Why do you use this for gaming? Explain yourself right now

>>11895362 (OP)
Unironically better than Windows unless you like modern AAA games (and on this board we do not like those)

>>11895362 (OP)
I don't I just installed Windows 11 the correct way and then debloated it.

>>11895362 (OP)
feels good

Linux is for trannies. Windows 10 IoT LTSC 22H2 is the white men way.

>>11895362 (OP)
Fuck Loonix.

For me it's the TOPS-10 operating system

This is /vr/ right? If we're talking about emulating old shit, I'm pretty sure both Linux and Windows have access to most emulators and will work about the same. But Linux won't capture your screen every three seconds and then use AI to extract information from the images and build a profile on you.

This, it's why I'm glad to be a Deck owner. (Bonus points for also being a great emu machine.)

I installed Windows 10 on my Deck

>>11895487
Yikes, doesn't that introduce overhead? I'm well aware it's possible to go for a debloated LTSC edition, but I'm not sure if that's any better than sticking with SteamOS. I guess it's an appealing option if I absolutely need ShaderGlass for non-RA stuff.

Never in my life have I encountered a retro game that didn't work on Linux ...

>>11895372
The correct way is LTSC

>>11895362 (OP)
it's the only thing that runs on my chinkhelds.

Because it's unironically much easier to get a couple retro computer games working in wine than it is to setup and deal with a (whether it be virtual, or physical) Windows 9x machine

>>11895518
Good taste, Android's emulators tend to be paid outside of Retroarch.

nice /v/ trash thread you've got there

better win16 support for late 90s games

>>11895472
linux has better performance on software mode emulators, but worse performance on hardware mode

>>11895372
>"debloat" Windows 11
>only gets rid of maybe 5% of the telemetry
>still uses 4GB of RAM after a cold boot
>still have a shitty GUI where basic components like the Start Menu are written in fucking JavaScript
Join the penguin.

>>11895472
you say this but there are obvious outliers like ubuntu

>>11896356
Ew, I'd rather use something Arch-based after getting used to SteamOS.

>>11896359
>doesn't realize anon is making a point about canonical also being shady
I need to read more carefully before replying.

Does MouseInjector work on Wayland yet? To test, you'll need:
>An old version of Duckstation
https://github.com/duckstation/old-releases/releases/tag/v0.1-5943
>A compatible game (I choose Mega Man Legends 2)
https://vimm.net/vault/5972
>And MouseInjector itself
https://github.com/garungorp/MouseInjectorDolphinDuck

>>11896356
the concerns for ubuntu are completely overblown and aren't stuff other distros don't also do just more quietly. Just look at redhat.
I use opensuse tumbleweed btw

>>11895410
I feel like trying to do *bsd gaming today would be like trying to linux gaming 10+ years ago

Because the ARM version of Windows sucks major dicks and is a bloated mess if you just need something very lightweight purely for a specific task. Such as running the background OS for my MiSTer.

>>11895410
even mac gaming is superior to bsd
wtf are you talking about?

>>11895362 (OP)
Basically I don't like Windows in general, linux works well for everything else I do and gaming is good enough at this point.

>>11896230
by the way you can't even remove the windows 11 start menu popup without finding a powershell script online
worse humiliation ritual than actually playing neslop

>>11895372
That's not "debloating", that's getting rid of some jeet-added retardation. You're still dealing with the shitty start menu.

>>11895362 (OP)
Because I can no longer trust Microsoft.
Also I met Steve Jobs once, the guy was fucking rancid.

>>11895362 (OP)
Literally everything /vr/ can be played on it, Anons here have no excuses

The only reason i'm running windows now has nothing to do with games honestly.
Once file pilot and rad debugger gets ported over I won't have much of an excuse to use windows anymore.

fixed the taskbar&startmenu

>>11895362 (OP)

>>11897239
The 11 start menu will still be in memory at all times

He'd smell better if you met him when he was still alive.
