Installed it, tried it… So far it does not do what I need the way I need it and now I’m looking for a way to accomplish it (altough I doubt it’s possible), made a post about it but got no answers so I guess I have to stick to what works.
Meme answer: maybe you shouldn’t have chosen Haiku OS.
Serious answer: I always advocate for everyone to use the OS that fits their use case.
What I want and need from an OS, Windows simply doesn’t offer but Linux does. So that’s what I use.
I’d never tell anyone that Linux is perfect, or that you should use it, or something like that. I’m just glad it exists because I need it, it’s so much better for my use case I can hardly believe it’s free, and it gets better every year.
If it weren’t for that specific scenario I think I could move over to Linux, but it’s just so far behind in terms of gaming and streaming that it’s not easy to ditch Windows yet… specially because if something doesn’t work there’s either no way to do it or a 1000 things to try, who knows how many are outdated, deprecated or don’t work that way on the distro I’m using (also the enshittification of the search engines doesn’t help).
Also my problem seems to be a problem with something not supported in linux yet, so testing other distros would be wasting my time.
Yeah I tough about it, but I’m going slow, I don’t want to be that asshole who crossposts the same shit to every community inside every instance in a single day and manages to flood the feed with the same post because they don’t know how federation works.
I don’t want to go around testing OS, it’s already a chore having to set up the first time just to do it over and over.
Still sticking to Windows until I find another solution.
Menu key serves a purpose when you need to access a context menu without a mouse to right click with.
Granted, I’ve needed that maybe a grand total of three times over the course of nearly three decades of computer use. But I don’t know how you access that menu otherwise. It’s a nice bit of redundancy from a company that doesn’t often think of that.
If only there was another OS you could use instead!

OK
I recommend cross-posting that support post to a general Linux support community. That doesn’t sound to me like it’s specific to Fedora.
The cross-section of Lemmy users who use OBS and also specifically Fedora, that just won’t be incredibly huge…

I know Nobara Project was aimed at gamers/streamers, maybe check that out?

If only that other OS had keyboards tailored for it…
We could have, I don’t know, Compose, Super, Meta, instead of things like Menu that serves no purpose whatsoever.

My Menu key just lost it’s virginity because of this comment.
My scroll-lock key lost its virginity a few days ago, when I realized, I could use it for the Compose-key.

I remapped it for Yakuake, pretty handy for plasma.
