There’s no arch hate, it’s just not a distribution for new users. Your downstream distribution might be a bit better at handling the arch quirks by default, but i guarantee you it doesn’t go through the same testing that new Fedora solutions go through before new releases for example. I’m glad you found something that suited you, but for most people, people that will never try to bypass the immutability in the first place, Bazzite is better ootb.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Valve says they want SteamOS to be installable on any PC
1·30 days agoThat’s already a thing though? It’s up to the applications to implement their shortcuts through xdg-portal.

183·1 month agoBazzite is downstream from fedora, which i’ll remind you is partially handled by red hat, aka a large ass company with “a lot of money to throw into things”. The bazzite developers only handle a smaller portion of the maintenance that distributions require, and really only as much as they want and are confident in handling.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Why do game devs keep making horrible Linux Ports?
2·1 month agoWe’re not talking about the same thing. GNOME did get rid of titlebars, most core applications use sidebars and the rest use headerbars - which are better integrated titlebars. I suggest reading the article.

2·1 month agoYou do know the reason GNOME is pushing CSDs is to get rid of titlebars right?

1·2 months agoDistribution are basically a bunch of presets, nobara is just fedora with a few gaming defaults, bazzite is immutable fedora, popos is ubuntu… If you can pinpoint the problem you probably could’ve fixed it in both bazzite and popos without moving around; there’s thousands of different pc configurations so ymmv across distros.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Linux Distros (Gaming) From 2018 to 2025 - OMG the Change!
2·2 months agoFedora isn’t quite the same as Ubuntu or RHEL, it’s partly handled by both the community and redhat. See the Fedora Project.
Let’s put things into perspective, it’s a biyearly notification that sustains the entire gnome ecosystem, I’ll remind you that the GNOME foundation pays for the hosting costs, the paperwork and sometimes even development for the GNOME project that includes dozens of apps, libraries and GTK.
This is just the first implementation that will get ironed out in the next few years, like making sure it doesn’t pop up in full screen windows and if you read through the issue there will also be an opt out in the settings.
It’s easy to test with
notify-send test, and yeah GNOME does block notifications while fullscreen applications are open. I wonder how that notification went through, maybe gamescope isn’t properly registering the fullscreen application or it’s x11 wine being the problem.
GNOME lets you block notifications on a per application basis.

46·3 months agoParents fail all the time, that’s when the government needs to step in and take action, in this case by making sure kids can safely play the game. And I disagree, Roblox’s entire business revolves around children, they make money off them at every step and they even pay kids to make content for their platform; they should be and they are rightfully being held accountable for what happens on their platform.

13·3 months agoThat’s tame compared to blizzard tbf. Anyways these projects depend entirely on the reputation of the project and the goodwill of the community, you don’t have to trust someone when their cashflow depends on you liking what they’re making.

94·4 months agoIf you really gotta stick with windows, you upgrade to windows 11. ESU is fine for a bit, but everyone will start dropping support for windows 10 in the next couple of years, starting with nvidia in 2026. LTSC is not for regular users.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Watched a video about Debian and now I am not sure is the best for me.
2·4 months agohttps://wiki.debian.org/DebianUnstable
Debian Unstable (also known by its codename “Sid”) is not a release, but rather the development version of the Debian distribution containing the latest packages that have been introduced into Debian. It is not a “rolling release”, as no release-like quality assurance and integration testing is done on it.
You need some amount of testing because packages do break, the 2 week testing window on arch is really important in making sure your pc can at least boot.
How is it a scam? They’re offering a service and asking for a price. It’s the same thing everywhere in software, if you want longer support you need to pay up.
