  • No, its not that. I dont suggest people switch GPU unless absolutely needed. That GPU should be able to have a great time on Fedora. When you used fedora did you install the proprietary driver? Because Bazzite ships the proprietary driver but Fedora ships the Open source one which is really bad.

    I miss getting home from rugby Saturday morning jumping on my bike and going house to house knocking on the door and in the most polite voice asking if my friend could please come hangout and stay the night. Each house the party size would increase then id finally get back to my house and all my friends would crowd around a tiny TV and we’d play wwe with a multi tap, 4 player splitscreen or die tries on a single player game for like 1 or 2 hours before my mum came and told us we had had enough time in front of screens and needed to go play outside.

    Fun times









  • Dual booting is fine. Microsoft destroying bootloaders is mostly a meme off a few bugs. Any distro that ships an up to date kernel and drivers is good. Fedora/Ubuntu. Bazzite is kinda weird for gamers because it just makes every problem harder to solve. If you never tinker then its fine but Bazzite feels more restrictive than windows without knowing how it works.





  • Curiosity and fate. I was perfectly happy on windows but I was listening to the WAN show and they were talking about their 30day linux channel. About 2 weeks before the first ep my windows install completely bricked itself after an update and I couldnt recover the key so I was forced to either pay for windows again or stay on the free version. I ended up installing linux mint and it was an awful experience. Out of the box mint is pretty crap hardware compat wise. I tried a few other distros before settling on Manjaro where everything worked out of the box and from there i started learning linux.

    I plan to keep moving distro’s every few years just to see different ways of learning linux. Im currently on Nobara and fedora on my laptop. I think its probably the best linux distro out there(fedora). I’ve tried gentoo but I did not get it working to the same standard as nobara. I do plan to try gentoo again because I liked being able to pick all the stuff on my system and compiling it. I didnt like selecting all the useflags tho.
