Yo linux team, i would love some advice.

I’m pretty mad at windows, 11 keeps getting worse and worse and I pretty done with Bill’s fetishes about bing and ai. Who knows where’s cortana right now…

Anyway, I heard about this new company called Linux and I’m open to try new stuff. I’m a simple guy and just need some basic stuff:

  • graphic stuff: affinity, canva, corel, gimp etc… (no adobe anymore, please don’t ask.)
  • 3d modelling and render: blender, rhino, cinema, keyshot
  • video editing: davinci
  • some little coding in Dart/flutter (i use VS code, I don’t know if this is good or bad)
  • a working file explorer (can’t believe i have to say this)
  • NO FUCKIN ADS
  • NO MF STUPID ASS DISGUSTING ADVERTISING

The tricky part is the laptop, a zenbook duo pro (i9-10/rtx2060), with double touch screens.

I tried ubuntu several years ago but since it wasn’t ready for my use i never went into different distros and their differences. Now unfortunately, ready or not, I need to switch.

Edit: the linux-company thing is just for triggering people, sorry I didn’t know it was this effective.

    Whoa.

    You seem to be a lot more vehement about this than I am. Not to mention confidently uninformed on arch.

    I don’t think this is worth getting into further. You’ve already decided I’m some kind of elitist, deserving of insulting analogies thrown at them.

      No, I’m simply standing behind my initial statement, and pointing out why your counter argument is bad.

      Not to mention confidently uninformed on arch.

      Wat is arch? I only used it and its derivatives on multiple devices for multiple years in my 15+ years of Linux

      How I’m imagining this response in real life

      If you think a hyperbolised analogy is an insult, take care of your delicate constitution and don’t risk maladies by entering discussions on the internet.

        It’s not though.

        Good for you.

        If you think a hyperbolised analogy is an insult, take care of your delicate constitution and don’t risk maladies by entering discussions on the internet.

        I mean, if my assumption that you were being mean-spirited before was strenuous, this and linking that video makes it a sealed deal.

        You can’t get under my skin, but that doesn’t mean you’re not being shitty by trying.
