EEE...

I wonder how hard it would be to port the linux driver to windows

How much do you think de-googled GrapheneOS with FLOSS-only apps would help?

Fun fact: NieR:Automata is the sole reason DXVK (a huge source of Proton's performance) exists. The avatar for it on github (or its developer) is fanart of 2B

This probably meets some extreme corporate usecase where they are serving millions of customers.

They're not "good enough" - they dont provide the same comfy UI/UX that google maps and organic maps does. And organic maps is offline, so literally no data harvesting.

Oh. Im on KDE and it runs great there. I think you could probably port the game to use libadwaita as a fork if you wanted

Third party launchers are the LAST thing we need, and would provide no benefit that the game itself doesn't already provide.

Minecraft needs launchers because of the lack of built-in mod support and the fact that its closed source. Minetest is the opposite of these things.

My point is you are grossly oversimplifying software and how hard it is to actually write something like an office clone

software to edit documents isnt complicated

Write me a function to generate a Pivot Table with all of the features from Excel, from scratch

People like you disgust me. You intentionally ignore the root of the problem and instead direct your frustration and blame at the victim of said problem.

You absolutely should not be blaming Linux for this, this is the HDMI forum's fault.

I too would rather have an F-droid version instead of having to use Obtainium. There is additional inherent trust by going through F-droid's process.

Having a literal AI strapped to a physical controller (wires soldered to button contacts and so on), with a camera that watches the TV and plays for you is already a thing and cant be stopped except via serverside anticheat

Back your settings up and restore them then.

Sapphire 7900xtx Nitro+, and 3x performance boost PLUS far more stable frametimes at the same framerates

Just got this card as an upgrade to my 5700xt. It is so good, and REALLY pretty.

People who talk about it like this are people who probably value a few things:

• learning (in general)
• self-improvement
• deep understanding over their system
• control over their belongings
• trust/safety in their system

DIY distros naturally provide these things by forcing you to go through their manual install process.

Think about it like how Goku always finds ways to get stronger and better at what he does by sheer effort.

Its basically the difference between buying a consumer car with automatic transmission and self-driving vs putting together a kit car that has manual stick shift.

Ubuntu and fedora and the like, like the modern consumer car, just does everything for you with little hastle. But you might not know anything about how it works and have to call a mechanic to fix it.

Arch and Gentoo and the like, like kit cars, give you granular control over your system, can sometimes be a lot more powerful, is tuned to your specific needs, and most importantly: you learn. You will rarely if ever have to call the mechanic because you know how to just go in and rip and replace or tweak the faulty part.

You can obviously learn to work on your consumer car and start tuning and tweaking it, but you're not fully in charge.

There are different usecases for different people. For the people who like Arch, installing everything yourself is a value-add, to us it means the system gets out of our way. You set it up one time and it just works.

I put together my install over 6 years ago and have had to do next to no maintenance since then with regular updates.

Dude I literally addressed your concern in my post by saying its not for everyone. You are deliberately choosing to ignore that part in order to fulfill your own agenda, or because you just want to be cranky about something (or maybe both). Have you had your morning coffee yet?

I suppose that for an automatic out-of-box experience this is true and probably what most users want, but again if you're savvy (which I recognize is not the case for most users, making Arch not viable for everyone), Arch is equally hardware-compatible and with the AUR even moreso in some cases. There is no automatic driver installer on Arch, but that's because there is no automatic anything installer - you're expected to research and maintain it yourself (which is excellent for learning linux by the way).
