I love gaming on my Linux machine, and for the most part it is a pleasant experience. By far the worst outcome is when an update breaks a game that was working perfectly fine. This seems to happen regularly, especially with online games.

Sleep and Audio are definitely my most annoying, and prominent, issues that I run into. Devices like USB audio interfaces I find tone temperamental. Oftentimes they will not be recognised on startup and I have to unplug them and replug them back in. I also gave up on hibernate, my PCs are now either on or off…

Let me burn my CDs in peace!

I’ve always found Freetube to be the best, most reliable alternative by far. It does break occasionally though which is disappointing, but I would assume that’s due to YouTube fighting hard to keep people on their own platform.
