It actually was like that 2004. But now it is flawless to the point I am amazed every time.
This was literally me a year ago or so. I installed Mandjaro on my gaming laptop. We decided to try V Rising and even though discord was working fine I had zero game audio and couldn't fix it. I was still dual booting and switched back to Windows after 10 minutes.
Not a Linux hater. In all fairness, my long time experience with Windows allows me to troubleshoot problems easily but my lack of experience with Linux, and the variety of distros and tools that might be installed with each, makes the switch hard.
I'm going to try again with a more mainstream distro on a desktop that doesn't have a weird AMD/Nvidia mix and the need to deal with a MUX switch.
I can recommend bazzite. It has been amazing so far regarding stability and performance as a platform for mainly steam and proton games.
just after that you could actually install onto a rando laptop and have pretty much everything working. I remember because a guy did that and at the time we were like woa. this is very good.
I was running Gentoo at the time and tried Ubuntu. Completely different on many levels of course but x just worked and synaptics. Which was weirdly the most Impressive thing.
I know this is a funny haha community but
2024 and thats still is my experience despite what seemingly 99% experience I wish it wasn't soSame for me on Windows. I switched to Linux and now everything runs fine and the few issues I have are ones I can fix.
I guess that's just how things go huh?
I was an avid gamer under Window$. When I bought a laptop that was supposedly shipped without OS, because getting a M$W license was not in the budget, I asked a colleague to help me find a distro for my new computer.
Even after finding out the computer did in fact was preinstalled, I dual booted the thing and the first thing I discovered was that I could run Neverwinter Nights natively, running faster and smoother than under the OS I had originally played it.
Never looked back.
Or if your using something like mint and the auto update bricks your OS.
Booo get better jokes
:Playing wrong game = user error
Wow, this is a bad joke and not relatable. However, I have a new unity community to browse. Thank you op, your post sucks but the community doesn't
Everyone complaining expects the silver platter.
