[English translation below] I denna video går Roger igenom hur väl spel fungerar på Linux med hjälp av Garuda (KDE Plasma) Dr460nized Gaming Edition. Tidsmarkörer: 00:00 Start 00:12 Intro 01:30 För...
The beauty of Linux is its wonderful ability to be customized. Maybe Xanmod is a good kernel for you if you play games?
Maybe if you use a desktop environment with Wayland, you’ll have less issues with screen sharing in Discord.
It’s always nice to hear what other people’s experiences are. Depending on the distro, updating drivers can be a bit trickier than noobs might expect since “Driver manager” might not actually have the newest drivers, etc.
Telling people to RTFM is all well and good, but why not share the stuff you’ve learned with others who are just getting started?
The normal just switched from win guy who looks up youtube videos about how to game on linux knows and cares less about linux than my guinea pig (tho, I think she knows more about linux than me after listening to me try to install gentoo for a week straight, so idk). Telling them to use x kernel, y DE with z Kernel Flags with a changed vim.conf just makes it look like its a hassle to use Linux. If someone wants to learn about linux and go into such details, they will
Not look up a frickin youtube video since they are the worst place to learn about anything which changes every month or so
Look up something more akin to „Which linux kernel is best for gaming“
So by making it look like these are basic steps in order to get a game running is counterproductive if only meant well
Its like if you would ask me how to drive a car, and I would go on a 2 hour tangent about synchronising the time the spark plugs fire and replacing the carburator for a more costum design so it sucks out the condensation out of the pipes after shutting off, therefore making corrosion less likely.
Even tho I could have just as well told you to fill up the gas tank at a station and turn the keys, which would have brought me sufficient results anyway
The Linux community had never once been able to grasp the concept of someone using Linux and not giving a single flying fuck about Linux.
People are here cause they hate windows, not cause they like Linux. Describes a LOT of gamers that are coming over right now.
Yet people keep pointing them at distros that ARNT something like cachy.
Valve, targets a arch based kde distro. THAT is what you should be giving gamers. That’s going to have the least issues, the best support, is what most gaming communities make their tools, tutorials and guides around.
Do not give them gnome, stop suggesting mint or pop os. Great distros, but for people that want to use Linux. Not gamers wanting to game.
Gaming basically mandates that you are on very up to date systems if you want properly supported anything. It’s like that in windows it’s no different on Linux. You can be on a out of date system and have things works but it only creates more and more possible problems.
The fact I see people in this thread talking about proton 9 beta when 10 is out SCREAMS that the problem is almost entirely because they are on a distro that’s using a older kernel and out of date packages.
That’s a bit reductive, don’t you think?

This
You dont expect every car owner to know everything about it, so dont place the same standard for Linux
Seither that, or gatekeep Linux The right way
Aye, alright fair enough.
I won’t argue with you.
