I'm using KDE and when I download a flatpak it automatically creates a .desktop file. I think gnome does this too if I'm not mistaken. I do have to restart or relogin for it to put the file there but that's not that bad IMO.

Well this isn't a DE thing but I would like good ray tracing and the new frame gen support for my AMD GPU.

I would say Debian, its stable and customizable.

Good to know. 👍

For some reason i still have bad mouse lag on x11 but it could be nvidia or my driver for all i know.

Librewolf is able to do that by turning sync on in the librewolf settings.

I am reading the wiki, but it is mostly discussing PulseAudio and not providing much information about PipeWire. I am unsure whether they share similar file locations or configuration processes, and I do not want to arbitrarily paste PulseAudio commands without knowing their potential effects.

I already have the game installer, I just wanted to use the install script from the app.

My headphones are not Bluetooth, and I have already disabled the EQ. Disabling the EQ has not fixed my problem; it has only made the sound slightly more bearable.

According to the Arch Linux wiki, power-saving mode for my audio card is disabled by default. I have not enabled it yet, therefore it is not currently available as an option.

How can I check that? Is there a program that I can use or a command?

From what I have seen it is every GOG game. You have to install it manually if you get it from gog-games.com or another piracy site.

It never used to do that before it just made you add the install files yourself. But yea that is probably what it is doing now.

Yes but it is a hassle.
