Oh wow that’s a really stupid thing to say.

Could be a distro thing. I’m on Bazzite which is gaming focused so it wouldn’t surprise me if they had built in drivers for XBox controllers or something

Isn’t that like comparing apples to oranges? Bazzite is a distro and KDE is a DE

My XBone controller works perfectly fine with my Linux PC. No tinkering required. BT sees it and connects right away.

I have reinstalled arch 100+ times

You what?

I think it was the Gothic 1 Remake. I just torrented it instead.

I’ve had more websites, even from big names, crash my entire browser or PC in the last 6 months than ever before.

Yup. Websites and apps are breaking in strange ways I’d never seen before. And only in the past several months has it started to happen.

One that I can think of off the top of my head is Rotten Tomatoes

Browsing for movies/TV shows has been broken for weeks now. No matter how you try to sort them (e.g. most popular, highest rated, or new releases), it gives you literally all of them, in alphabetical order, starting with the “#” symbol.

Been like this for weeks. I’ve noticed in the past few days or so that sometimes it’ll give you maybe 8 that fit the sorting criteria, before moving to movies with titles like “#Alive” that came out years ago.

The game installed, but it wouldn’t play regardless of how I tried to launch it.

But the replies I’ve gotten seem to imply that they generally work, so maybe I’ll give it another try

Miley Cyrus Linux exists, but you cannot have it and Hannah Montana Linux on the same partition.

Lol Jesus

I had trouble with fitgirl repacks the last couple of times I tried

No, I mean if you plug in a second, different, monitor instead, does it show the panel.

Like is the panel configuration saved for that specific second display, or any second display regardless of device?

Just curious, it’s not that important and I could prob find out myself if I really cared to know

Does that panel only show up when you plug that specific TV in? Or does it come up regardless of the device?

Nothing says “socialist vibes” like gloating over other Linux users

I only know it’s five because I can subtract the numbers before anand after I click the “only show me Linux compatible games” filter button.

Just a heads up, to add on to this, just because Steam has a game listed as “unknown” or “unsupported” doesn’t actually necessarily mean that you can’t get it to work. So it might actually be less than 5.

For example, Steam says that the Dark Souls: Prepare to Die edition is “unsupported,” but I got it working, including DSFix, just fine (and very easily).

Still has an annoying app installation way. This is why I use AppImage.

Hard disagree. I’ll take package managers over how Windows does is every time

This is what Bazzite uses to update system and it’s perfect. One command and it updates everything, including firmware even

This hasn’t been true for years

My experience with older Windows games, as well, has been that they just work with Proton (often when people trying to run it on Windows need to download an obscure dll from a stranger’s google drive just to get it to launch).

I don’t miss a single thing from Windows
