    Congratulations!

    Did you go the full Lemmy route and install Linux, or Windows? If Linux, which distro did you choose?

      Not sure what full lemmy route is. But built full AMD, used only lemmy for support. Been fully on linux for 8years + before i was dual booting to play games here and there.

      I wanted cachyos but live usb wasnt booting, then tried endeavour and it worked.

        I just meant the prevalent reflex here to tell everyone to switch to Linux. And while gaming had a huge boost on Linux, there are still some cases (especially around Kernel level anti cheat), where (pure) Linux might not be a viable alternative, depending on the type of games you play.

          Its funny, coz i do it in real life.

          So far ive managed my family and close friends to switch to linux. I’m always there to support then though.
