gaming on linux has gotten MUCH, MUCH better over the past handful of years. I’ve been on linux exclusively for 6 years and in that time ive gone from using Lutris for everything and only installing the few verified titles through fairly complex wineconfigs other people made, to a brief check of protondb before installing whatever i want from Steam and having it work out of the box. basically the only things that don’t work anymore are competitive anticheat softwares, like Valorant’s.

it’s so sad that people aren’t recognizing this

the only problem with torriminatorr is it goes down pretty frequently

I was going to link you to Mullvad’s port forwarding guide but it looks like they removed that feature just this year

I have to disagree with the notion that China doesn’t respect open-source hardware. Alibaba group just recently open sourced some of the most useful, including the most powerful RISC-V core to-date. Open sourcing processor IP is almost unheard of. China is pushing the RISC-V and open hardware envelope pretty hard. They definitely do still profit off of American open hardware, but that’s a good thing for the consumer most of the time.

unfortunately the guy in the video is a fervent anticommunist and zionist (if he is who i think he is, thehistorywizard on tik tok). he has the occasional good take, and then starts going off about “tankies” being nazis or israel being socialist and it’s like, cmon man

fascism is when you get rid of fascists. i am very smart

this is the case on windows as well in my experience

that’s totally fair, it’s not for everyone. the installation and configuration process is pretty long. however, day-to-day maintenance is very minimal if that’s what you’re worried about. i usually touch the terminal ~1x a day, just to update, and then go about internet browsing and gaming. however, if gaming is your focus, i would encourage you to check out nobara, as another commenter said. it was designed around gaming, by the same guy (gloriouseggroll) who made the custom version of wine i mentioned in my first comment. it’s fedora-based, so it shouldn’t be any harder to use than debian or ubuntu.

What distro are you considering? I know e.g. Arch has a wiki page dedicated to the FrameWork and basically everything works.

It’s not this significant (3x). it should be closer to 7%. My guess is that OP is using something like btrfs, whose data used is calculated differently due to the CoW nature, and btop++ is using using a generic tool to estimate disk usage rather than the btrfs utility that DUA is almost certainly using.

often times it will get actual documented solutions wrong too. is an example of the same type of concept implemented in the MDN
