Today we're launching "End Of 10" (endof10.org) and bringing Linux to Windows 10 users!
On 14 October 2025, Microsoft will end support for Windows 10. Microsoft will no longer provide updates for the system and this will turn an estimated 200 to 400 million laptops and computers worldwide into security risks and heavily polluting e-waste.
Yours may be one of them.
I hate the ‘containerize everything’ methodology of Bazzite. I tried it, and every problem I ran into the solution was like ‘Oh, go add this line to the config file in this folder, easy peasy’, only nothing was where it should’ve been because everything was containerized. I get that it’s useful, but it’s not my jam. I like nobara a lot better (because it’s a regular distro, but also because it’s not-ubuntu which hates my bog-standard RTX3060 GPU for, uh, reasons; Pop wouldn’t let me update the nvidia driver without hard-locking the system no matter the version I tried, 2 installs of Ubuntu simply turned my monitor off with ‘no signal’ on boot and refused to do anything even when I let them sit there for 30 minutes, and Mint did the same thing booting the installer on USB.
However, I’ve since discovered pCloud and begun migrating my onedrive stuff over there. I was only ever using onedrive because it came installed with windows and I needed a place to put little stuff like my keepass passwords database and small projects and such to ensure that they were backed up. I would much rather use something with a linux-native client and without all the fucky-wuckiness that tends to be involved in any Microsoft product.
