    I wouldn’t say that windows is about speed and performance now. Not to mention bloat.

    Most games running near same performance on Linux. And funny enough, some games run even better under proton + wine than windows versions

      Tbf it does say perceived speed. Perception is shaped by marketing and bells and whistles regardless of reality, and all that jazz.

        You know how many times I tried to install some driver on windows, just for it to say fuck you?

        • install windows Euro version

        • it dosent include direct sound

        • direct sound is probably a directx lib, install that

        • nope, I look it up (for euro version of course)

        • I should go to the „add or remove features”

        • type into searchbar, find it instantly

        • can’t find

        • apparently I’ve been using the legacy version thats accessible and correctly indexed in the search bar. What I need is the new thing with the same name that is only accessible in 3 sub menus

        • so basically if I want to install dhcp servers, hypervisor etc, I need the old menu, but if I want libs for those or slightly different versions I need the new menu

        • install

        • wat 10 mins at a loading bar that tells me nothing, just for it to fail with no error code

        • repeat until I go back to linux

        My perception is W11 is that it’s hella slow. Rainbow Dash should just get like Bazzite or CachyOS.
