I remember the days of issues with sound cards using oss, and how after years of frustration, alsa worked perfectly fine and the very next release of Ubuntu, they moved to pulseaudio which made it all shit again. That was the last time I installed Ubuntu, I went through Debian, then os X and now nixos.

Linux gaming just isn't there and I use my PC mostly for gaming, so that's a difficult decision.

I've used Linux before. I like Linux. But, Windows is my native language, so to speak. I've been using Windows since childhood and quite frankly I'd like to stick with it. I know there are variations of Linux that get really close to emulating the Windows experience but it's just not the same.

It's going to take a lot of straw to finally break the camel's back.

Because it won't be reset or ignored

Changing your OS is easier than switching a toggle? What the fuck are we doing here?
