You WILL game on Linux.
>>729745918will linux make gpu and ram prices cheaper?
Nah, I gamed on linux today, now it's time to drink.
>>729745918Already am. Only thing I miss is Call of Duty Field 6, which given it's CoD and NOT BATTLEFIELD, I'm not missing much.
>>729745918Is it good?
>RAM and computing resources in general become scarce>baby ducks on /v/ forced to move to extremely light linux distros to max out their resource usagelol the "sorry I'm still installing windows 11 fags" are going to have the Linuxpill choice made for them
>>729746998Holy shit!
>bubble sense tingled at the start of the AI boom and I got a 4090 for msrpsorry I guess you'll have to go on without me, I don't think it'll be worthwhile to replace this thing for a decade at this rate.ironically w11 thinks my computer is too old for it and I'm lazy so I guess we'll see if security holes mean anything
>>729745918yes
>>729745918Sure, no problem, i am fucking tired of AI in all windows shit.
Not yet.
>>729745918when
>>729745918When linuxfags finally unfuck their shit
Honestly, I'm thinking about it. What I think I'm going to do as part of my new year's resolution is I'm going to go through all of my Steam and GoG and other computer games that say "no support on Linux" and play through those.Problem is that I have no way to systematically go through teh GoG games to tell me which ones don't have good Linux support.
>>729748979Why Greece and Turkey?
>>729748979your retarded map comes from statcounter's data from 2024since then linux use has dropped from 15% to 5% and windows has been overtaken by an unknown OS which demonstrates how shit it is as a source, retarded nonlinear fluctuations like that make no senseif you learned how to read you'd notice the two charts are different things tooimagine revealing your illiteracy
>>729748979I am whiter than you.
>>729745918I've gamed on linux for the past 10 years
>>729749103>wall of saarnix copeIt doesn't come from statcounter, but whatever.
>>729749279then where does it come from?post your source
>>729748979You won't believe this, but:
>>729749319Google is you friend, my good saar.
>maintain a wiki page for a game>switch over to linux>game gets updated>can't figure out where the asset files areAlso semi-related but how annoying is it to mod a game on linux? I'm really getting the itch to replay skyrim.
How easy is it to pirate games on linux? How easy is it to mod games?
>>729749408lmao, found itare you going to kill yourself now?
>>729749506>how annoying is it to mod a game on linuxAs annoying as it is on windows. You drop files where they belong and be done with it.
>>729748979You shill windows, you are a saarfag
>>729749639Nice inspect element linjeet.
>>729749753https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmasterrace/comments/1ax0sh3/i_created_a_map_of_the_linux_market_share/denial isn't healthy, you're fucking pathetic
>>729745918How's CachyOS? Upgrading my rig atm and considering changing the distro as well.

>>729749506I've heard some games are a pain but I haven't had problems.
>>729749968genuinely the best distro out there for fast learners
>>729749510Pirating is about as easy as on windows. Run the installer and apply crack if you need to. It's typically recommended to use a launcher for games you install outside of a storefront, so it manages the prefix and proton and shit for you, lutris is popular but I prefer heroic.
>>729749968just use arch
>>729750310Bottles also just works. >create bottle>launch binary >just werks
>>729750130Cope saarnix troon
>>729750423I've always had weird issues with bottles so I don't bother with it.
>>729748470I've found that if it isn't a multiplayer game with anti-cheat you can generally assume it justwerks (if you have AMD, with Nvidia it justwerks*). Multiplayer games with anticheat will either justwerk or notwerk at all. I installed this because I wanted to tinker around with shit whenever it broke but years on now and I have had to do less tinkering than I did with windows. Like it's actually slightly frustrating that whenever I think I might have some problem that will require me to actually dig in and learn linux a bit there's always something on AUR that just does it for me.
>>729749510>piratelol>modyou will have to tinker and figure shit out on your own
>>729748979>>729749103The bigger issue is that most Indian traffic is phone browser based, so what the graph is really tracking is user agent spoofing in response to websites blacklisting specific user agents or only allowing traffic from user agents on a whitelist. Unknown OS in this case is just an unrecognized user agent, likely from some random new phonebrowser that is mainly used in the Indian market or preloaded on an Indian shartphone.This is also why it can often vary so wildly.
>>729750489i don't have to, you have to do this disingenuous faggoty kike tactic of not even acknowledging you're wrong to keep this goinglast you, this is sad, take your meds or go back to school
>>729750401arch really doesn't offer anything that cachyos doesn't already haveyou'd really only want it for purism and brand recognition
>>729750401But I don't want to use Arch btw
>>729749506>Also semi-related but how annoying is it to mod a game on linux? I'm really getting the itch to replay skyrim.Depends on the distro, extremely annoying on Debian based, slightly annoying on every other distro. Prepare to jump through hoops for stuff like Dyndolod.
so what? bazzite? when's Steam OS for desktop?
>>729750782arch is not as friendly for trans folx
>>729751017Do tell, how on earth would the distro matter when it comes to manipulating files within a wineprefix?
>>729751219if you're after matching your politics then you're not finding anythingfor that chuds would have to stop coping about staying on windows and make their own shit
Gaymer distros are all fluff and eyecandy shilled by subhumansPicrel is what you're in forGet mint and if you don't like it then get ready to tinkertranny with arch>t. used loonix for 9 years
>>729745918I got my fucking computer wet and the tech said windows 11 somehow destroyed itself and bricked my computer even though my components are fine. I'm phoneposting rnI'm starting to think it's a humiliation test just to see how much normies will put up with. There is no way they downgraded literally everything by accident, that's too stupid, it is completely objectively worse than previous versions

>>729747231Holy shit...

>>729745918I'm keeping windows for now, but I'm cheering linux on to improve. I hope steam machine helps popularise it for dumb users.

>>729750782Arch works in a virtual machine, CachyOS does not, or at least not without specific tweaking.Arch can be assumed to have been tested as a platform for specific software, CachyOS can not be assumed to have been similarly tested, because CachyOS is still niche and will push its changes specifically for its niche, not compatibility with whatever software you are running.Setup and troubleshooting guides exist for Arch, but generally not for CachyOS, which can matter in the tiny handful of cases where those aren't the same thing.It is a niche distro for a specific purpose that makes compromises in certain areas to deliver its specific usecase of eking some more performance, and one of those compromises is just potentially reduced compatibility.I do not use CachyOS, because I want my distro to just werk or I at least want the cause of my problems to be my own bullshit, not some edge case.It's my understanding that CachyOS doesn't really add anything other than a live installer, some dotfiles for window managers and those optimizations that I can just install after the fact from the AUR or by adding the correct repos to pacman.I've installed CachyOS one or two times, but never stuck with it, because Arch just werks.
>>729752247at this point just stay at windows 10no need to cripple your gaming experience by going windows 11 or troonix path
>>729752070It's not like I can fucking switch systems if it recovers. I have to buy windows again, they bricked my fucking computer and I'm paying them for it
>>729752392>I have to buy windows againlol?
>>729752368and let the world pass you by?it's just kicking the can down the roadyou're going to have to choose at some point and windows isn't going to get any betterdelaying the weaning will only make linux sound scarier than it actually is
>>729751945Picrel are the people behind cachyosIf you look up the names, most of them are students with zero experience
Instead of fighting, Linux and Windows users should be having romantic sex and dunking on Apple users.

I do game on Linux. I own a steam deck
>>729745918I've been gaming on Linux for a year now and I'm not going back to Windows

>>729751945>>729752629>>729753738Don't ever use gaming distroesLinux mint is very well established and stable
>>729745918Explain why I would use some tranny OS instead of just using the old version of Windows.
>>729754217you're not installing windows 10 on new hardware in 10 years the same way you can't install windows 10 past amperethis mindset will only lead to postponing the humiliation ritual and cucking to the newest windows as you can't spare the mental energy to learn apparently
>>729751945>>729754190don't actually use mint or any debian based distro for gaming
>>729753738>stfu i did not break anything>I'm not going to sit there when I'm being verbally abusedthe absolute state of open sores developers
>>729754001Yeah basically. You gotta select an exe to run, select the installer first and then point it to the actual game exe once it's done installing.One of the nice features or heroic I like is that when you go to add a game it has a button for "run installer", which runs any exe really but it doesn't set it as the game path, so you don't have to do the whole dance of changing the executable path twice, or more if you're installing dlcs

>>729754628Your barely higher FPS are thanks to tweaks to the kernel, which only apply for CPU operations so you're not gonna see more than a few frames of difference in 99% of gamesmostly placebo on top of a shitty foundation that restricts your system significantly (look up immutable distros)
>>729755493Also worth mentioning that they do nothing for most of cpu models
Only steam deck
You will jump off a bridge, like all frogtrannies
>>729755617what is your experience with a steam deck?
>>729756035Thanks to Deck, my interest in Linux has grown; so far it's been a solid experience, and with things like Decky+FSR4+lossless, I can play AAA games. I was there changing the thermal paste and doing a general cleaning; the automatic fan curve improved a lot, although at 80° you can't hear the fans at all with the thermal paste.
Tried. Shit didn't work
>>729753738grim

Okay Debian or Fedora?
