To clarify there are several very popular online games with anti-cheat that will never work BUT there are also a ton of other multiplayer games that do work great. You aren’t going to be stuck in single-player only moving to Linux, you’ll just miss out on a handful of popular competitive games.

It’s not FOSS but it’s native, simple to use, and doesn’t have backend library issues I kept having with audacity.
I only got infected once that I know of. I had trouble reading from a floppy disk and so I set scandisk running on it and went to get some lunch. When I came back there had been a short power out and when it came back on my machine had rebooted with the disk in it which ran on startup and infected the machine. Thankfully it was non-destructive and I was able to clean it out with tools I had on another machine.
Same here, it’s less about the month to month technical changes and waaay more about general policy and major development decisions.
I’m not a musician but I recently stumbled across https://linuxmusicians.com/ which seems like a decent forum for people that are determined to make it work.

Nemoder@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linus Torvalds takes on evil developers, hardware errors and 'hilarious' AI hype46·1 year agoHohndel agreed but added that the industry needs to support these smaller projects – and not only with money. “Companies need to engage with these projects. Have your company adopt a couple of such projects and just participate. Read the code, review the patches, and provide moral support to the maintainers. It’s as simple as that.”
Really glad he said this, I keep seeing posts about how all these big companies could solve the problem by just throwing money at small projects and while that is better than nothing it would help way more to have their own developers helping to review and fix issues.
I ended up writing a perl script to generate a .m3u from a root music directory that shuffles all the subdirs so I can listen to full albums in random order instead of just tracks.
um, isn’t it easier to just:
sudo apt install yt-dlp
yt-dlp -U
