KIt's a much better experience now, you're going to have some brick walls you run into but it's just going to be the learning curve you have to go through, Windows has the same thing but people have just forgotten
SI'm gonna be studying computer science too in college in like 9 months
KNice
SDamn you're probably way older than me
BMain area where linux can be awkward for me is audio. Occasionally i have to manually toggle the audio device selection in gamemode to get it to pickup a new audio device. Another time an app may accidentally get muted while in desktop mode and you will have to go back on there to unmute it
KI just hit my 30s
Tyeah lol. my microphone likes to automatically adjust to 100% volume all the time despite having it on 76% input volume at all times. not that it stays there
SMan I'm not even 18 yet.
BI had that a lot on steamos. On bazzite i enabled extra volume toggle in desktop mode and have my mic set to 130%. Seems to have stuck
BThere's no rush, cherish your spare time while you have less responsibility (hopefully)
SDoes steam os have a controller friendly browser
SOh I'm 100% doing that my sleep schedule is absolutely fucked
SI fell asleep at 9am Today
Konly chrome & chromium browsers work well in gamemode
SI woke up at 5pm
KI recommend sticking to the desktop for web browsing
SMean does Steam input work on those browsers?
Tthere's less issues
Kyes
BI have been using dualshock 4 in game mode with microsoft edge (chromium-based) for streaming and video sites. Works well enough
Kworks on anything, it's either simlating an xinput controller or a keyboard & mouse
Kor both
Tfirefox can run in game mode now but it has major issues
SThen I'll use Chrome and Ublock origin lol
SHow long has this OS been in development?
Klittle over a year, but it's based on Fedora
Kwhich has been around a very long time
T^you directly receive updates from fedora as well
Kyup, it's why we don't call ourselves a distro
Tso it's not like bazzite has a maintenance burden
Tyea
Kfedora updates, we apply our recipe to it, it goes to you
Kcustom image
Toh by the way, it has been in development for a little over a year, but it didn't hit a public release until August of 2023
SHell yeah nice.
SAre there some games that straight up don't work on Linux?
Kyes, usually for anti-cheat reasons
SSo fortnite doesn't work what about GTA 5?
KGTA V works perfectly
SA bit cringe but Roblox?
Kvia Vinegar launcher
SWhat about the finals?
Kworks, use proton experimental
RThe big ones are fortnite, r6 and valorant
RAnd soon league
