Vivaldi is somehow on top of Floorp so I’d say his reasons are laughable at best.

It’s because it’s quite popular so alot of people know it exists, but yes it’s a handheld console made by steam and it’s using linux, it’s basicly a Linux console.

Unless the Steamdeck flew under your radar you should know that you can absolutly play games on Linux. Most of the exceptions are big online games with crazy anti-cheats (yeah in that case no luck).

As for hope : migrating to another OS (be it Linux, MacOS or whatever) can be disorienting at first, wich tend to repel some people (it’s like learning how to use a pc for the first time), that’s actually the most important thing to keep in mind for everything to go smoothly, you don’t need to be a tech wizzard, just to be patient.

As long as you don’t rush things, don’t expect everything to behave as somekind of windows clone and learn how it works a bit you should be fine.

Before you try anything I’d also suggest you check if all the software you are using are available on Linux and if not what alternative you can use : alternativeto.net can help. To check if the games you play work you can also go to protondb.com. Preparing as much as you can before install is a huge plus, and it’s really not that hard.

As an exemple I’ve helped a curious friend who wanted to try Linux, they’re the most tech illiterate person I’ve ever known…like even worse than some old people. It took them two hard month to be fully acclimated, like as fine as they were doing on windows if not better. Never even asked me for help ever since. (My eyes still bleed when I see how they’re using their pc but they clearly have no issue doing whatever they’re doing) So if they can I’m sure anyone can.

no…

Yep that’s exactly what it says. Didn’t expect it to get «power vacuum» right.

Thanks :)

Seems like I made a good choice so far.

I thought about going to lemmy.world at first, only to get confused about why some instances where blocked for seemingly weird reasons, didn’t realize Hexbear was among them, the more I tried to learn why the less I wanted anything to do with lemmy.world. A bit of a shame considering how big they are and that one community I followed was there, but I can’t say it was a loss.

thanks now I can’t unsee it

Wished I saw that when I was still unsure about joining this instance x)

(I came from lemm.ee and some people pretended everyone here were jerks or something, can’t believe I almost fell for it !)

When the video went out it was so unreal to me that I gaslighted myself into thinking a fox had died and not Mikayla, only bit by bit I started to process what really happend.

It’s not the first time I’ve learned that someone I followed on the internet since forever had died for the sadest reasons…but I think it was the first time I actually cried about it.

I would have never expected her to be bullied to death considering she was just rescuing foxes and showing cute videos of them having a new life, like wtf is wrong with people…
