Gaming on Linux hasn't been great so far...

It's been a little while since we did our first Linux video... so today we talk about the performance comparison between Linux and Windows with bonus footage...

Follow-up video to https://lemmy.world/post/32690521

Spoiler alert: the main reason he says the experience “hasn’t been great” is because shortly before posting the video his Linux install mysteriously broke and he had no idea why. Therefore, he recommended dual-booting Windows just in case.

Cue sea of comments explaining that the reason for the error he was getting was that Windows screwed up his bootloader (i.e. the problem was caused by dual-booting to begin with, LOL).

    Yeah, if you’ve got two EFI partitions on separate disks and one is for Windows while the other is for your Linux, you’re good. Windows likes to reinstall its bootloader which sets it as the default and sometimes overwrites the Linux bootloader, but not if it’s on a different EFI partition, then it doesn’t “know” about it.
