Went to Fedora on Pro gen 1, works great. Pen input in Krita works great. Really miss the form factor of that first gen. I feel like they're too big now.

I recall setting up wine for the original World of Warcraft. That was such a pain to do. Performance was great.

Running games on Linux now is easier than I ever could imagine. Especially with steam and the other launchers added such as Lutris.

Been rocking the game Grounded on my steam deck while my kids are on their windows machines. And it has great performance even output to 1080p monitor.

I agree it seems like most the comments are from people who haven't even attempted to run games on it. Or maybe there attempt was just to double clicked the setup.exe and it didn't work like windows and they threw their arms up and walked away.

As I recall it, and correct me if I am wrong; but Linux and Distros are given keys to use? So if they want to they can revoke those keys and you could only install a Windows operating system?

Miss the size 64vs64 of Tribes II, miss runs with a loaded transport, Juggernaut on the back. Strike covering. I know it's playable still, I check in every so often.

Focus maybe on some CLI tools, like text editor. I use Vim, it was pain to learn but been worth it, since you don't have to leave the keyboard for anything. Once you learn the layout you can use it in other IDEs that also, many have plugins or built in support for Vim layout (JetBrains IDEs do) so I can use the same key map in desktop apps to do C# and C++, etc..
Also use Vim Mode that mode in the https://obsidian.md/. Which is great since you can also use Vim in the CLI to edit the Markdown Files.
Good Vim Cheat Sheet, bit confusing but as you get use to VIM it makes more sense.

Also this book is pretty handy, the 3rd edition dropped GUI apps and focuses 100% on CLI.

Handy if you have a Steam Deck also.
