    It ought to tell them to “upgrade to a more recent OS” instead of being Windows-centric.

      Steam

      Windows Centric

      You do realize what platform/company we’re talking about, right?

        I think that’s exactly their point. Why would Valve tell users to “upgrade” to a more recent version of Windows? Tell them to upgrade to Linux

        Yes, we’re talking about Valve, which has a vested interest in pushing gamers towards Linux in order to protect itself from anti-competitive behavior by Microsoft.

    I switched to mint because ms won’t even let me upgrade to 11 if I wanted to. Other than some initial hurdles installing it, and losing some hd space because I kept windows on the other partition, it’s been fine. Proton and Wine are pretty low maintenance

    I mean… Windows 10 came out -what?- 9 years ago at this point. Gee, I’m getting old

      I’ve been waiting since the first Steam Machines in 2011 to get steamOs. Best I can do is big picture mode.
