With the plethora of great games getting released every month on PC, it's very hard to feel any excitment for a game that will probably release in 2027 on PC. It doesn't help that GTA Online left a sour taste, and even the single player story was only great for the first few hours then you just start doing heists for the fbi for the rest of the game. Considering we're only getting a cinematic trailer after all this wait, I'm expecting already multiple delays or cyberpunk-level of disaster at launch

This is a really childish and badly formulated take on Windows Users. Basically, linux circlejerk.

Multiple mistakes:

1. You went with a very old distro, Ubuntu 22.04 is almost 2 years old. You could pick a non-lts ubuntu instead. Thankfully you ended up picking Fedora.

2. A single google search could've given you better alternatives to FreeRDP like Remmina. You can always ask people stuff like this on Lemmy or elsewhere ("what's the best rdp client on linux?") rather than waiting till you run out of patience.

3. You shouldn't need to compile software by yourself, you can use flatpak to install newer versions of software and flathub even has a beta repo you can add for even newer software.

It's not against you, we all learn from mistakes. Just try to be more social about your linux journey if you don't want to struggle

Tldr: you made the classic mistake of going head first into this without a friend to help you or at least documenting yourself properly on the current state of Linux desktops through various medias like Youtube. It doesn't help that you suffered from the ol' "I'm a windows expert so this should be similar/easy and if it fails it's not my fault"

Don't take me wrong, there's some truth to this. But the way it's written screams "Windows users are drones because of evil Microsoft". That level of bias is not really constructive. There are more reasonable/rational ways to expand upon this phenemonon that doesn't end up in a circlejerk. Since it's quite a big wall of text, I will give one example.

The author makes a broad generalization that, because of Windows' mystification of its inner workings, Windows users can't even imagine the thought of becoming a programmer. And well, I know plenty of programmers that to this day have not even touched anything but Windows. Some of them never use the terminal, but some are quite good at it.

You want an honest answer? Fedora was never that great to begin with and went down quite a bit in quality since the whole patent debacle. I had to switch distros when Mesa was constantly breaking. Also, untested kernel updates would remove HDMI audio (and despite a fix being available they waited a crazy long time to push it) among many other things

Tumbleweed is just plain better.

Chrome actually protected your sorry ass. Why the fuck are you not running Ublock origin?

Relatives using proprietary/borderline mslware/slow iptv apps. I wanted them to use something better

I've been trying for a while, looking up other manifests helped me but I'm still lost on a few things. Maybe we could help each other. I am the creator of open-tv.

Wayland didn't break everything, but Nvidia 545 certainly did

Discord and matrix are not searchable, they shouldn't be used at all

distrohopping till success it not a solution...

"Thanks to @Thorondir, I was able to resolve my crashing issues that began with 1.0: "Since 1.0 I couldn't start the game anymore. Turns out it's a kernel bug! See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3343

Enable 'Decoding Above 4G' and 'resize BAR' in BIOS."

A nice way to farm clicks. KMS keys have been a thing for a long time, if ChatGPT needed to tell you about it, I don't know what to say.

It can be done, but the goal of this app was to reproduce the classic top caption memes in a single command. I might add more features like the one you're talking about.

I once left my phone non locked in my pocket once and it started typing a ton of gibberish in a serious group chat. So yep, could've been worse for you

It's not exactly lesser known, but I only use Kate on both Linux and Windows

I think you're being disingenuous, you perfectly understand this phenomenon but it doesn't appeal to you. Paying for pixels will always be dumb anyway.

Did you really judge the current state of linux by using a 2 year old distro?

It works on my self hosted vaultwarden, they must've made a mistake when writing this
