So I've just gotten a new computer, and it updated to version 1803. After it did so, I can't even play the game. It's so choppy and laggy. It was running amazingly before. I know there have been experiences with this version but has anyone found a solution? I need my sims fix dang it!

Check your device drivers, I lost one of my laptops to an Windows update, it bricked it and no matter what advice MS gave it did not work. Luckily it was an older laptop and not my newest one, I sort of lost faith in Windows.
Jesus that’s scary. How do I check my device drivers?
I’m wavy with tech but not computers, honestly
Just run DXdiag and look for driver date, did not mean to scare you but I never thought in a thousand years that would not happen to me. I do not like how MS is changing Windows.
OH MY GOSH IT WORKED THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Technically, Google OS is a form of Linux, unless you're referring to Android (which was Linux-based, with the kernel even originating with Linux--which is why there are some who consider it a "fork" of Linux or variant of it. It also has some overlap with ChromeOS). If by Google OS, you mean ChromeOS, it actually is Linux--just in a more stripped down form and some tweaking by Google (along with a heavy emphasis upon their various apps and services). It even uses the package repository for a common Linux distro (in the past, it had been Ubuntu's package repository system. In more recent years, they had been using the non-profit distro, Gentoo's repository (which used to be called Portage, but has since been renamed)).
With respect to getting this game to work on a Linux box, having not seen this video, I can't really comment on the method employed (ie if it was WINE or through VM or another form of virtualization or even emulation involved), but if it's through an emulator or utilized virtualization, the performance hit would actually be expected, given that either process involved would in themselves be eating into system resources that might otherwise go toward the game if it were run natively instead.
