I'd love to switch to Linux. I've used Linux off and on for almost two decades now. At one point I was triple booting Windows XP, Windows 7, and Fedora. The one thing holding me back is, strangely enough, game compatibility. I know Proton has made huge strides as I've seen it first hand on the Steam Deck, a lovely little machine. The problem is, I have a huge library, and while I'm okay with slightly less than ideal performance here and there on the Deck (40hz mode anyone?), I absolutely refuse to lose any performance due to running Linux. Benchmarks still show some titles losing 5-15% performance when running through Proton.
Don't get me wrong. I love FOSS. I donate and try to spread the word as much as I can when I find a passion project, and find it particularly useful. Even though this may seem to go against what I previously said, I'm debating on switching to Linux when Windows 10 loses support. I do not want to enable fTPM on my motherboard or update my BIOS if I don't have to. My PC is stable, no thank you. I feel like I'll have to troubleshoot whether I choose Linux or Windows 11. Ugh.
All I know is LineageOS claims to support devices beyond the date manufacturers do. Graphene stops getting updates the same date the manufacturer sets.
Ugh. Dying Light is such a great game. I tried getting into the second one but only got a few hours in. Maybe I should try again. What does this mean for the future of Techland? I only know that Tencent isn't viewed favorably by the majority of concerned gamers but I don't know the specifics of why.
I'm not too knowledgeable on this but I imagine the servers update content or ingest content from other servers at different rates. Some larger instances are under heavy load and some instances may be running older/newer versions of Lemmy.
Do admins have any say in how content is ordered in the feed? I don't know at all.
I was just pressing every button once without success.
