    That sounds cool. I have not had time to mess with my server… I decided to distro hope. openSuse is promising and I like it, but installing Nvidia drivers is kicking my ass for some reason and there seems to be an issue of not being able to wake up after sleep, so I am going to try very hard to fix those before I give up and distrohop again.

    Anyways, I actually did follow the folder guides for youtube videos the same as shows. It really helps the metadata programs find the info, it seems.

    I think it also depends on the channel. Like VSauce and The Repair Shop has everything filled out, but smaller niche channels like Vagrant Holiday do nothing.

      For what it’s worth I recommend linux mint. There is a gui for graphics driver installs. You click the yes please button and you’re done 😊

        You know what, I will look at it again. I seem to have a problems every time I move away from Debian, and I have been rocking MX Linux for awhile, and as great as it is, it cannot support everything that has moved on to SystemD. Also, as comfortable as I am with XFCE, I don’t really like it… BUT I hate KDE so anything else is better.

        Yeah, if I can’t work out my problems with openSuse, I probably won’t have better luck with Fedora. So, back to Debian!

          I spent an entire weekend troubleshooting nvidia drivers on raw debian, specifically mint has really good driver support.

            Hey, guess what you just convinced my to do? I am going to download Linux Mint and start using it!

            I used to care about having the latest packages, having the DE look good, make it my own way, whatever.

            I just want to use the hardware I paid for, damn it!

            You are special and I love you.

            You were not exaggerating, Linux Mint is MAGIC!. Everything about this distro is so clean and well put together. Cinnamon is everything I wanted out of XFCE.

            I cannot believe I slept on this because I dismissed anything associated with Ubuntu. I have been so stupid. I have wasted so much time, and haven’t even really gamed on my new computer.

            I finally feel like I can commit to learning Blender and get back to Godot.

            Thank you.
