That’s good to know as I do love XFCE

XFCE as I like the look of the classic Windows layout. Might eventually try out KDE for Wayland support but there’s something about the simplicity of XFCE which I love.

Thanks for reminding me, I need to try Inkscape properly and watch tutorials of it.

appreciate the diagram.

Thank you so much! I wasn’t sure how to explain it without it being too wordy. Can’t wait once I got the DAC where I can switch inputs for my PC and Dreamcast.

Do you know what parts you’re gonna get for your computer and have you checked them for Linux drivers?

Roughly, yes I know the parts I want. I am going down full AMD route mainly for Linux compatibility. If NVIDIA isn’t as hit and miss for Linux desktop, I would of get the graphics card as from what I read online, they suppose to be good for rendering videos or at least for DaVinci Resolve if I want to try to use the “industry standard”. For now, I would use Kdenlive and learn video editing there and if I can imagine wanting to do video-editing as a career, then I might learn Resolve.

Even though I’m Linux only, I think the dual-boot idea makes sense for you.

Same and I wish I can be 100% Linux only, I don’t think the sort of workflow I want to have as well as my skill on Linux is somewhat limited. Will be interesting to try run few Windows application with WINE like Affinity Suite but the worse thing is that I can’t be arsed to keep tinkering around and would boot up Windows for it. I have a feeling there’s some guide to get it up and running on Linux somewhere online so it be both fun and tedious time of searching online for it and following the step.

And then there’s couple of online games that I believe have anti-cheats which doesn’t like Linux. I tend to be more a single-player gamer anyway so the worst thing for me would be having to boot to Windows to play games that doesn’t like Linux and refused for me to play online.
