This is the only one im gonna fight you. I tried for days to get my manually modded skyrim to work because mod managers are absolute dog shit once you start hitting 345+ mods & it in fact did not work. Otherwise you are right. I used manjaro for 6 months because thats what valve recommended. Got peer pressured into actual arch, had a good time before finding out the documentation for my network card had been scrubbed from the forums it was on. So after that fuck up & being unable to install it after moving back to manjar & learning a hard lesson about saving web pages snapshots of important shit I am back in win10 til I build my new pc.

Slop just werks 90 percent of the time sure. There's still plenty of issues as well even with the slopped games and for every game that performs 5 percent better there are 10 that run worse or not at all.
You may be convincing yourself you've learned a skill and are big brained for doing everything manually and the long way but in reality you're wasting more of your short time on this earth posturing to avoid what? Debloating the telemetry bs?

>>716442081

This isn't just a Linux problem, it's a modding and engine limitation problem. I imagine you didn't do any cleaning, combining, and converting to light? Once you hit 300, you really have to start optimizing if you want to go any further. You can go well over 1000 but if you don't know what you're doing, rule of thumb is to stick under 300 total, and even then that's considering you're not running 200 heavily scripted mods.

Windows 7 was nice so you don't need to be mad about having gone back to it. It sounds like you never had a legitimate reason to use Linux which is mostly for people who hate Windows, so I don't know why you ever tried it in the first place. People said it was "good"?

The next step is to have all games compiled on native linux as יהוה intended.

the only thing bad about linux is bloated game sizes from having to install shaders and proton versions.
also the fact steam doesnt self delete its own caches when you uninstall games for some reason (?)
and the interconnected nature of dependencies whenever you want to uninstall some program you dont use or need anymore.
other than that shit is pretty tight and you'd have to be actual sub 80 iq to get filtered by a beginner distro in 2025.

>if you dont know what you're doing, rule of thumb is to stick under 300 total
Here's the thing though, I did know what I was doing. I had skyrim so hyper optimized that it never crashed with my manual mod list. Upon moving to linux though it didnt work. The reason it didnt work had nothing to do with my mods, it had more to do with script extender & proton not getting along. There was a way to fix this. Installing a custom script that placed mod organizer 2 on top of my skyrim launcher in steam. The issue with this is as follows
1. Its a manual mod list
2. It had mods that MO2 would disable similar to bethesdas creation club downloader which i also disabled & removed from the game
3. False warnings about non working or updated mods
4. Made the mod list more unstable somehow despite me never having a crash without it
To which I've heard 4 is because the mods arent managed or whatever. My point is modding everything doesnt just work for some people. I've also been told the culprit is proton not handling dotnet & some other things several mods required properly. I'm also not saying this bothered me. I just uninstalled it & moved on with my life.

What do you mean? When you uninstall a program, packages that aren't used anymore can be deleted with "sudo apt autoremove". It's not hard. It also doesn't remove dependencies that are still needed by other things. I don't see the problem unless your shit's all fucked up (not my problem).

>>716449057
>I found a random indie game to uninstall just to test this, and it turns out you're wrong. Either that or your shit's all fucked up (not my problem)
wether its caches or something else, i had 30GB of folders in my steam directory all named after games id uninstalled, i deleted them with no issue leading me to believe they are cache's you have to delete just like on the steam deck.
>It also doesn't remove dependencies that are still needed by other things.
thats exactly my problem.
i will never use shit like libreoffice yet it is permanently stuck on my pc because its a dependency for other programs.

LOOOL do troonix users REALLY?

Actual IT here
Linux is amazing for devices with narrow functions. We use it at work for OSs for our robotics and I'm working on getting a server rack together that has few VMs running Red Hat. Absolutely no complaints, runs like a dream. Braindead simple to use once you know your stuff.
For a regular workhorse device it's absolute hammered dogshit. Especially if you need airgapped machines that can't just pull whatever package you want whenever. Linux for regular daily use is a meme pushed by contrarians.

Linux is great for personal desktop use and I game on it 100% of the time and never boot back into Windows 10 basically ever.

Most people with friends aren't grinding competitive garbage, lmfao. They're playing co-op games together, of which there are thousands and they all work on whatever platform you choose.

Competitive AAA games are for the lower 1/3 of the bell curve for male IQ, so it makes sense why these exact people are the ones seething about the idea of having to learn something new. These are the same people who think changing to a new browser is a monumentous task. Genuine fucking morons. Dolts. Dullards.

Not having the ability to use the software you want or need, there is more than just this list of games fyi, does make linux inferior. Among a plethora of other reasons. linux is, after all, a server os with low quality buggy guis grafted onto it to make it "usable" as a desktop machine.

The amount of pussy this man gets is astronomical

I don't use Linux because it works perfectly, but because it works fine for most things, and if something is not working I am given the control to change and fix things. Having grown up with PCs in the early 2000s, Windows just doesn't feel personal anymore. It feels like you are given slop by an Indian and told not to complain because all your software works (not true), while you dare not notice or complain about the unneccessary bloat/spyware, which you are subjegating yourself to.
Yes Windows is easier, but if you are white, you should get the hang of Linux easily. It's actually wild how just using your PC becomes a rewarding experience.
Remember it's supposed to be your personal computer.

Patch the game with the proton prefix of the game title if it's an .exe to be ran.

Bottom line: it works on Mint and you're coping.

>>716480446
mint is most definitely not a seperate project, it's still a fork and relies heavily on gnome. they're already porting adwaita so that they can use gnome applications on their system. they're also still using mutter.
mint is a small project, they don't have the scope or the manpower of modern gnome to enact large changes.

>>716480745
Okay I'm sure drag-and-drop from file-roller to nemo will break in exactly two weeks

You don't need to "switch" to Linux. If there are things you want to do on Linux then just dual boot and keep Windows for your Adobe Photoshart or whatever it is. If a simple dual-boot setup sounds like too much of a hassle, then you don't actually want Linux enough to have ever had any chance of being happy on it. Within a week you would have been crying about some little inconvenience like not having all the exact same keyboard shortcuts as Windows by default.

Doesn't even exist on ProtonDB anymore. There's only thumbs-up/thumbs-down (and then a second thumbs-up/thumbs-down for after tinkering where applicable), and then a shitty algorithm uses that data to generate a worthless platinum/gold/silver/bronze rating that should be ignored.
To be honest, ProtonDB should just remove ratings, and it should be a site for people who can actually read instead of needing everything color-coded.

I couldn't get it to work with my WMR headset but could just be a skill issue on my part.

>>716485396
Not to mention the report not actually saying "platinum". Or any explicit rating.
If a report mentions any amount of tinkering then technically it corresponds to a "gold" rating AT BEST anyway, and it's not the ProtonDB user's fault that the rolled-up total rating is platinum despite his report. Meanwhile the thumbs-up on the individual report is based on a subjective question in the reporting questionnaire. So no one lied except for the web site itself.

I also grabbed some VR headset and while I'm using ALVR, which works on linux apparently, I'm also using an application to very smoothly stream 8k VR porn to my headset called 4X Link.

That's wrong. They both have about the same amount of fiddling around if you actually want to have a comfortable time using your OS. The only differences are that fiddling around in Windows is a lot harder and the documentation is more difficult to parse because there's a huge amount of misinformation and Windows is a lot more restrictive to you doing something that'd be inconvenient to fix (such as breaking boot). You can still do it, pretty easily in fact. I've accidentally broken boot on Windows more times than Linux because I usually notice the warning that I just did something wrong in the console whereas Windows registry editing doesn't have any feedback mechanism.

Installing Linux is also easier, since it only takes like 10 minutes on a decent PC for something like EndeavourOS or CachyOS. Debian has an installer that is about on par with Windows in how difficult it is to use, but it has the advantage that you don't need to pre-bake settings like local accounts into the installer while writing the USB so it's more straightforward.

Don't do gcc dirty like that, apologize to stallman right now.

Of course using Linux has downsides.
If we focus on games, you will likely always be a second class citizen since the market share of Linux is (and will remain) far less than Windows.
There will be a learning curve and certain things will frustrate you.

Having said that, look at what Microsoft is doing to Windows.
Do you really want to be locked in to the Windows ecosystem?
A lot of people are going to be eating Microsoft's shit for decades because they refuse to change.
Windows 11 is already so shit and it's only going to get worse.
More spyware, more ads and more incompetent developers.

Meanwhile Linux is only getting better.
If we focus on gaming, Valve is putting their full weight behind Linux gaming.
Steamdeck has already boosted Linux users significantly.

>Do you really want
that shit actually works?
yes
no one wants shitty pajeet Windows emulation, which Troonix has.
No developer in their right mind would make games for Troonix. therefore you will always play Windows games.

>>716508562
Sucks extra hard since EAC itself actually supports linux, it's just the developers of the games itself that don't want to support it.
Plus, these invasive anti cheats are useless anyway since these games are still filled with hackers anyway.
If you're truly interested in learning Linux then I would recommend you dual boot. Use Linux as much as you can and only boot Windows to play those EAC games.

>>716509941
no, it doesn't.
what it does is switch all kernel anti-cheat protection OFF and only a retarded developer would do that.
Troonix does not support kernel level anti-cheat.
Fuck off, troon.

How lame. So pretty much all Multiplayer games don't work?

>>716510303
your faggot layer literally says that it's emulation, lmao get fucked troon

>>716510325
yes, nothing works, unless the game devs were troons themselves, then they switch kernel anti-cheat off, which means countless of cheaters in the game.

>>716510325

No.
Learn how to write sentences without the words "all", "every", etc. and you'll be smarter than 99% of /v/.

>>716510759
Umamusume uses kernel anti-cheat and it works stable. Yes the anti-cheat is actually running too. Although to be fair it's probably nowhere near as effective as it would be on Windows where the driver would be running in the actual kernel.

It does, though. I was just pointing out that "every game with anti-cheat" was not correct. I don't care about anything else. Debate somebody else on whether the percentage of games that work is "good" or "bad". It's not zero in any case, and hence:
>>716510325

No.

Look at the Steam store warning. Yes it's a kernel level anti-cheat. It's just not kernel level on Linux because there is no access to the actual kernel. It is running under wine.
It spawns actually disgusting processes under Wine. If I was running it on real Windows I'd feel dirty.

>If you're truly interested in learning Linux then I would recommend you dual boot. Use Linux as much as you can and only boot Windows to play those EAC games
yeah thats the thing though it feels pretty lame to have to dual boot. I guess you could get one of those stripped down copies of windows and use that so their invasive shit isn't as prevalent. I'm gonna try and do more testing to see if its worth doing all that. Maybe I'll just get two different PC's lmao, might be the way to go

I'm running Mint with LXDE in an old ass laptop I use to play old games on trips. Normally takes 1.1 GB of memory as a baseline. Is there a way to go even more lightweight? Any other distro that's not too different?

>>716511409
I understand it. I just don't think it's a good way to communicate, and so I will push back on it. Don't write like a cretin next time.

>>716504237
arch or debian.
arch if you want cutting edge, debian for stability and reliability. every distro is basically "arch but" or "debian but".
arch can be a bit merciless to start with so go with Endeavor (basically arch with a gui installer).
if debian isn't retard proof enough for you use mint

>>716439232 (OP)
>VR "works"
I know people who are simultaneously VR and Linux stans, have not heard good things.

at this point the only games you can't run on linux are the games specifically built to not run on it. proton and wine take care of 99% of use cases

>>716439567
I actually thought you'd show me something worth playing.

>>716511696
kernel level anti-cheat is Windows only, because Troonix is literally insecure and shit.

just installed manjaro with kde. I've had some tough time getting things set up (fuck the windows boot manager, that shit would not get away like spaghetti sauce stain on tupperware). Also, the boot up is kinda fucky, it stays on the OEM logo for a bit, goes to the manjaro boot screen, goes back to OEM logo then flashes plasma screen (i think) then the boot screen. Any more tips are appreciated

TBF anon it's not that we dont want to go to linux its that we would have narrow it down to several OS' on PC that would work and any one that knows knows that Arch and Debian are the best choices.

>>716518472
Distrohop to your heart's content, anon. If you have the option to do so and there's no mission critical stuff happening on your computer go out and explore as much as you like. Back when I got into it, I was trying all kinds of systems and learning what they all did differently and it was a blast. I would say now is a better time than ever to do that kind stuff because you can always fallback to more stable distros or even just windows, if you prefer
