I am looking forward to Wayland being a problem free experience. Well, rather, I don't care if it's X11 or Wayland, I don't want have to think about the underlying system.

My feedback: pick a different name, I thought this was void linux related.

1. click it
2. as it instantly opens you realise you didn't change that setting yet and go change it

Valve are doing the ARM experiment with the Steam Frame.

They mentioned not wanting to release a Steam Deck 2 until there was a significant performance upgrade available.

In my opinion an ARM chip with the FEX translation overhead isn't going to be it just yet, it will probably be another AMD SoC.

This made me wonder, with FEX couldn't Valve release steam for android? Steam library on your phone sounds good to me.

I didn't make it far through the game, I quit once I realised how lifeless the open "world" was.

People used to leave their PCs running 24/7 due to the fear of thermal expansion causing hard drive failure. It's not a problem anymore as far as I know, but this practice stuck with a lot of old power users.

It wasn't quite as silly when PCs didn't draw so much power.

The sleep functionality has historically been unreliable at best so that gets avoided as well.

Now, in 2026, even if I'm just going outside for 20 minutes I'll sleep the machine, unless it's doing something in particular.

The only time I've had any kind of crash was when I did a major KDE update while in KDE, but even then it consisted of the shell crashing and reloading itself. Which I took as a sign that I should restart KDE.

This is the real issue. If ReactOS actually became useful, Microsoft will act against them. Doesn't matter how cleanly they reverse engineered their implementation, ReactOS most likely don't have the funds to deal with any legal battles.

Side note, I hope you're making use of zram!

I don't know about OP but when I use a VPN, it's on all the time, not selectively enabled because I'm going to a particular website.

The first couple commands I run after install:

$ sudo apt install vim
$ sudo apt autopurge libreoffice*

When I, rarely, need more advanced features like window splitting and session management I also use Zellij

Konsole does window splitting as well, doesn't it?

Development was so slow that the project was effectively dead after E16, users moved on.

Seems like 9 gnome devs use lemmy.

How's the A770 treating you in general?

Let's not shorten his name to Turtle. 😓

It is still shit, and every battlefield game is full of unchecked wall / ESP hackers, with the occasional aimbot for additional spice.

X11 because Discord is unusable for me on Wayland, and I use it every day.

Edit: I recently switched to a 7800 XT (was using a 3080), and the discord problem was either solved since the last time I tried it, or not being on nvidia helps - no more weird input lag etc. in discord, so I've moved over to Wayland finally.

I was sick of paying the "Australia tax" for new releases that took longer to reach us than most of the rest of the world.

Exactly this, except I actually stopped for a long time when Netflix first came out and wasn't geo-restricted.. then the enshittification started.
