Shame that all these companies choose win11 over SteamOS

Gaming headsets.

Kept buying whatever I could for ~60-70€ at the time, and they kept breaking within a year. Bought proper headphones for 120€ which lasted me 8 years.

99% depends on your budget too. I have a 7900XTX and it has been smooth on wayland

Seems pretty okay. I managed to get League of legends/TFT running perfectly fine (though the launcher is a bit stuttery)

CSGO I noticed runs WAY smoother on Linux. Maybe becausw it uses Vulkan which is a lot more modern than dx9. But the aim just feels.. smoother despite the same FPS?

edit: on Nobara and a AMD GPU

This very much.

The reason I switched was the forced updates that kept slowing down my computer when I needed the juice and network. Also there was a constant pressure to "upgrade" to win11.

OP, If you don’t have many major grievances with windows, it might not be worth switching. Nothing stopping you from taking a look in case you might like it. I have enjoyed my experience so far, despite some small issues.

I've been able to ban whole instances with Connect for Lemmy and hide nsfw. Made the browsing a lot more enjoyable

Going to ask here, anyone know a music player that is similar to AIMP? It has no native support, unfortunately.

Nobara on my desktop, Pop_os! on my laptop. As soon as the new COSMIC DE is ready I will switch to Pop on my desktop as well.

Great news! is there a chance this will eventually lead to screen tearing protocol getting implemented?

Same here. this is upsetting :/ Back to firefox I guess

Vampire Survivors?

Looks nice! which icons are these?

thanks!

I am also dual booting because of game compability and Virtual Reality support.

I think once wine-wayland gets fully merged we will see a clear uplift in performance, at least on wayland.

I installed it via firefox mobile as a PWA and have no issues.

on ExpressVPN many servers are blocked but if you pick a smaller country like Luxembourg it can work

Oh, makes sense. It thought Valve would already be working with some manufacurers based on this interview from November

Weird. Maybe you have removed some permissions or dosabled installing apps from unkown sources?

This is the way. I dabbled with a modmic but even that developed a cable issue after a couple of years. Now everything I have is modular and all of their cables can be just swapped out.
