most linux distros are very difficult to use for windows gamers. Or better put, oobe isn't exactly user friendly, plus, not that many games available. I don't really care. Sure, I'd love to play on linux, but my gaming days are gone, and it's up to some new kids to make it happen. I don't mean through emulation stuff, but for real. Linux simply isn't as popular as windows are, and that's mostly because of it's complexion. If every distro at least had a nice gui for software installations, without all sorts of errors, they would attract more people, and than it would be a profitable market for gaming companies. Linux is still mostly looked at as: oh that geek's os...a regular plumber really wants to shoot people in call of duty, barely even knows how to install it under windows, let alone linux. The most popular distro is mint and it's precisely because of somewhat better oobe then others. First of all, no errors, 2nd it's fast, and 3rd it's easy to install whatever you want to install. You got synaptic, you got software manager, you got aptitude, you got terminal, take your pick. I wanted to install steam, and that happened a few seconds after I clicked it in software manager, albeit without asking me where I want it installed. I want to install browser I'm used to, like chrome, it's available and install's without issues in seconds. That's what you get in windows and people are used to, and that's what you should get in linux. Now I want this us goverment security baseline, and been googling for the past hour, so far found this
https://github.com/adumont/redhat-server-hardening but not sure what to do with it. And that's linux's flaw, taking an awful lot ammount of time. After I manage to get security baseline working in mint, if I do it that is, next goal is stripping the os to bare bones and removing all personal data and making my own distro out of it, which will prolly take me a month to learn how to do it properly.
