On Plasma 6.1/KWin on Wayland, with newest 555.52.04 drivers, it’s literally been flawless for me

Define bad.

If you can run native in wayland, run in native wayland. Your performance will be better, and if you need scaling, scaling is considerably better too

Depends on your distribution. Arch packages some electron apps in a way, where they can accept their own flags through a dedicated file. For others, it’s just a plain electron-flags.conf in your ~/.config

I would recommend visiting either the arch wiki, or tour distributions equivalent for details

Keep in mind that this does not apply to CEF apps, as that’s an entirely different framework

I’ll be honest with y’all. If your decision to not buy something from a hardware manufacturer is based on that they’ve modified their optional Ubuntu install, this hardware wasn’t for you to begin with

No surprise it feels a lot snappier. You only run the shit you have purposefully installed, and not endless layers of telemetry, candy crush silent installs, game bars that somehow make the performance worse, and mandatory online service accounts

I’ll reserve my judgement until I experience the new content, but it felt like a player-made machinima at best. I’m incredibly excited about the new raid

If anything, they’ve taken features away from people lately. The quality is still shit. Lossless is still nowhere to be seen. Free users are losing options too. Yet they’re making record profits, and jacking up the price

I would recommend staying away from Manjaro regardless of your distribution preferences, for a whole range of reasons, some of which are documented here.

When it comes to Nvidia, don’t let people make it look like it’s some kind of an adventure quest with no map markers. Practically any reasonably maintained popular distribution will either have everything installed already, or will give you an Nvidia option during installation. There are still some long-standing issues, but the vast majority of them are either actively being worked on, or just got upstreamed, and it’s up to your distribution to deliver the update.

If you like Debian/Ubuntu based choices, Pop is not my preference, but it is a good distribution. Otherwise, Endeavour has been absolutely excellent. Fedora isn’t necessarily a bad option, but their package management policies will make setting up gaming workflows a pain. Nobara comes with all of that pre-configured, but is otherwise just regular Fedora

If i wasn’t paying for a family play on Spotify, I would have resorted to music piracy at this point. The quality is still garbage, the service is getting worse, but the prices are only going up every half a year

That’s quite huge. Now to see if it works as intended

Why are we monetizing a kernel flag?

Lobbying, and publicly traded companies, were both a colossal fucking mistake. We elect these people to be the voice for us, but they only act in their own interest, while a ton of money is flowing directly into their “donations” pocket

A couple years ago they approved a curated script, that’s now bundled with the iso. If you already know your install flow, this won’t really add anything to your experience. I’d still recommend the official way

I’ve switched to kde-unstable as soon as it was updated, and am quite happy to say, it’s been really damn solid. The only issue I’ve experienced was that Firefox somehow does not support explicit sync, and crashes the parent process of the broken tab near instantly

I wasn’t a fan of it, personally. I’ve only tried it once, because the regular install takes me less than 10 minutes start to full completion, but didn’t really like some of the opinionated choices for the setup here and there. Still appreciate that it’s there though

It’s not even really about how advanced you are. Using something more trustworthy, and something you can depend on, is always better. For arch(-based) distributions, i would always recommend Endeavour. Plain Arch will just do it too, if you can follow instructions as listed

I was once checking out Garuda, because the name popped up a handful of times. Outside of the absolutely repulsive front page, the moment i saw unmarked and unexplained “fun scripts” in the installer, i unplugged the installer

Back in like 2006, I’ve made an account for myself. A bot added me, asked how big my dick is, and then I’ve never used it again

If anything, it should be optional for personal use, and mandatory for enterprise. Not that they would come to this conclusion either way, granted that half of the workforce is busy putting ads into the start menu, and the other half are probably not doing any work whatsoever

Even outside of this obviously either clueless or AI-fabricated post, I’m still not convinced that it’ll be OSS, in the way that we expect it to be. The phrasing used in announcement leads me to believing that they’ll use some license, that allows them draconian control over the source. It’ll be “open” as in being able to see it, but not really fork, or meaningfully contribute.
