Thread 107179518

Been using Linux for over 20 years, and I can confidently say that it's fucking over for this shit OS.

No matter what distro I now install, the audio is completely fucked. It can't even play a YouTube video without halting, crackling, popping, speeding up/slowing down, just completely fucking shitting the bed.

It's over. I've tried every "fix" out there for this and none of them work whatsoever. Endless bullshit command line incantations from every corner of the net, and not a fucking single one of them has any effect whatsoever.

I sincerely believe that Linux has been intentionally sabotaged from the inside (embrace, extend, extinguish) in order to make it unusable in current year, all in order to herd the nigger cattle into Windows 11 or whatever cursed slop they churn out next.

Fuck this faggot OS and vile trannies who ruined it. Kill yourselves. What a disgrace you are and what a travesty this is for human freedom, you are demonic scum.

>>107179518 (OP)
Stop lying. Sounds like a Hardware issue combined with a shit browser and extension Overkill.

>another "linux is, like, omg, like- ACTUALLY over this time, trust me guys" thread
you deserve to get raped.

Oh wow, it took you that long. For me it looks like this;
1. dual boot ubuntu at the end of the year
2. is update process good? no- fuck off
3. is drivers support good? no- fuck off
4. is store comfortable to use? no- fuck off
5. do it have software? no- fuck off
6. do I need use terminal and emulation for most things? yes- fuck off

and then I remove partition and wait another year, but this time I will give up, this is retarded, they changed nothing since 2015

>>107179534
kys faggot. the audio works fine after reboot for up to an hour or two (with minor crackling), then it deeply shits the bed and can't play even 5 seconds of a youtube video without popping the speakers so loud (continuously) that i fear it will damage them.

Never in my life had this problem with Linux, ever. Suddenly Debian 13 comes out and everything goes to complete hell. That shit OS is so bad that they even forgot to include a populated apt sources list to download packages, you had to manually copy a working one from elsewhere to start installing anything (they fixed this eventually, but it just goes to show how fucking cancerous and shitty the OS has become).

>>107179551

Hell even hobbyists who code n64 emulators manage to achieve better audio stability than that.

how has it gone to shit if it's always been this bad?

>>107179518 (OP)
Don't believe me faggot? There are dozens of threads on (((reddit))) with users complaining about the exact same audio problems. Half of them find a "fix" with whatever bullshit directions they're given by clueless retards in the threads, and the other half find no solution at all.

>>107179518 (OP)
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

I'm convinced that based on the sudden spike in "Linux is [Insert pol buzzword]" or "Linux sux" threads, that Microsoft is actively panicing and spamming forums.

Assuming, for the sake of not just dismissing outright, that you are in fact a rational actor and not a Microsoft shill spreading hoplessness,

What distro have you been using where you have these issuss? And on what hardware? The YouTube issue you mentioned is something I've never encountered (on Debian, Mint, Zorin or Void anyway).

>>107179518 (OP)
I'm surprised to read this post. In my experience, hardware support is the best it's ever been in Linux. Stuff mostly just works. Sometimes there are problems but there's usually a quick fix that's a Google search or ai prompt away.

I recently bought a new laptop and installed Linux and it worked right away except for a small issue that google's ai instantly found the fix for. I'm a Linux user since 2005 and this experience would have been unimaginable back around then.

Imo the thing that's really ruining Linux is the gtk enshittification and desktop fragmentation from ideological gnome vs everyone else holy wars. Every week there's some news story about the gnome people breaking something else and gitlab discussion memes with stuckup asshole people saying stuff like "that's your misinterpretation."

Au contraire, funding is definitely not their problem, Freedesktop's embrace-extend-extinguish war chest is huge.

Meanwhile, plain ALSA continues to work as reliably as it ever has. You don't get multi stream, but given how much trouble the abominations that are most sound servers cause, that isn't so bad.

>>107192869
Is there any good reason that nobody ever implemented those quality of life features directly in alsa?

I would so love to use bare alsa again but now I'm dependent on being able to switch between my speakers and Bluetooth headphones easily, being able to screen share with audio in discord, and being able to adjust volume of individual streams. I couldn't go back to a life without it

You are clearly retarded, or just baiting. I have used Arch for only 9 years and never had audio issues, alsa works out of the box but i use pulse because my software uses pulse and nothing ever broke down. The only sabotage is rust and we must purge it. But we can't because normie toddlers like you are incompetend to do anything. This is the harm of bringing retards to linux, it is over, from the moment a first forum was open and a first help served to a normie.

I used to have similar inexplicable audio issues up until I changed the audio profile in KDE's audio gui from "Pro Audio" to "Analog Stereo Input/Output". I think there was some doc in the past that said selecting "Pro audio" would reduce audio latency and then I selected that but after several updates that option was redundant unless you actually had Pro Audio equipment and it would just break my setup instead. After I changed that everything just werkd.

>controlling muh fans
you do that in UEFI, or you just leave it as default, or you use a thinkstation P500 or a dell optiplex (as these computers have other kinds of themal designs, not needing 1 trilions case fans anyway, i guess), and not slop gayming hardware whose motherboards break in just 3 years

cracking and popping can be fixed with larger audio buffer settings. i use jack2 (qjackctl) with a 2048 buffer and it works fine. i guess you can try editing your alsa audio config.

but i agree, it's fucking retarded that you'd have to. thing is, macos and windows are speedrunning into being pieces of shit as well. might as well stay on linux where i at least feel a bit more in control of what MY computer is doing.

but lets be real, youtube has become far more of an abomination with hundreds of scripts running while trying to play you a video.

kernel 6 was a fucking mistake, damn trannies, nothing works as expected in 6 you fucking purple haired transexuals.

oh you are right I guess Linux doesn't have audio problems my bad I guess everyone is just crazy and you are the only smart person in the world my bad, can you please help me fix my audio problem? no you say?

ah I see, you are so smart you can easily fix your audio problems but have no spare braincell to lend for anyone else just because you are that smart and totally not lying

works fine on CachyOS, no wonder valve uses arch as a base when everything else is shit.

If you've been using Linux for 20 years and are still having the same issue, then the most common denominator isn't Linux, it's you.

>>107202179
use one based on arch with gui installers

>>107201615
you are supposedly using Linux for 20 years but you can't fix your audio even when pipewire exists now hahaha you're so full of shit

NTA but pipewire was 6 seperate recording devices listed here>>107202050

Yep, those being listed dozens of times with different prefixes are certainly helpful as none of them work.

I can't tell if half of /g/ is serious when they say things like this. Everything you wrote here is completely false and actually quite the opposite.
