Because I want a 800lb gorilla to perpetually support my gaming distro, working Nvidia drivers, have enough freedom to use mods and whatnot, documentation suitable for people who aren’t terminal-brained, and so forth. Valve is the kind of company that can tick these boxes, simply through sheer inertia.
I tried Mint back in early 2025. It wasn’t quite right for my purposes, so I wanted to wait for something friendlier. Just because I can do stuff if I put in elbow grease, doesn’t mean that I want to be an expert at fiddling with penguins.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Discord’s face identification is used to find good looking kids, and then messages ICE to arrange shipment to an island.
