I must admit I'm rather surprised by the replies I'm seeing on here. I'm not a fan of Nintendo's fondness for litigation and threatening folks with legal action by any means, but I think people are misunderstanding what's happening here. If they're taking down fanart, then yes, they're on shaky ground at best, but if it's official box art, renders, anything like that (and speaking as a Canadian, not a lawyer), they own that and they may very well be within their right to request it be removed.
As for the article title suggesting that they are doing this specifically because of people emulating their titles on the deck, while that may perhaps be case, it's a little presumptive. I'd imagine someone on their legal team came across it while looking for something to justify their continued employment and they jumped on it.
That being said, this is just my two cents, make of it what you will. :smile:

I don't necessarily hate what I'm seeing, but I am rather weary of some of the stuff they're advertising. Seeing a (seemingly) paid battle pass mentioned, paid and free character packs, etc. are red flags for me these days. I want to hope it would be good, but this feels like a bigger gamble than most Kickstarter projects I've backed in the past.
Sorry Arch (EndeavourOS), it's not working out any more and hello Fedora

Quoting: TuxeeI actually initially started with Manjaro KDE, and while I liked the environment well enough, the performance wasn't what I had been hoping for, and worse, presumably due to some mistake in how I had done things in setting the installer up to split my drive to dual boot Windows and Linux, I ended up having to wipe the entire drive. A learning experience, at least, and after correcting a mistake with how I initially installed Nobara, I've had no issues with it that I didn't have with Manjaro, all of which I was able to work through with the assistance of a more experienced friend, and I find the performance much better, with and without launch arguments for individual games. I do appreciate the input though!Quoting: JustinWoodAs someone very new to all things Linux, I ended up landing on the recently released Nobara Project by Glorious Eggroll. Sounds like it simplifies some of the on-boarding versus traditional Fedora spins. https://nobaraproject.org/ [External Link]Well, when you are new to Linux I would definitely stick to one of the mainstream distros like Fedora, Mint, Manjaro or Ubuntu. You will inevitably run into "problems" (probably not problems per se, but things that are just... different) and having forums and documentation for your distribution (and not just a "quite similar one") helps tremendously.
Small edit: That being said, it's not my daily driver. I've got a drive reserved for it to run games that have better performance on Linux, particularly but not limited to Elden Ring currently.
