Grayjay mobile is awesome, very much looking forward to checking this out. Love how it puts all my YouTube, Patreon, Twitch and Peertube content in one place.
Idk about amd laptops, but is there a possibility your computer was using integrated graphics in Windows, and Linux is using the dedicated GPU? How's your battery life changed?
I'm not sure what options you have friend, it's pick your poison either way. You're dependent on software vendors that support Microsoft, in turn you are equally dependent on Microsoft. That includes playing by their requirements, buying a motherboard or PC with a TPM chip and accepting ads in your user experience.
You could hack together a VM, or use WINE with the unsupported software. You mentioned you're not looking to tinker and desire something seamless - Maybe you'll have better luck than I did with Vegas, there's been a lot of improvements with WINE - but my experience was subpar from windows with this specific software.
A third option is to remove your dependencies on vendors that don't support Linux, and learn equivalents. Facing this similar fork, I chose to learn and replace Vegas with Davinci Resolve, and I haven't regretted it yet. But I also respect you have your workflow.
I rarely suggest anyone stick with windows, but the scenarios you've presented is exceptional.
Edit- additional note on the software concerns in W11, it's not that different from 10, like at all. I'm massively confident they will continue working without problem.
I've had Llama3 do this to me, it'll start repeating itself on guardrail topics like a bug, but you can tell it that it's acting insane and "snap out of it", and it will acknowledge that and ask to change the topic. Weird stuff.
If narrative driven games aren't your cup of tea there's nothing wrong saying that, but writing off the extensive gameplay provided in naughty dog games is silly. I think your take would be better directed at something like Metal Gear Solid, that actually locks you in for hour long non-interactive cut scenes.
I recently played uncharted 4, can confirm there is a lot of interesting gameplay mixed with the mastercrafted, often interactive, cut scenes. It was an excellent experience by any measure and the game is nearing 10 years old.
I swear people are confusing naughty dog with another dev or something, their worst game is still more fun than 90% of other studio's best.
