Windows is hell, i need to do something

dan00@lemm.ee to Linux@lemmy.ml – 262 points –

Yo linux team, i would love some advice.

I’m pretty mad at windows, 11 keeps getting worse and worse and I pretty done with Bill’s fetishes about bing and ai. Who knows where’s cortana right now…

Anyway, I heard about this new company called Linux and I’m open to try new stuff. I’m a simple guy and just need some basic stuff:

  • graphic stuff: affinity, canva, corel, gimp etc.. (no adobe anymore, please don’t ask.)
  • 3d modelling and render: blender, rhino, cinema, keyshot
  • video editing: davinci
  • some little coding in Dart/flutter (i use VS code, I don’t know if this is good or bad)
  • a working file explorer (can’t believe i have to say this)
  • NO FUCKIN ADS
  • NO MF STUPID ASS DISGUSTING ADVERTISING

The tricky part is the laptop, a zenbook duo pro (i9-10/rtx2060), with double touch screens.

I tried ubuntu several years ago but since it wasn’t ready for my use i never went into different distros and their differences. Now unfortunately, ready or not, I need to switch.

Edit: the linux-company thing is just for triggering people, sorry I didn’t know it was this effective.

nope, since fedora 38 this button enables full access to flathub. it also lets you install proprietary nvidia drivers from gnome-software with one click. hardware decoding via ffmpeg also works for flathub apps that require it.

Oh nice, didnt know that.

I am not sure how well that works, as NVIDIA drivers need a karg and a blocklist of nouveau.

ffmpeg needs to be installed mit --allowerasing

While yes for sure flathub apps have support, you still have a preinstalled Firefox and a flatpak remote that both dont have the nonfree stuff. This is just very confusing.

But btw Firefox RPM has support for user namespace sandboxes, allowing process isolation. So just using the official Flatpak is not a real solution.
