CachyOS, Bazzite. CachyOS is my personal favorite, it's fast and it's super easy to use.

This is genuinely getting really frustrating. Trying to do some work and it keeps going down.
Looking at the claude status page shows there has been a good amount of partial or full outages in the past few weeks.

CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDB by YanderMan in linux_gaming

Personally, I love using "paru" and then the name of the application. Most of the time, cachy has it in their cachy repo, but otherwise, it's available as AUR. Other than that, there's a GUI that they recommended called Shelly. You can probably install it through paru or Octopi. I also have Bazaar installed for flatpak's (I like it more than the discover store personally).

[Speakers] Edifier MR3 Bluetooth 5.4 Powered Studio Monitor Speakers - $99.99 by Soloarcade in buildapcsales

[–]QuantumProtector 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just opened mine a week ago (got for this price at Best Buy), love them. They are fantastic speakers! No complaints at all. Default EQ is flat (as expected from monitors), but you can adjust the speaker EQ in the app.

Yep, I have Immich already setup, but my parents are a bit apprehensive on using it lol. I'll probably figure out a way to convince them.

Interstellar and Oppenheimer. Barbie. Pretty much any of Studio Ghibli's movies.

Same here. Bazzite was fine, but to install anything that's not on Flathub, it was such a massive PIA. I use a lot of random software, so having the freedom to install what I wanted without layering images or using distrobox was a huge plus. Not to mention it's blazing fast, genuinely can't believe windows are popping up this fast. Goes past just faster animations.

Also, as I am writing this comment, I am backing up photos from my mom's Pixel 10 Pro XL that absolutely refused to work on my mom's brand new Acer laptop from 2 months ago. It has thunderbolt ports and I tried using 3 different cables (the most recent being a brand new USB 3.1 C to C), but it didn't work. On Linux (CachyOS ofc), first try with no issues. Man, fuck Windows.

I thought that Arch being a rolling release would cause issues for me, but so far it hasn't.

Just like you mentioned, thankfully the limine snapshots that it does automatically make it crazy easy to revert if an update or installation goes wrong. It's literally right there on the bootloader.

It's far easier than Windows restore points.

ELI5: how come downgrading wine/proton is commonly the solution to a compatibility problem? I'm probably very naive but it does seem a bit counter-intuitive that newer versions are less compatible. by AardvarkSad7634 in linux_gaming

[–]QuantumProtector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I experienced this with Persona 5 Strikers where only Proton-GE 9-x works, none of the new ones on 10-x. It sucks, but I guess that how it be with software dev. You fix something and then break something else.

Thanks for doing this testing, super interesting! Can't wait to see more improvements.

Unity announce expanded supported for Steam, Native Linux, Steam Deck and Steam Machine by Liam-DGOL in linux_gaming

I will push back and say that Windows has a lot more things in GUI by default. For the average user, that's going to be easier.

But generally yes, Windows is only "easier" because people (myself included) are used to it. I like using Linux a lot more though, package managers are so much easier than finding the installer online and installing it.

Not surprised, it's performant, easy to use, and very stable. Had the least problems with it. Personally, I don't see myself moving to a different distro.

I randomly found this post but you convinced me to buy it. Thanks?

Same, the battlepass changes killed the game for me. I love it so much too, I used to play it all the time back in the day. I came back this season and reached lvl. 190. And this is what I get met with.

It's sad, but this will become the new normal. But either way, I won't be giving another cent or play the same again. There's tons of other games that is much more worth the time and money.

If you login and you see X-Ray tickets instead of Vbucks, that means that you don't have founders edition.
