Saving this

Yeah, it runs better in my experience. I want to say, it may be different depending on the hardware just like Windows.

I use prism launcher, it auto installs fabric, forge, etc for you.

15 years Windows -> dualboot everything -> Ubuntu -> Fedora -> Ubuntu -> opensuse -> arch -> popOS -> arch -> fedora -> arch -> -> popOS -> arch -> nixos

I’m sure there’s a ton more hopping around in the middle that I can’t remember, but this is a good summary.

I did look into it around December but saw the index wasn’t playing nice with Linux. I may look back into it, as thats all thats keeping Windows installed at this point.

I typically land 10-15 more FPS on Linux but my setup is unique (custom nix flakes), plus AMD GPU and CPU.

I also saw the same increase in performance on my wifes computer, and shes on a basic Fedora setup. She has AMD and Nvidia combo.

Sadly performance seems to be tied to environment setup. Which is a good way to lockout a good amount of gamers.

I do not run roblox, though I’m sure getting it working wouldn’t be too difficult.

All of my games run better on Linux, only reason for windows now is VR.

My main games are Star Wars Battlefront 2, Star Citizen, Minecraft and Cyberpunk

Hyprland is my favorite tilling manager for Wayland. Its really easy to customize or find dotfiles. I have some if you want them.

If you want something that just works, popos-shell gnome plugin

The world isn’t just black and white, go and read some history.

Are you saying that people who helped the underground railroad should have been jailed too? What about people who helped save lives during the holocaust?

Both admittedly extreme examples, but forcing someone to carry a child they do not want is unjust and cruel.

I meant for neofetch lol

Sometimes I feel like farming would be better than DevOps.

Whats a good alternative?

I see fdroid update (1.1.4) from 4 days ago and github (1.1.6) yesterday.

To keep it updated I recommend Obtainium ( https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium) if you don’t want to use fdroid.

I switched to Kvaesitso (https://github.com/MM2-0/Kvaesitso) and Lawnchair (https://lawnchair.app/downloads/).

Not quite the same customization, but worth it. Kvaesitso is my primary and I love it.

Use no@thankyou.com as the email anything as the password and it’ll let you setup a local account.

About 6 months since I’ve switched away from vscode. To make Helix worth it you also need to use software that compliments it.

I work in DevOps, so I don’t do a ton of programming but everything I do is via terminal. I use Kitty Terminal, ZSH with oh-my-zsh for the shell, Zellij for an emulation layer (think tiling and tab manager in kitty), nnn for in terminal file manager, and helix for editor.

I almost never leave the terminal now, except when web browsing.

I agree with this. In my opinion helix is the best code editor.

I feel the same way. I hate that Iike it and am now going to try it.

I use Qwant and find it gives me better results than Google most of the time. It claims to be private and such, so I’m happy with it.

My wife and I use the ZSA moonlander when we’re not gaming. When we game we switch to regualr 60%s. I also have a custom built split keyboard that I don’t really use.

For me, it saved my wrists. My wrist and forearms used to go numb after extended coding sessions while using a regular 60%. I no longer have that issue using a split.

I do recommend researching switches, as I found that using Gateron Red Inks, 45g actuation force, also added to relieving stress on my wrists. I lubed and filmed them too, which is overboard for most.

I also recommend trying different key layouts, I use Colemak DH, but Workman and regular Colemak are also good. They lower the finger movement needed to press the most used letters in English. Layouts can be changed on the hardware level on the Moonlander, allowing it to just work on any device.
