They wouldn’t be suggesting it if you used Linux

That sounds like good advice, you should take it.

Is it? I switched ten years ago, and I had to switch back in two years. And even this year, I couldn’t even finish writing my plugin on Linux because support for the software I needed is still lacking.

I keep hearing about this “software I need” but never any examples, I’m genuinely curious as I really don’t know of many things that you can’t at least use a VM for

Figma for Linux is unable to promptly load fonts and the issue has been open since last year. I don’t have a system capable of ruining a VM without consuming a lot of power or taking a significant performance hit.

But if you switch to Linux you can come here and proselytize to the userbase in just a out anything thread, regardless of topic. Doesn’t that sound better than using your software?

It’s easier to ignore asshole comment sections than an asshole OS.

I’ve been probably saying that for longer than you have been alive

I’m certain you could fix this issue by switching to Linux.

Can confirm, i used to have that same exact issue but it went away when i switched to linux

Yup, I had a whole different set of issues to fix when I switched to Linux. 😅

Yeah that was about my experience from switching as well 😭. It’s absolutely worth it, but god damn if there aren’t moments where I want to rip my hair out troubleshooting some issue that’s just plug and play on windows.
