Hey folks. I’m a new dad which means my gaming time is at a premium, but I am going through a big cleanse of the enshittification era of the internet right now, and Windows 11 is kinda giving me bad vibes.
Last time I tried to run Linux it was ok and worked the majority of the time, but ray tracing and a few games caused some issues. I was also using game pass which of course doesn’t work on Linux, so I dropped back to windows.
How is Nvidia life these days? I’ve got a 3080 and an AMD 9800X3D so it should be fine for most games I imagine.
Same here. I’ve never run into any of the edge cases that need the bleeding edge updates, and I’ve been running the same install for a while without any stability issues.
Yeah, I literally tested my whole steam library. Around 100 games. Only like 3 wouldn’t work at all, and those were old somewhat wonky games. I even got most non steams working too. In steam, a minute looking at proton db and making minor adjustments to the config was needed maybe 5-10% of the time.
Important to note that most of my games are 10+ years old
