I’m pretty sure for most people the OS choice isn’t about avoiding to pay, Linux simply is better. I also wouldn’t switch to Windows if I got paid 200€.

1·7 months agoMy Linux system uses about 1 GB idle and yet I’m glad to have 16 GB - not because I wouldn’t mostly be fine with 8, but because it just keeps more doors open. Can run more demanding programs, more programs simultaneously, can host something in the background, …
The OS itself is more efficient than Windows, yes. But that’s not a hard task, and it’s less efficient than many Linux distros. No matter how efficient you are, 8 GB non-expandable RAM is not enough nowadays.

1·7 months agoIf they just add ray tracing to Java they can abandon it if they want, then we’ll have an awesome final version for modding. Ray tracing (and maybe some optimisation but that works well through mods) is all we need, content (like the last [many] updates) can be added so easily with mods.
