp is getting better all the time, but Darktable already is a stronger editor than Lightroom.

Haven’t tried any video editing alternatives (not my thing), but these programs have the added benefit of being free.

A version of linux (distro). I’m running Fedora and it’s fantastic

Give Linux Mint a try. It is very similar to Windows and will make the transition very smooth. Pretty much any windows programs that you want to run you can run in a shell like Wine.

Or trying to do any work on the go? This whole idea is just idiotic to me.

The situation has never been better for comfortably abandoning Windows. Come to Linux, we have penguins

How does Diablo play on the deck? I’ve never played a Diablo game, but really want to play this one, can I hop in without having played the others?

That’s a great list. Mine are, in no particular order:

Witcher 3

Hades (never liked rogue-lites till this one and Dead Cells)

Dead Cells

Soul Reaver (playing through the legacy of Kain series, this one plays well enough)

Transistor (basic but fun)

Skyrim (going to give Morrowind a play through on here now)

Shadow of Mordor

Vampire Survivors

Tons of emualated games

Whoops

I just bought a T480 Thinkpad off of eBay a few weeks ago for around $150 USD and put fedora 38 on it. Purchased a larger battery for $45 and an extra 8gb ram for like $20 and honestly couldn’t be happier with it.

This. They had no way to be sure that the sound they detected was from the sun imploding. From the standpoint of the search crew, it makes much more sense to continue until you can verify without a doubt that you detected the failure.

I’m on fedora and it’s been fantastic

Nice. I hadn’t used linux in a few years and I’m really amazed at how damn good it’s gotten.

Currently running Fedora 38 on my Thinkpad and it’s wicked fast. Definitely my favorite distro at the moment.

Gaming on Linux has gotten much better in the recent years. Honestly with the exception of games that use anit-cheat software, most games play just fine on Linux systems. I’ve abandoned windows, but my PC at work has windows 11 on it. I feels snappier and definitely looks better than windows 10. I’d say upgrade, but that’s going to be your preference (I’d go Linux unless you play mostly fps or competitive games)
