Goh just to add to this, VA monitors have really good contrast, which is why I got mine - I was doing work at the time that needed colour accuracy and contrast. I'd say go with IPS if you don't need high contrast for work
JNothing but love to glorious eggroll for his work in proton, but nobara isn't something I'll recommend tbf
VWii U came today, just waiting on the PSU and then I get to try using my Steam Deck as a gamepad
Git was endeavour that only lasted the afternoon actually! I've really enjoyed nobara, its just things like sunshine work out of the box with bazzite, and nobara's updates have been a bit messy as of late, which pushed me back here
Pi wouldn't recommend it either for some reasons but i just poke fun at it as a joke because this is the #
bazzite channel
bazzite channelVGlorious Eggroll is great, and Nobara's not bad but it is VERY opinionated.
And the thing with opinions is not everybody has sane ones
And the thing with opinions is not everybody has sane ones
Pyuuuup
Gand i like the fact that I can rebase to fedora if the bazzite team ever decide to take all their funding and abscond to a small island somewhere
VDiscover? Who needs it
Aopensuse tumbleweed wasnt too bad i also just chose arch because of those youtubers who flex with using arch
Gyeah the thing about removing discover and replacing it with the nobara package manager was a little rough for me
Pno backage manager
P:^)
Gin GE's defence, he's always said that the target audience for Nobara is basically just his dad, and if anyone else wants to use it that's fine
Gwhich honestly is real linux energy right there
PLOL
Pthat's a good reason to not use it i guess
Pi'm not GE's dad
Gnot with that attitude

Gfrom what i've seen of ublue and all its spins, its slightly less of a hobby distro approach and more of a serious crack at the distro whip
Pthat means the ruse has worked
VI propose that Bazzite 4.0 be the update where Bazzite goes truly immutable, this would mean that:
- Remove distrobox
- Lock rpm-ostree behind a root account with no password. Intention being it is not accessible.
- Change user permissions to only be allowed to launch pre-installed apps
- Remove GNOME images, unrelated but I think it's a good idea
- Remove FUSE
- Remove distrobox
- Lock rpm-ostree behind a root account with no password. Intention being it is not accessible.
- Change user permissions to only be allowed to launch pre-installed apps
- Remove GNOME images, unrelated but I think it's a good idea
- Remove FUSE
VPerhaps we could remove desktop mode all together for a proper console experience?
GSteam comes as read only and pre-signed in to Jorge's account
VWe lock /home/ too, so steam can never install.
Mbazzite endgame
Pgiving this my vote just to remove GNOME images. didn't read the rest.
Gi love gnome but am ready to drop it as soon as cosmic is functional
AThe perfect desktop - no gui, no tty, no storage, computer stays off
VI'm on KDE but also excited for Cosmic.
Gkde has just been too crashy for me, and I feel like when i start customizing it I end up just trying to get it to look like vanilla gnoma
Gat which point, what am I doing with my life
VEh, I find it to be ok. There are issues though.
VCosmic is GNOME done right in my eyes
VI have it on my Laptop right now, multi-monitor and refresh rate switching bugs make it currently unusable for my desktop
Gi had a go on a live ISO and liked what I saw
VBut it's an alpha, and overall my experience with it so far has been very positive.
Gi think its in really good shape for an alpha honestly
Gwouldn't put it on my PC just yet but it seems really far ahead
VEhhh, dig a little deeper. It's a good alpha but it's DEFINITELY an Alpha.
VThere's pretty high-level settings pages which are just... blank
Glike its missing stuff, but didn't feel too unstable
VA lot of them are very broken
VThe default apps (which there are also few of) are currently very basic
VIt's good but yeah, obviously not ready. As they are literally saying haha
Agnome rn has better nvidia compatibility plasma 6 is plagued with nvidia bugs and glitches so nah atleast not yet
VI've been on AMD for a while now but yeah I get that
VNVIDIA is in a pitiful state
VMy 11 year old laptop is perfect on wayland
