    I’ll stick with Linux. Even with the occasional “what do you mean clib2_39 isn’t installed?” nonsense it’s still better overall.

      I never have that kind of problem on Linux. I have random problems all the time on Windows, plus I have to fight a system that keeps trying to cajole or trick me into things I don’t want. These days, any mainstream Linux distro has far less friction for the user than Windows 11.

        I had that specific problem trying to run an elden ring mod (reforged) this week.

        /home/myuser/Games/er_reforged/ERRv2.0.1.1-541-2-0-1-1-1762909215/ERRv2.0.1.1/internals/modengine/bin/me3: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.39' not found (required by /home/myuser/Games/er_reforged/ERRv2.0.1.1-541-2-0-1-1-1762909215/ERRv2.0.1.1/internals/modengine/bin/me3)
        [RED]Error:[/]
        me3 failed to launch due to error code 1: Unknown
        

        That kind of thing happens on Windows sometimes, but there’s also more people finding and posting solutions.

        Of course, a regular user isn’t installing mods for games. That’s already kind of a niche activity.

        Linux is still my choice, though.
