Microsoft Recall? More like Recall The Windows Operating System. [crickets]
Still, congratulations on the switch. Did it myself recently and it’s been quite nice.
Now, for my fellow NVIDIA users, I can confirm at least for my GPU (Geforce GTX 1650 SUPER) Wayland has equivalent or less bugs as Xorg now. No more sporatic visual glitches with Steam and steam games like I used to experience.
Can confirm that Wayland runs charmingly with beefier GPUs as well, though the graphical glitches are not great for some apps. Krita’s my go-to illustration app and it does not take hardware acceleration from Nvidia well at all. AMD is much better in this regard.
A bit of a derail, I think something that a lot of Linux jumping posts fail to mention is that Linux is a hobbyist OS. Configuring Linux and learning how it works is very fun. Testing FOSS apps is very fun. KDE Connect is such an amazing little thing it easily justifies the switch for me. Most people could feasibly install Linux with Mint or Fedora now and only have to touch the console perhaps twice. But Windows is made to be looked at and not touched and stable as a rock-- if you’ve messed with registry keys at least once, Linux can be a legitimately enjoyable experience.
It’s a shame Windows is still the golden standard for PC gaming, though, and virtualization is a cointoss. LTSC is the best version of Windows by far to make a Launchbox machine and they have that locked under corporate license only. Legally, anyway.
Maybe Valve will continue flat out revolutionizing Linux gaming, what with several distros testing out HDR. Who knows?
