Don't really care. Once this PC can't run Windows 10 anymore, it's getting Mint.
I've recently come to realize all of the games I actually like to play, run just fine on Linux. YMMV, of course.
My next computer will be Mint and open source programs.
I know you said don't even start, but I'm curious lol.
I've used blender a lot, I've never used 3DS Max though. What would you say are the biggest issues with Blender in your scenario?
Yeah I do archviz and bim work and I've tried my hardest for years now to switch primarily to blender but even with all the plugins in the world I still can't use it as a primary replacement. And don't even get me started on some people's insistence that FOSSCADs are anywhere near feature parity for any in depth workflow with autodesk's suite.
I don't use Windows/Mac over Linux because I love them, I use them because a computer is a toolkit and I need specific tools.
TIL - Thank you for the insight!
Given the amount of progress on getting 3D games to work well under wine/proton lately, I wonder if it's possible/practical to run 3ds Max under it yet? The only test results I can find for it are ancient.
