Given that most people in need of a "which distro to pick" article are going to be on Nvidia, that's reason enough to not pick Fedora.

Counterpoint: I don't think the friction produced by not having immediate access to Nvidia drivers is that big you switch distros. In fact I'd say it's more beneficial than harmful. It grooms users into learning an absolutely basic and absolutely essential thing in Linux for newbies: package management. We can dumb Linux down all we want, but I think making people go through computing the Right Way when they come from Windows is important.

I do wish Fedora had a better reason for not including nvidia drivers (like mine above), than their empty illustrious %100 open source policy (also I'm pretty sure it's been fixed recently even on KDE).

I'm glad I picked Fedora when switching too. Other distros could be similar, I only ever tried a tiny bit of Mint and Pop_OS!, but I greatly appreciate how Fedora made me learn exactly what I think one should learn about a Linux system, nothing more, nothing less. Before switching I was a buffoon when it comes to PC, barely able to do basic stuff, and that wasn't for lack of trying, it's because windows is that bad in so many ways but most importantly it also discourages learning. Now, with Fedora (Linux), I actually feel quite comfortable with a computer despite my knowledge not being nearly as extensive as anyone who's really tech savy.

Quoting: 14Do any of the complainers explain what they want it to look like? Or is that a guessing game? I can't tell if people want it to look retro with higher resolution, or if they want it to look like Space Marine 2 fidelity.

Sure, here's a low effort example:

Speaking of Oblivion, here's another fun fact that I'm sure consoomers here will find to be 'fine' aswell. This Deus Ex 'remaster' has the same GPU recommended system requirements as Oblivion remake.

Quoting: PyrateStatements like these are one of the reasons why we'll never get game as good as Deus Ex again.

Ehh... come on now; you know that's a wild exaggeration.

I said one of, not the only reason out there.

Quoting: LinasThe style was fine. Also, you can just play the original, if you prefer that. Some people just need to complain about everything.

Consumerism. The 'remaster' looks genuinely worse than the original game from the year 2000. Also it costs (more) money, of course people will be critical.

Statements like these are one of the reasons why we'll never get game as good as Deus Ex again.

This is positive news, you'll now get a better product due to the feedback.

Quoting: mylkahow much is VALVE contributing?
since the steam deck and soon steam machine,

The Frame uses Plasma too !

Quoting: GerarderloperTechnically Valve don't use Plasma, its just a fallback DE which they could use GNOME or anything else.

SteamOS is built with Plasma, it's not a fallback, its their desktop DE of choice.

A rather clever name, must say.

What I can't figure out is how stagnant the budget wireless headset market is. It has been the case for like 3 years now that the Logitech G435 is the best (also the only) option at the given price range. It's as if the other brands don't even intend to compete in this sector, leading to the G435 occasionally having erratic price hikes; I got the better one G535 off Currys for 55 quid, no sale, just the regular price at the time. Then a couple years later I found the worse one G435 for 60 quid in the same retailer. Strange.

Started and funded 7 years ago ?

They're two steps ahead.

Thanks for clearing that up! ;)

No, seriously: Thanks both for your opinions!

It honestly comes down to how you view these things, if you consider them as a work of art or as mass produced fastfood-tier entertainment.
