the urge to switch to linux gets stronger everyday.

Update: I upgraded to Linux mint! Feels right at home with the UI! Although it's kind of frustrating when learning bash commands. Thank you everyone for the encouragement!

Aw man, I'm fairly new (4 months or so using ubuntu server, and about 2 with fedora on my main computer), and even tho I know this stuff, I wish I had a guy guiding me like this my first days, good luck to you with this channel

I'm not new to Linux but stuck around just because you went command line and did a good job of explaining what you were doing. It's great that you dont *need* to use the command line for most things with a good destop distro but it's always good to be comfortable with the cli for when you do need to use it. Keep up the good work!

It never was stealing. The only difference is:
If they don't sell it to you anyways it can't even be a lost sale. I am still fine with buying thing that's why I use GoG.
But not fine with "paying for limited use until they terminate that ability".

I've been searching a video like this one. I switched to Linux today and after seeing my games not working I was planning to change back to windows. You are a real life saver!

[Micha-Hil]

Just found your channel, it's absolutely amazing. Hope you grow big!

[NoCommentaryGameplay_ID]

Entertaining and educating... Love the way you teaching your audience like this specially for Linux Noob like me...

People when they can play every game they want except those 2 online games they barely play : UNUSABLE
Also yeah, use the terminal, it's great, it's not just "nerd stuff", it's a way to do things more efficiently, you can install as many things as you want at the same time with it, without having to open anything else, no installer to look up for on internet, no bloatware installed if you forget to uncheck a box!
You don't HAVE to use it, but you'll gain a lot by learning to :)
I'm glad about all the huge new wave of Linux tutorials since that copilot recall announcement, it's gonna make things easier for people moving from Windows to Linux, thank you

[Coolest_Name]

yeah im switching to linux and using this channel as a guide when i get home from work

[Munto-Z]

I love your style. Can't wait for you to cover more topics!

[DarteeFilms]

Brodie have not seen a more digestible term review than your sudo description, lots of new users and/or fence sitters would take plunge if they were more confident on term you should seriously seriously make term guide communicating exactly like your language used here big dog would be tremendous work, maybe explaining gamepad integration would be good additional video too? Lot of friends over time after my evangelizing and forced instal of Lin on their pc and they don’t know how or if their gamepad will work very intimidating to most even tho mostly plug and play if wired, great videos keep up the good work and spreading the good word Brodie namaste

8:11 this is actually an inefficient way of doing things, what you actually wanna do is go into Steam Settings - > Compatibility -> Click "Enable Steam Play for all other titles", and it just automatically does this for every game in your library.

I just want to say thanks for explaining the terminal. Most videos I've seen just show the command instead of explaining it.

The law doesn't consider piracy as stealing either, the crime is copyright infringement.

[WDPauzed]

I don't have Linux nor do I plan to get Linux. But I'm gonna sit back, have a snack and watch this man get to work

[AMurderOfLobs]

4:30 Almost correct. It's not that you already put your password in that terminal, it's specifically that you RECENTLY put your sudo password in that terminal. The period of time that you're in the no-password zone is a configurable setting...somewhere. I think it's 5 minutes by default, don't quote me on that. But my point is, you may have to put your password in the same terminal multiple times, provided there is a good deal of time in between each use of sudo.

[sebtroop]

Hey your channel looks nice!
Straight to the point, I did understand everything but I do see the posibility of some people getting confused if you are not specific enough with some things.
Anyway, great video and I'm subbing cuz I really like to learn linux with an actual person showing the desktop and the commands in real time.

[richardbaker]

This is the type of Linux videos we need to see!!

[BredBanana]

I don't personally need this at all, but it's always nice to see videos like this. Appreciate your work! :D
Also glad you're explaining every little step. I've seen beginner videos just skip over what sudo does, etc.
