You have to use the proprietary driver with GTX 1000 series cards and older to get good performance. 900 and 1000 series cards are cucked with no re-clocking on nouveau because they require signed firmware.
can sometimess not even respect your gtk/qt theming
sandboxing/permission system can lead to you trying to figure out which directory you need to give access to when you want to save file if it wasn't preconfigured
uses its own libraries and not system libraries, want to play the hit new AAA game with steam flatpak? get fucked it requires a mesa commit that was merged 8 hours a go and you're stuck on 23.0.4 and can't use the git release.
Flatpak probably has it's specific uses like trying to use one piece of proprietary software that you don't trust and don't want to give it too much access to your system, or most GUI software clients having an easy way to install Discord on your Steam Deck (no terminal usage, Linux is easy yay), but native packages 99% of the time work better.
In terms of plug and play, using KDE Plasma, trying to mount USB NTFS drives with Dolphin fails because udisks2 needs a new release with an NTFS patch so you'll need to mount those using the terminal (and possibly a umask argument that I can't remember off the top of my head if you want r/w access instead of read-only). Internal drives that are NTFS worked by clicking on them with no extra steps required surprisingly. This was with a newer kernel that has the ntfs3 driver and not using ntfs-3g fuse driver which also 'just works' but is slower.
I am trying to choose between buying a Nintendo Switch or a Nintendo DS.
Last time I checked a Nintendo DS is nowhere near as expensive as a Nintendo Switch, you could probably get both unless you only have $300 in your bank account.
*5 years to make a AAA over the shoulder cinematic experience that has to appeal to investors who dont play video games and the lowest common denominator
Can it run Crysis Remastered?
