Even PewDiePie thinks you should install Linux on your computer after saying he was "tortured by Windows"

I DON'T CARE WHAT THIS NAZI BURNOUT THINKS

Rather that noobs stay on win tbh. If gnu/Linux become mainstream, the Adobe, MS etc etc will just move onto Linux. Just look at flathub - how many of the top downloaded programs are proprietary? A lot, e.g. Discord and Steam.

This is a genuine concern that I have.

I'm not a tech guy

• Installs Arch
• Installs Hyperland
• Makes custom animated ASCII art for NeoFetch
• Makes custom bash script for his sponsor spot
• Creates a completely custom reactor-themed desktop

Yeah I think he's a tech guy...he just doesn't know how to build computers (that was painful to watch).

I’ve never watched any of his videos. They just don’t appeal to me and never have. However, given his apparent fame, it’s good for linux.

The more people acknowledge linux’s existence, the more engagement, the more growth.

Here’s hoping someday Windows will be a nasty memory.

This seals it, I should never use Linux again.

First i need to know what Katy Perry thinks about linux

Wait, this guy is still around and relevant?

My windows partition forced me to do an update which has now broken the start menu and right clicking on pinned icons. Thanks Microsoft. Great job.

I really can't wait to be rid of it completely but unfortunately the building and construction industry is addicted to torture and refuses to move on from Autodesk.

I’m not sure anyone really cares about PewDiePie anymore, let alone what OS he uses.

The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point

Seems like PewDiePie is a lot more open-minded than a lot of Windows users lol

Yes, Linux is king. More stable, better hardware utilization. Better customizability. Linux just makes more sense.

And tech papers like Heise now include a test how Linux runs for new gaming devices. Is 2025 the year of the Linux desktop?

Broken clocks are still right twice a day.

It is actually a competitor. Mean Microsoft have to improve if they want to keep the users. With the Windows 10 EOL soon they will give up on those users on those computers. Basically forcing anyone else to take care of them - Linux stands there welcoming them. Users just need a push or someone saying try this for free.

Fuck that guy though. Probably get someone else to be your Linux spokesman.

I don’t think the video was bad and I’m glad desktop Linux is getting a good amount of attention this way.

But… I feel like he didn’t exactly show windows users what really expects them on Mint (which is a very similar but in many ways better and quite easy experience). This might be off putting to some unconvinced Windows users.

His Hyprland setup looks cool if you’re into that sorta thing but it’s just not what users just switching to mint, fedora, whatever might be looking for.

It’s hilarious of these folks defending this low life. How sad. Don’t give a moment of your life to an awful human being. And stop advertising for them for free. Get paid.

I'll wait to hear the opinions of James Corden, Ellen DeGeneres, Shia Labouf, JK Rowling, and Will Smith before selecting a new OS, thanks.

But which Linux?

Best argument for using Windows I've ever encountered tbh

Who? Anyways don’t do things because some clowning the interwebs is telling you it’s cool. Read documentation, talk to communities for multiple view points, trial and error. Best of luck.

Sure, test it, but in a virtual machine first. Then read up what you actually want.

Which distro he's using

and he bought land in japan. and learned surfing and maybe other things. everytime you mention pewds a microtransaction sends money to an american corpo. and nobody really wants that anymore.
