Why does this happen to some of my games?
Missing codecs, try running with Proton-GE

Monster Hunter Wilds currently rated "Overwhelmingly Negative" on Steam
Reply in thread
The game moves on rails, doesn't encourage exploration, doesn't have any side content or freedom or sidequests until post-story..which also is lacking in content.
To make it better: the game runs terribly even on the latest hardware, matchmaking with friends is a hassle, confusing and doesn't have an online hub.. This is all a deviation from previous MH games, and some features from previous games just don’t exist in wilds.
The story and are combat fine, but the game just forces the story too much and doesn't give the player much freedom until it's finished.
Also denuvo.

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

Another finn chiming in, linux user for about 1.5 years. Another friend of mine started dual booting recently. Wouldn't say it's common to use Linux at all.

Bazzite would shut down if Fedora goes ahead with removing 32-bit
Reply in thread
Don’t worry. It's only a suggestion for Fedora 44, so high chance it won't happen. ( F44 will come out early 2026)

Shame that all these companies choose win11 over SteamOS

Gaming headsets.
Kept buying whatever I could for ~60-70€ at the time, and they kept breaking within a year. Bought proper headphones for 120€ which lasted me 8 years.

I don't know what to pick.
99% depends on your budget too. I have a 7900XTX and it has been smooth on wayland

Logitech being Logitech
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

How could you do this to me?

highly recommend installing linux on a separate ssd and removing the windows one for installation.
Also your steam library most probably won't like being loaded from the windows drive, because it is formatted to ntfs, which isn't perfectly supported on linux.

EU backs away from chat control
The title is misleading.
This is still happening, unfortunately, even using the same excuse of child exploitation as always. The main mass-surveillance and age verifications are still in there.
from https://fightchatcontrol.eu/:
Thanks to public pressure, the Danish Presidency has been forced to revise its text, explicitly stating that any detection obligations are voluntary. While much better, the text continues to both (a) effectively outlaw anonymous communication through mandatory age verification; and (b) include planned voluntary mass scannings. The Council is expected to formally adopt its position on Chat Control the 18th or 19th of November. Trilogue with the European Parliament will commence soon after.

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

State of gaming on linux?
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

Most can be disabled. Mine looks pretty much the same as it did 5 years ago. Try installing the developer edition or nightly to test if you can edit it to your liking

[Wayland] How to completely disable mouse acceleration?
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?

Why should I primary Linux for Home Desktop and which one do you recommend?
Reply in thread
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.

So, how many lemmynsfw.com communities have you blocked?
I've been able to ban whole instances with Connect for Lemmy and hide nsfw. Made the browsing a lot more enjoyable
