… and it’s much, much better than I anticipated. Proton has solved so many things. I’ve been dual booting on a smaller partition so far, but this has convinced me to wipe the whole disk and use it for Linux only. I might still keep a dual boot in case there is some edge case, but nothing so far has been an issue. I’ve been running Pop_Os! which I also have on my laptop since some year back. Previously I’ve also always had Arch on my laptop, but always stuck with Windows for my desktop just because of gaming issues.
driver for what? I put all my old people on bazzite so I’m not maintaining 3 versions of windows and several linux distros and so far everything works except one printer I had to install the driver via rpm-ostree.
Bluetooth dongle by Asus, doesn’t work properly without their own driver :/
Oh yeah wireless dongles can be annoying. I had a stack of intel combined wifi/bt laptop chips mooched from an old job that I had been subbing in on family computers because they just work and motherboards with built in wifi use the same ones usually. I did that thing again where I resolved the problem for myself then forgot it existed for others.
