PewDiePie, one of the most popular YouTubers with some 110M sꦇubscribers, has released a video detailing his switc⛦h from Windows to Linux.

PewDiePie gained fame as a gaming YouTuber, even having the most popular channel for some time. Al꧑though the focus of his videos has largely shifted to more personal videos, as well as commentary on curren▨t trends, he remains an one of the most popular YouTubers.

In his latest video, at the time of writing, PewDiePie detailed his switch to Linux—both Linux Mint and Arch—driven largely by the deteriorating Windows experience. PewDiePie specifically calls out Microsoft continually treating the user as if they don’t know what they want, trying to push its own services, forcing users to confirm multiple times to make basic preference changes, and the inundating users with ads in an operating system they paid for.

PewDiePie has a very balanced take on his switch to Linux, breakꦜing down the pros and cons.

In the pro category, he highlights the freedom that comes with Linux and feeling like he is in control of his computer, rather than being at the mercy of a company that’s simply use the OS as a vehicle to sell you more services. He also highlights how far Linux gaming has come, thanks to Valve’s Steam platform, as well as the ability to customize Linux to truly make it your own.

In the cons category, PewDiePie points out that users make the switch may have to give up some things, such as Adobe products. Even that sacrifice, however, comes with the benefit of switching to free alternatives that don’t lock users into a monthly subscription.

PewDiePie highlights the many places Linux is used outside of theℱ deskt🌠op, such as NASA and SpaceX, before recommending that users give Linux a try.

The entire video is an excellent introduction to Linux, especially coming from a user who is not a typical computer geek, or operatinꦦg system enthusiast.
