I recommend vesktop, it’s an open source discord client that pretty much fixed all the discord problems that I had on wayland. No need for nitro to stream high resolution, and it’s even compatible with betterdiscord themes 🤌.

Man there is a night and day difference between the comments here and on phoronix, what is their problem?

It actually recommends using nix-env -i, which is even worse because with that command it searches the whole repository instead of just getting the correct attribute on nixpkgs. It takes half a minute to run the command, it’s insane.

Nice read, thanks for the insight.

It has been a long time since I watched his video, don’t remember what his points were but check it out for yourself. Here.

Louis Rossman was very against this idea, and gotta say I side with him on this.

If you really want the latest updates and technologies, you could use openSUSE or plain Arch. I heard Manjaro intentionally delays updates and I think in a rolling release cycle that would hurt the system. No idea about the size of repos on openSUSE but the other features are already there. Also if you think you can spend some more time to learn new things(nix programming language and more) I can recommend you to try NixOS or at least install the package manager( also called nix) on your current system. It is THE distro for reproducible builds. It has a huge repo too, rivaling AUR.

I use Arch btw.

Off topic but that one answer on superuser looks a lot like it was AI generated.

Paying for the product isn’t enough for them, you are still the product.

Just create a new partition, then in your home folder or somewhere else idk, create a folder and choose that as mount point.

Well, even when using X11 I preferred manually toggling my touchpad, but usually my mouse stays plugged for more than a few days so even then it doesn’t bother me that much to just toggle it once a week maybe. Not to invalidate the problem, it’s just how my experience is with wayland currently.

Off topic but your username looks different in my inbox. It says Nate here but in my inbox is says alphapuggle. Btw I’m using eternity for lemmy might be a bug on the app.

And apex legends started randomly banning Linux users again, how hard is it to fix the game that earns them millions of dollars every year? Unbelievable.

Yeah I can’t play rainbow 6 siege since I switched to Linux but I’m staying strong. Fuck ubisoft. And fuck my friends for trying to make me go back to windoz.

Pretty much the same setup with KDE wayland, steam games and some games I play through lutris (which are mostly proton enabled) all run well on Nvidia GPU.

Sway and foot work pretty decently. Might want to check them out.

It’s essentially running a linux container on top of your own system. Which means you can use the toolkit of those distros ( for example the package manager of that system) to install apps from their repos, even gui apps. But those containers also has access to your original filesystem so be careful how you use them. Might want to watch Brodie’s video on it.

Brodie had a video on it, might want to check it out.

Googling never works for me on windows, I just get redirected to their stupid forums with generic “update your pc” shit, problem solves itself after sometime somehow and I never know what the fuck happened in between. Windows to me is a magical box that sometimes breaks and fixes itself. Wasting my time in the process.
