And if you choose the btrfs option with limine - you also get automatic snapshots in the bootloader.

in reply to Wispy2891 • • •I've used Linux as my primary OS for many years, but I keep a copy of Windows on my current laptop for gaming. I know the gaming story on Linux is pretty good now, but having to hibernate and reboot is enough of a barrier to launching a game that it helps me stay more productive.
At home, my laptop sits on a stand with great airflow, but when trying to play The Witcher 3 on a desk while traveling, it overheated and throttled to the point it wasn't playable. On Linux, the thinkpad_acpi driver allows setting the fan level to "disengaged", which sounds like "off" but actually means unregulated and results in a considerably higher speed and cooling performance than the usual maximum. Some research led to the conclusion that while manual fan control is possible with certain apps on Windows, there is no way to exceed the maximum automatic speed.
It only took a couple minutes to set up Lutris and Proton to run the game, and as expected the mild abuse of my laptop's fan does make it playable. What I didn't expect is considerably faster load times, but I got those too.

Just a handy tip if you haven't already your laptop might sound like it's about to take off because it hasn't been cleaned in a while. Just search up a tutorial on YouTube for your laptop and be amazed at how much dust you will find clogging up your fan.
Also yeah that terminal thing is just arch and hyprland you really through yourself in the deep end there (I personally havnt used arch before). Linux mint on the other hand is super easy to use and the terminal is only there if you chose to use it.

in reply to pineapple • • •In the end I'm learning how everything works "behind the scenes" with a shock therapy (disclaimer: while I didn't use Linux as my personal desktop, I have a decade of experience with Linux servers, otherwise this migration would have been impossible to understand for me)
I was expecting for example an easy toggle for dark mode instead needs to set several constants on the terminal (for GTK, for qt, and so on)
Everything needs one hour of searching but I'm documenting everything for future reference in a markdown file
And I had to set home as a git repository because otherwise a literal comma in a wrong spot would crash everything and I wouldn't be able to revert it
For example I wanted to show the WiFi status on the taskbar (default doesn't show) and I forgot a comma in the JSON configuration file. The taskbar (waybar) didn't even start next time and I was presented with a completely empty wallpaper lol
