Maybe we do need a better dbus but its not going to be done by vaxry. We could probably use binder the android dbus.

Its hard to break into peoples minds with no advertising budget.We can’t tell people on reddit about Lemmy because reddit bans your account.

Lemmy got a ton of traffic after the api black out and it did an incredible Job at retaining a lot of those users. There were 200k active users and Lemmy was much more unstable at the time. Active users did fall off as expected but 50k stayed for 2 years. Thats great in my opinion. If we had another migration wave I reckon the retention would be even higher.

For someone to switch from reddit to Lemmy three things need to happen

1. They need to know it exists

2. They need to dislike reddit or centralised corporate controlled social media on an ideological level.

3. They need something disruptive to happen. Either a ban or a change they dont like.

If you want to squeeze every drop of preformance out of your hardware but you dont want to know or learn about what any of the tweaks and you are ok with system instability.

SteamOS builds off arch pretty rarely so unless they plan on ddosing for 6 months this doesnt impact steamOS at all.

Its probably someone who got banned from the community trying to make a statement.

this won’t be interesting for longtime users

You couldn’t be more wrong. Longtime users love hearing peoples experience switching over. Its been a long time since I was a linux noob but i want to be aware of the problems they may be facing so I can help out or steer them to another way of doing it.

Also sometimes its funny because its just a different variant of the same issues, nvidia drivers, audio, distro randomly breaks in the install phase.

KDE is a awesome desktop. Its really powerful and can be bent to liking with window rules and hotkeys.

Yea people tend to uncritically repeat things they hear.

Dual booting is fine. Microsoft destroying bootloaders is mostly a meme off a few bugs. Any distro that ships an up to date kernel and drivers is good. Fedora/Ubuntu. Bazzite is kinda weird for gamers because it just makes every problem harder to solve. If you never tinker then its fine but Bazzite feels more restrictive than windows without knowing how it works.

Because i already have squad and the games are 1hr which is manageable. I cannot manage 7hr arms games

How can they do a 2025 review when its still 2025? These reviews are getting earlier and earlier. Its becoming like the 2k games where you are buying 2k26 in the middle of 2025.

I’m one bad life event away from buying arma reforger. Please God be good to me next year. I cannot handle an arma addiction right now.

Curiosity and fate. I was perfectly happy on windows but I was listening to the WAN show and they were talking about their 30day linux channel. About 2 weeks before the first ep my windows install completely bricked itself after an update and I couldnt recover the key so I was forced to either pay for windows again or stay on the free version. I ended up installing linux mint and it was an awful experience. Out of the box mint is pretty crap hardware compat wise. I tried a few other distros before settling on Manjaro where everything worked out of the box and from there i started learning linux.

I plan to keep moving distro’s every few years just to see different ways of learning linux. Im currently on Nobara and fedora on my laptop. I think its probably the best linux distro out there(fedora). I’ve tried gentoo but I did not get it working to the same standard as nobara. I do plan to try gentoo again because I liked being able to pick all the stuff on my system and compiling it. I didnt like selecting all the useflags tho.

I really hate windows but I dont find teams to be that bad. Outlook at all the 365 admin tools are far far worse. Luckily we’re moving away towards google and atlassian.

Flatpak is unironically dead. It provides next to no security benefits. Single store with no verification of updates. Worse compatibility with other system apps. Its only positive is that it gives developers a single linux platform to target but it even does a bad job at that since the developer experience is subpar compared to snap and app image.

Apart from having a good name its kinda bad at everything.

Its not worth switching GPU for this. 3070 should be plenty capable of running witcher3. Ive got a friend running a 3060 and she plays all kinds of games with very few driver issues.

We should troubleshoot your issue first and see if a new GPU is required.

Thank you to all the linux gooners bumping these numbers up

How big is your power supply? That sounds like its running out of power and shutdown when the GPU and could spin up

I’d just delete the file and move on. Get ublock origin for the next time you need to torrent stuff. Its unlikely anyone is burning exploits on random piracy sites. 0 click exploits are like gold.

I follow linux news I like hearing about new features and have them come to my system quickly. I’d hate to have to wait years for anything new. I’m not worried about stability, i run nothing critical and if I have an issue I’ll just fix it.

This is amazing news. Hopefully they’re getting enough donations to cover this.

I like the Gordon alyx dunk intro. It goes so hard

Breaking 30-40% of your things? Are you sure those are Wayland issues?
