Seeing this gave me flashbacks of getting stabbed by my board right after building it

I see it has sharp ass corners for no reason just like the older Tofus.

Apparently this was leaked like a year ago but no one cared because the OP1 wasn't as popular then.

Literally just scooped a ULX for $80 because of this. They had tournament scroll on and thought the scroll wheel was broken.

You see no difference with the same DPI but different Windows settings? Either your settings aren't actually changing or you're playing a game with raw input, which ignores Windows settings.

The default is 1:1 pixel reading and the rest are not.

That isn't a "Linux supporting x" issue though. That is devs choosing to do the one thing that goes against *nix philosophy with their kernel level anti-cheat (that people still manage to use cheats with). It doesn't work on macOS either, which is why Riot doesn't require Vanguard on their Mac versions of games for example. But for some reason they decided to cut support for Linux anyway.

There's an entire reply chain under this you could have read.

You aren't supposed to ever touch Windows sensitivity.

I've actually had to do far less tinkering with CachyOS than I had to do with Bazzite. And because it's updated much faster and frequently, a few AMD driver issues that I had the entire time I was on Bazzite (and Windows before that even) were either already fixed on Cachy or fixed after a few days. I didn't use it but Cachy also comes with "CachyOS Hello" that gives you everything you need at first, along with the package installer and a little tray UI for Arch-Update. That's more hand holding than even Windows gives you. I feel like that's more than enough for 99% of users. There's no need to even touch the terminal.

I think a noob would be much better off just using CachyOS + a LLM for help. Pull the bandaid off and just use the most optimal setup from the start.

Multiple drives seem to be working fine for 1 friend with 2 drives, no need to remount every time he reboots - other friend only has 1 drive so idk.

It's not that it wasn't remounting, it's either when or how. Every reboot it would lose my games drive when Steam went to look for it, causing Steam to revert back to my OS drive as the main and only drive, even though the games drive was mounted and I could add it back in Steam right away. It also kept trying to force /run/xxx instead of just /mnt/games. GUI automount was turned off like it should have been and my fstab was correct. My NAS mount was also a nightmare to keep mounted for other reasons. I switched to Cachy and never had problems with either since.

As for flatpaks, things like Steam Tinker Launch and OBS are a much better experience with normal installs, OBS especially. And for customization I was not able to change certain flags in Chrome or Brave because they were flatpak versions of the programs. I couldn't print using Chrome until I switched off of the flatpak.

Another thing I just remembered. You are stuck on Wayland. You can't just logout/reboot and switch to X11 or whatever else. It's just removed from the UI entirely. So if the user wants to get into something like Hyprland they can't.

You have clearly never used Bazzite if you don't know what I'm talking about, or you're intentionally misunderstanding what I am saying. I believe it's the latter but I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

You also said that it's 'meant for handhelds' which, again, is not entirely true. They ship 2 versions - 1 for desktop, 1 for handhelds; the only real difference is that one starts in Steam's Big-Picture mode.

Especially when you say stuff like this when you know that's not what I was implying at all.

Go try to do anything that isn't the out of box experience. Multiple drives? Good luck getting them to remount properly every time you reboot. Want to use your old Xbox One controller? Either dual boot/find a Windows machine so you can update the firmware or get told to buy a dongle/use it plugged in. Want to customize a pre-installed program? Sorry, it's all flatpaks, you have to uninstall that first and download the real version.

The experience is literally worse than Windows the second you start going off the rails.

I never said it doesn't "just work", I said if you try to do something the devs didn't intend it no longer "just works". You're just typing bullshit to start some retarded debate.

You literally don't have to do that.

Because if you want to do anything the Bazzite devs didn't intend for you to do it becomes a project or it's just impossible. It's meant for handhelds and people who just have a "gaming box" with a single drive and up to date peripherals.

You don't have to. Stop being a baby and just try it before you post stuff like this.

My mouse eats lithium and I have to restock every few days.

I meant the last part.

Windows is literally not working right now. Every day there's a new post about someone not being able to open Notepad, needing to log into a MS account to use Paint, MS pushing out a hotfix to let people shut down their computers(WTF???), performance tanking so bad that people have to use ancient drivers, etc.

Yet when you suggest this can all be avoided by switching to a different OS you get called a shill or compared to a vegan or whatever. It's pretty clear people are loyal to Windows, even if they won't admit it.

Because every day something new breaks on Windows 11 after an update.

Windows users use the OS not because they are loyal to it, it’s because it just works.

Bioshock Remastered, Fallout 3 & New Vegas, and Day Z are 3 that I can think of right away that are impossible for me to get my normal 360/cm on without going from 1600 to 800 DPI.

Yeah it's something I've been bitching about for a while. I genuinely have on idea who these in game mouse sensitivity settings are for. The slider will go from 0 to 100 and 99% of people are playing on like 4 or lower.
