My personal experience with KDE has been utterly negative, and I’ve been trying it at times since version 2. Most recently, I had pretty bad time with KDE’s multimonitor capabilities.

Gnome works fine when its primary task is to handle monitors and start Steam :)

I’ve had varying luck with the standard distros, but when I found Nobara, somehow all my gaming problems went away. And now everything just works, actually better than on Windows. I don’t have the time or energy to find out what they’re doing better for my particular case, but apparently something.

(avoid KDE)

I hope they’ll do Deck 2 some day. My current laptop is still so much stronger than the current Deck that there’s no point of going there even though I’m quite interested.

I don’t know… I’m over 40 and bump into songs from the 70s, 80s and 90s I don’t think I’ve ever heard before. And then I find out that they were hits at the time. Just a month ago I listened to the album Dreamboat Annie by Heart for the first time. And I haven’t really listened to The Who either.

There’s just too much out there.

edit After an hour of listening through this activity list, it gave me the hauntingly beautiful metal song https://music.apple.com/fi/album/a-war-of-our-own/848156513?i=848156526 from 2014. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this band before.

(At least Nobara) Linux works better at gaming than Windows these days. Once the word spreads, people will flock.

Thanks, I’ll consider it. This is a gaming laptop, so I’m a bit more reluctant to mess around in there.

That would be one theory I guess, at least if I wasn’t getting the same FPS on both sides.

I’m currently unable to use Windows as a gaming OS because it keeps hard rebooting probably due to overheating. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 are very unstable.

Nobara Linux meanwhile plays everything perfectly.

Linux has been made by a comrade from Soviet Finland, though, so it should be pure.

Proof:

Then again, they were the first ones to make “python” be python 3.
