I made the switch with my old 1080ti the newer GPUs work even better and mine has given me almost 0 issues with Linux mint. It’s worth the dive. Mint also “just works” so it’s super easy to get into from Windows.

+1 for use of interrobang.

Some people have run solidworks on Linux with limited success. Granted I have never personally done it, from what I understand they used wine which emulates windows anyway. So it depends on how much time you are willing to sink to get things working.

Ah that makes sense. Thank you for going the privacy direction.

I’m not sure why but i am getting no audio from any video. (Granted they are probably mostly from redgifs)

I can only hope we get there. Lobbyists and profits make changes slow.
