Or maybe I just run the mainline kernel in the cases I need it.

Yep, been gaming on Ubuntu for decades. Zero issue. Occasionally have to do a thing, but it’s Linux, so you know; everything is always do able.
Only thing that matters is that you realize, none of it’s permanent. Getting your feet wet for a few weeks working from a live USB is okay too. Go as fast or as slow as you want. People get stuck on “The Paradox of Choice”.
I only recommend what I’m willing to support. Can’t recommend distros I would never use.

2·4 days agoNice bro.
Pretty cool. I tried it out in a VM. I tried setting the hypland layout to master and orientation to center or right, but for some reason the orientation field isn’t being updated. new_status and mfact update fine. If I can figure it out, I’ll probably switch.

Are they waiting for Slackware 5.0 to release finally?

255·20 days agoYep, you learn how to get things done. If your goal is to use something that’s strictly for Windows, then probably you should be using Windows. Same as MacOS, same as Linux, and same as any other OS out there. Same things could be said for touch screen vs. MnK vs. controller.

91·20 days agoProbably just the recent converts that are still 1 foot in and 1 foot out. I don’t keep a Windows VM. If something ever came up over the years, I have to decide if it’s worth setting up a VM. I think even 3 years back, I was able to update my PS5 controller loading up the update tool in WINE (Bottles). Didn’t even need a Windows VM then.

1·22 days agoThat’s how you know you are not the normal user. The distro maintainers have their target audiences for a reason. People distro hop until they land on the distro that sets up their preferred DE the way they like or nearest to what they like.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Linux is the reason Windows apps are bloated these daysEnglish
2·24 days agoYeah, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. There is a shitload of frontend developers that specialize in web standards and technologies. Electron was developed to take advantage of that deep pool of frontend developers. The side affect, is that other OSes can just support electron and they get the developers and the applications for free. Which has been a major boon for Linux users and those looking to escape Microsoft’s vendor lockin strategy. Today might be different, but in the past, nobody was intending to support Linux by creating electron apps. If they cared so much or it was so important, they would have been using Qt and GTK prior to Electron.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Valve compatibility layer for running Android games on Linux gets official name in Steam documentationEnglish
2·1 month agoAgreed. I run UBTouch on my phone. Waydroid is cool and all, but that’s not Valves market. I’m sure they would love to be the store behind every mobile game sale of flappy bird. But that would be one hell of a side quest to try and take over Mobile game sales.

Same way I felt when I got my Sound Blaster Live sound card working under Linux back in the day. Had LICQ running, with the volume all the way up on the speaker just in case I got sound. I woke the whole house when a message came in. “Message for you sir!” Good memories.
