99% depends on your budget too. I have a 7900XTX and it has been smooth on wayland

Oh, makes sense. It thought Valve would already be working with some manufacurers based on this interview from November

Shame that all these companies choose win11 over SteamOS

Missing codecs, try running with Proton-GE

nah I had still warranty left, just sold the one I got back from RMA. Done govong Logitech my moneyy, I got a much better mouse now :)

Both suck.

Had TWO G413 keyboard where the E-key just stopped registering keypresses sometimes. Third one got the same issue on left ctrl… returned and got a custom keyboard lmao.

I also had a G Pro X Superlight whatever and it took only 4 months to develop double clicking and super weird tracking issues like stuttery cursor movement and sometimes just stopping to work unless I restarted or re-plugged the mouse. Recently got a Lamzu Thorn. Easily the best mouse I have ever had, can recommend over Logitech’s garbage

Same here. this is upsetting :/ Back to firefox I guess

Great news! is there a chance this will eventually lead to screen tearing protocol getting implemented?

Could be true for governmental work and computers but the masses aren’t moving to linux, it’s still under 1% in China.

it all makes sense now! solved.

UPDATE: I am an idiot.

I was setting the acceleration method for the wrong device all the time. I didn’t realize to select the actual mouse from the dropdown in KDE mouse settings until I plugged in my old mouse in.

Anyway that’s the acceleration solved. Also as qwesx pointed out, there is some issue with my Logitech Pro X Superlight. The mouse feels more sluggish when using the wireless dongle compared to it being wired. Must be the wrong polling rate or something?

Huh, it could be that I need a fresh install. I will try adding KDE Neon or something on my Ventoy and post an update. Thanks!

I recently built a custom keyboard by getting Keychron Q6 and Ducky One 3 PBT keycaps, the space is slightly tight if it’s not placed evenly, but they work and have shine-through! for the switches you should do your own research, since I like tactile :)

Anyway the keyboard works via the browser app VIA which is open source

edit: check maxgaming if you’re nordic. they have decent selection, it’s where I got my Q6

I also have an issue when starting up Flatpak Steam on Nobara. Steam started suddenly “bootlooping”. It appears in the background tasks of GNOME and disappeara after a few seconds.

I found a workaround, however; Start by closing it in the backround apps, right-clicking Steam on the dock and selecting any page to open to, like friends or store

I am also dual booting because of game compability and Virtual Reality support.

I think once wine-wayland gets fully merged we will see a clear uplift in performance, at least on wayland.

This very much.

The reason I switched was the forced updates that kept slowing down my computer when I needed the juice and network. Also there was a constant pressure to “upgrade” to win11.

OP, If you don’t have many major grievances with windows, it might not be worth switching. Nothing stopping you from taking a look in case you might like it. I have enjoyed my experience so far, despite some small issues.

Nobara on my desktop, Pop_os! on my laptop. As soon as the new COSMIC DE is ready I will switch to Pop on my desktop as well.

Seems pretty okay. I managed to get League of legends/TFT running perfectly fine (though the launcher is a bit stuttery)

CSGO I noticed runs WAY smoother on Linux. Maybe becausw it uses Vulkan which is a lot more modern than dx9. But the aim just feels… smoother despite the same FPS?

edit: on Nobara and a AMD GPU

Could it be just mud with iron bacteria that’s dripped on the tree?
