seems its a nvidia issue, i also have that issue, the gpu locks and i need to reboot while the VM with the nvidia passthrough freezes. i need a full reboot from baremetal machine to stop gpu using all his power stuck, don't let it be for hours being on or you will kill your hardware
But that's the theory, when I run games on GNOME the games and desktop itself looks laggy, on KDE 4 I still noticed some lag while with KDE 5 I feel almost like playing on i3wm, with 3iwm you can run many games faster and with less lag than many Windows users (my Windows friends normally have more issues than me). While KDE 5 is my second-best option, there is no third for me. Or i3wm or KDE for gaming. And normally my PC specs stands higher than the recommended on many games (also new ones). If you can test it and provide some feedback would be great.
I tried a lot of desktop environments and I think KDE is the best one, games runs much better than GNOME while the desktop is so smart and many features... I really tried so hard GNOME but the UI sucks, it is slower running games, there are missing options very important for me that KDE has, so for me GNOME is a NO for working/gaming purposes.
You can show ads without tracking and keeping users their right to privacy, right? I think it's different selling user data than having some ads on your website.
[...] Since I believed I'd disabled all possible sources of activity bar the actual loading of DuckDuckGo (html-only version - which is a tiny load), I thought I'd have a look round for some insight. I'd disabled the telemetry, the updater, the spell-checker, the "security protection"… And yet there was still this big spike of traffic on the computer's main network meter.
In truth I was probably going to uninstall anyway, but the unprompted activity was a final indication that Brave does not understand the meaning of privacy, or consent. [...]
The part of "there was still this big spike of traffic on the computer’s main network meter" claims that Brave Browser is not that private. And you can get the same level of blocking with better alternatives than claiming Brave to be a private solution.
I'm not going to do the research for you, I already read enough to know what Brave is, and I assume that's why you got that many downvotes on your main post here. If you want me to leave you in peace, don't reply.
If you read others comments, they explain why Brave is not a privacy Browser. You just need to use the good and open source addons for the chromium based alternatives that provide exactly the same or even better than Brave. Brave lies pretty much.
Well, every time we ask questions we waste many liters of water (and energy, which is more heat) when you could just use a search engine to find what scientists said 30 years ago. 😆
I would say it's almost the same, but you have less control of what your android is doing with the data it collects, I would go for https://e.foundation/e-os/ if you care about privacy. Instead Google Drive, you will use Nextcloud.
After testing many of the players mentioned here, I can say Strawberry is the number one. It has all I need.
