I know the “best linux for gaming” is probably one of the most common questions, but I have heard that some distro can have issues with some hardware, I have a crappy old PC with an integrated radeon R7, which distro would you recommend?

Yeah, I’ve tried, and it doesn’t help. Also that does nothing for the fact that they are going to stop supporting Win10 sooner than later, and since my computer won’t run Win11 that means losing all security. Not to mention the microsoft using my data for nefarious reasons, constantly adding new bloatware garbage, and harvesting my data to use to train their AI.
I am done with windows, I am done with microsoft, and why am I having to explain my reasons and motivations for this in the Linux lemmy of all places? Do you work for microsoft or something???
You didn’t try hard enough. Windows 10 Enterprise with that app + manual tweaks in group policy described by Microsoft can be turned into a system that does zero reporting / calling home and one that runs very smoothly. For what’s worth you’ll spend less time changing those settings than what the time it takes to have a usable desktop experience under Linux with a few games working.
Current EOL for Windows 10 Enterprise is 14 Oct 2025 and there’s a petition going on to extend it.
Of course I do, soon to be instated as CTO at Microsoft.
Literally why are you even here? I am not interested in your bullshit, I am done with windows, and I don’t understand why the fuck you seem to feel the need to argue with me and disrespect me. Microsoft doesn’t care about any petition, linux works fine for every game I play, and you are being an aggressive douche to me in your Microsoft dick sucking fanboyism.
Go find a better hobby, you should be blocked from this sub for being such a troll.
What, you make me laugh. Someone is touchy. Now seriously and just to be clear I don’t work for Microsoft and I don’t like their bullshit nor I endorse it and I would rather never touch their solutions in my life.
However, I’m not “delusional” about Linux desktop nor I’m so out of touch with Windows’ reality to the point I say that you can’t disable the spyware like you did - because you can do it and you can also prove it with Wireshark.
Microsoft doesn’t have your best interests in mind, that’s for sure, they won’t probably care about the petition but at the end of the day history repeats itself and there will be a lot of companies and governments using Windows 10 that will essentially make them (pay) to extend its lifetime. About spyware, those same countess companies and government agencies force Microsoft to have group policy settings to disable the “spyware” otherwise they can’t use it. In short, Microsoft has all the right incentives to properly document Windows’ spyware and develop options to disable it.
