People are installing and uninstalling ad blockers in record high numbers as a result of YouTube's anti-ad blocking efforts.

      t doesn’t say more people overall use ad blockers. It says people that were already using them are now switching between different extensions. Let’s wait and see if this increases Firefox’s market share. This could be the real good outcome of all this.

      That’s literally the first thing after I install any new system.

      • get firefox on a stick so I don’t have to open deprecated explorer or have to download Edge
      • install firefox, get ad blocker extension
      • then remove/turn off all the recommended shit that are now embedded to your start menu and task bar and lock screen. (I wish there is a github FOSS script that does this for new windows builds. )

      I will abandon windows when the games can all be played on Linux properly.

          Is there a compatibility list and performance difference?

          I have games that are not from steam so they will need to be able to run as well.(and games that requires their launcher, like EA/Ubisoft. Oh and some of them have denuvo.)

          How about other driver functions(recording game clips, instant replay buffers) that was provided on windows drivers?

          I am planning a new build(so many new hardware’s) so if all above are possible and don’t need some arcane knowledge (like suddenly you need to upgrade your libc and install new kernels and fuck around with driver compatibility) then consider me in.

          What/where would be the guide and distro to start with?
