Teen vogue killing it again.

Yeah I'm using Obsidian instead.

I wanted to see what the fuss was about after windows 11 came out, because I was sick of Windows intrusive UI and shady business practices.

I still use windows for some things, but now I duel boot to cinnamon and it is my daily desktop driver. I vastly prefer the clean interface and speed of Linux over windows, and I now play most of my games on it too. I was shocked when I realized that Elden Ring runs great, and looks better, on Linux while it was unplayable on windows at release.

I also installed Fedora to my surface pro after a windows update made it impossible to use without severe slowdown. I've had my surface for 6 years and it runs great on Linux.

The only downside to Linux is that, as am artist, the apps are limited. Blender is fantastic, Krita is catching up, but there is no way to use clip studio, harmony (toon boom, storyboard pro), or Zbrush (yes I can sculpt in blender but it is not quite there yet.)

Do you have any hobbies you like to do? I recommend investing in tools/supplies if that's your jam.

Had a really bad weed addiction (yes I know it's psychological but imo it was harder than quitting cigarettes)

Whenever I tried to quit I wouldn't be able to sleep for up to 3 days at a time. If I got past that I could be clean for a month or two before caving and falling back into weed usage.

Turns out I had really bad OCD and PTSD and zero serotonin (thus, no sleep). I got put on Lexapro and the obsessions were 90% better after that, and the weed usage has gone from daily to once every few months, with friends. The hard part has been adjusting, and developing, a new lifestyle and hobbies to replace the drug use. I also have Been grieving the decade I lost to addiction and trauma.

My tips: addiction is a response to something else going on. It's not laziness, it's not lack of willpower, it's not because you are a monster. It might be due to covering up pain, or because you're self medicating and don't realize it. Be kind to yourself, because the world is unnecessarily shitty to addicts.

Left me shook. Amazing game.

Top notch calligraphy there.

When you have OCD and ADHD so you hold onto the grudge because what if you forget??????

I'm waiting for the modding community to overhaul Starfield in 1 - 3 years before I'll even touch it.

BG3 is a blast and I can't get enough. It's the first game I've played that's felt like I'm a part of a fantasy novel. IMO it's because unlike a lot of other CRPG's it's really good about pacing out it's lore and not info dumping all over the player.

Ew.

Um, no, they're going to call grandson to do it lol.

Also, Linux mint is a very stable distro & I doubt grandma will have to do much if she just uses it for email, a browser, and sudoku
