  • I have ran GNU/Linux since the early 1990s. Practically since it first existed. Distributions like MuLinux, Yellowdog Linux, Slackware, Debian, etc. This generally has lead to multiple difficulties. Sometimes I had to dual boot to get around said difficulties. Around 2010, I got good enough with WINE, software work arounds and alternatives that I didn’t need to dual boot anymore. I did like to play various games still back then, but around 2010 Valve’s GNU/Linux support was improving (unless my memory deceives me)

    This post has made me feel that for the first time, all that struggle was worth it, heh.

    On a side note, there’s some sort of dark irony with personal ownership dying under capitalism. I feel like the majority of us hate all these subscriptions models, but we keep playing along .vs. becoming cave hermits.
