      Me too. I had a custom gaming computer, but windows didn’t support it for windows 11. It took me awhile to find the right distro. I dealt with the same thing on the Linux side with people telling me I just had to replace all my hardware for Linux compatibility. Finally found CachyOS and it’s been one of the first times everything just worked on my computer.

      I had already switched, I just nuked my old windows partition that I was keeping around for literally one program. Then I got some standalone DJ decks, and the program to export MP3/WAV/OGG/FLACC to work with them only runs on windows, so I got a win10 m$ surface 5 for £30 and it’s only jobs are to format stuff for the decks, read totally legally sourced manga, and practice hiragana/katana/kanji.

      And… honestly? I’ve got my whole music library formatted and transferred to a usb for the decks… probably going to wipe it and install Nobara or something with the Surface Kernel Patch preloaded…
