Be honest, is COSMIC ready for gaming?
>>
>>107831927
Once it ships on Debian 15
>>
>>107831927
I hope so.
>>
>>107831927
I daily drive it and I do some light gaming (mostly emulated) without any issues.
>>
>>107832848
Last time i tried it I couldn't alt-tab out of games, is it fixed?
>>
>>107831927
I am gaming on it right now without a single problem. Even running OBS without any issues. I was more worried about OBS than gaming because of wayland, but I was surprised I didn't have to mod or change
anything.
The only issue I have so far is that they broke cosmic snapshop with the last update, which I know they will fix soon enough.

*cosmic screenshot
i use it a lot, so breaking it wasn't a good thing
>>
>>107832880
Never had an issue like that personally
>>
It's a desktop environment
It runs your desktop
Your desktop doesn't have to be gaming ready
>>
Pop is pretty based. It IS the best plug n play distro out there.
>>
>>107833782
Even with cosmic?

Cosmic isn't terrible. It is still new. Everything still works just fine, but they will break something here and there along the way. The thing about Sys76 is that they are pretty fast about recognizing it and fixing it.
Besides you don't have to use cosmic or even wayland.
sudo apt install gnome -y
or
sudo apt install kde-full -y
and the reboot and log into gnome/x11 or kde...
takes less than 5 minutes if you really dont want to use cosmic
>>
>>107833878
how fucking stupid do you have to be to read "DON'T DO THIS" from the system, then do it anyway and then blame the system?
sheep like you should be hanged to death in public
>>
>>107831927
I installed it a couple of months ago, before official release, and had to go back
I had weird errors in two games, one of them was KCD I think, that prevented it from starting and it simply don't happen with Gnome.
I use Arch btw
>>
>>107833897
>the system asks you to break it or stop using steam with no alternative

and troons defend this
>>
>>107831927
COSMIC is functional for gaming on capable hardware but lags behind mature environments like KDE Plasma in gaming-specific optimizations, Wayland support stability, and peripheral integration. It's acceptable but not yet the best choice for a dedicated gaming setup.
>>
>>107833892
>doing all that to literally just use regular Ubuntu or Kubuntu
>>
>>107831927
I can't stand cosmic, but you can get kde up and running pretty easily on pop.

pop is good for steam games, osrs, emulators, even ffxiv. the problem with most "gaming" linux os like cachy/garuda/manjaro is that arch sucks dick. arch has issues with tons of commonplace gaming brands like corsair and steel series. "where did my headset go?" normal users will never tolerate this level of bullshit
>>
>>107835247
this is all true. i have distro hopped for years and Pop has been the only one I can literally install and start gaming with, without having to do much of anything other than picking a version of proton
>>
>>107831927
Just use gamescope in another virtual console.
