Not sure about the repo route, never went that deep with Chrome. Firefox has always been my mainstay (and Netscape before it.)

Simple solution. Don’t use Chrome.

No one really knows yet.

I’ve done it in the past. It’s always a bit of work. But I really only need it for a handful of things at the most.

Next time I build a gaming machine it will be Linux based. 2x GPU’s and I’ll do a IOMMU passthrough to a Windows VM for any games that I still need it for. I have several machines and all but two are linux currently. My recording studio is Windows because I have too much invested in software at this point. And this rig which is my main\gaming pc. And if it wasn’t for some anticheat systems I would wipe this thing right now.

Fuck Emojis

I haven’t used Chrome in years now. Firefox has always been my home.

I’m certainly not OK with it.

I agree, I expected this to happen years ago.

It is, but it’s a lot harder to find privately hosted things thanks to advertising ruining all the major search engines.

Don’t do illegal things on your phone :)

Everything about this post is annoying.

Now there is some common sense.

This is really what people should understand, you CAN do all these things in Linux… you can change virtually anything to your liking if you are so inclined. And it’s usually a Google search away if you aren’t sure how to go about it.

Amen, I consider myself pretty savvy with Windows under the hood. Most of the time when my users see me ripping around in the registry to fix something they think I’m some crazy skilled hacker\programmer lol. It’s funny.

Good point

Until you have problems with hardware or something, generally I’d agree.

There’s ways to make A LOT of things compatible these days, or you could run a VM for your Windows apps.

As someone that has tried nearly every Linux desktop flavor\distro, Mint is GREAT for the novice. Or a pro even.

You can buy linux desktops these days too.
