    So, here's the issues she ran into in no particular order:

    - Heavy tearing in games (resolved by setting "Force Composition Pipeline" in NVIDIA settings)
    - Discord screen sharing doesn't support audio on Linux (worked around by using Vesktop)
    - Slightly degraded performance in VRChat desktop mode
    - Initial confusions about the directory structure

    That's about it.

    I'm so happy. When I introduced my wife to Linux Mint a couple weeks ago I thought she might take a good look at it and then keep using Windows. Which would've been fine.

    But to my surprise, she's actually giving it a fair change to use it daily! I created a little penguin icon on her Windows desktop labelled "Reboot to Linux", using a handy tool called Bootnext¹. This way, she doesn't have to mess with boot managers.

    There has been surprinsingly little issues. If you're curios, I will list them briefly in the next post.
