For anyone wondering what the issues with sleep in windows are, the problem is that instead of using traditional S3 sleep (suspend to RAM) Microsoft has been pushing hard for “Modern Standby” where insted of only the RAM being powered the whole system is powered on and kept in a low power mode.

In theory this can provide a shorted wake time (because apparently the approx 5 seconds provided by S3 sleep isn’t good enough). The problem is that Windows will sometimes wake up to do maintenance and drain your battery.

You might be able to fix it by disabling Modern Standby (also called S0ix, Connected Standby and S2Idle)in your BIOS. Unfortunetly a lot of modern BIOSes no longer offer the option to disable it and even sometimes lack support for traditional S3 sleep.

Early Febuary 2024 if all goes well.

I guess i need to update revanced

Once ALVR becomes even remotly usable on Linux im wiping my windows partition and going full Linux (I’m already using it for everything exept VR)

Not great. Instead of open sourcing the proprietary driver they made a seperate open source one. So there are currenty two seperate official kernel drivers:

• A usable proprietary driver.

• And a horrible open source driver.

Also all userspace drivers are all still proprietary.

I used to like his content and his videos got me into linux but i feel that his newer videos have a lot more politics compared to the older ones and i very much disagree with most of his political views i don’t realy watch him anymore

And then hang on 100% for hours before finaly crashing

Some games with intrusive DRM or anticheat. Also VR is pretty bad

Great idea. Trainning an AI model on twitter totaly didn’t go terribly wrong the last time it was tried. /s

What are the advantages of Wayland?

The big one is proper support for diffrent refresh rate monitors and VRR. Also some security improvment and long term support (X11 probably has only a few years before development stops).

What are the disadvantages?

Its still a little buggy in some cases (especialy when using Nvidia hardware) but with an AMD or Intel GPU its more then usable. Some apps don’t play nice with Xwayland but its pretty rare.

How’s gaming?

I haven’t encontered any major issues with games. Some games might need launch parameters but usualy you can just google it and find the answer very quickly. Performance its exactly the same as on X (maybe even slightly better)

What would be the best way to switch?

On your desktop with KDE you can just select “KDE (Wayland)” in your display manager and KDE should just run like normal but with Wayland. On you laptop you’d need to switch to a diffrent WM since i3 dosen’t support Wayland. Your best bet would probably be Sway since its compatible with i3 configurations.

Why have you made the switch?

I wanted to check out how well Wayland works and found that it works fine for me, and so i decided to move. Also X was giving me issues with screen tearing and multiple monitors.

The only breakages i have encouterted were caused by nvidia (and there were a lot of those). If we exclude nvidia issues then i have had a very problem free expirience.

Looks like seank got a new job at motorola

To tag a community you have to do !community_name@example.com (you have to specify the instance the community is on)

If you need Adobe products i would recomend staying on windows. Unfortunetly geting anything Abobe to work is extremly hard, so unless you want to spend hours getting photoshop just for it to break on the next update then its probably not a good idea to switch. The other stuff you listed shoud work fine.
