For me, the best distro is the distro that:
- first point and the most important in my eyes: it is a distribution that is forgotten, the fewest possible bugs, stable, secured, pleasant to use and on which I am productive.
- regularly maintained
- follow the standard so that when you install an application or game, its behavior is the same as that of another Linux distribution

And I'm using Ubuntu-like distros BTW ;)

Quoting: BasianiWorMzy

However, by buying a game that doesn't support Linux, you are sending the message to the dev that they don't need to support Linux to get your money. Why should that dev support Linux if you're going to give them money either way?

Thanks. You said what I wanted to say.
Looks like game developers are thinking "Why we support Linux, when Linux users have WINE/PROTON and they already are buying games from us. Yes, they have some pains to play our games but they don't care it so why we care them, why we support them?!"
Buying unsupported game sends game developers signal that you anyway paying of them. So they don't have reason to support Linux. No one makes games for supporting gamers, it's business.

You are an idealistic, but we saw that waiting for Linux native games does not work for AAA games.
Only indy makes the effort.
If Wine is the new standard to dev and play games on Linux, then it's ok for me.
All I want is to play on Linux.
I agree with you on one point: it's not normal we don't benefit game support when we buy this expensives games.
But you can still ask for a refund.

Buy a new PC with a SUPER config to play CP77 or play on cloud Stavia or GeforceNow?
Play on console? The game looks too cheap on PS4 and Xbox one.

Finally playing on cloud will hurt less my wallet.

A lot of people will think about upgrade their PC hardware cause CP77 needs very high PC configuration to obtain 60 fps

Quoting: WorMzyI'll wait for a native port. If the devs don't support Linux, then I don't support the devs.

Buying it on Steam is different, Valve invested a lot of dev time and money into gaming on Linux.
SO buying this game on Steam you support Proton and Valve Linux devs.

On a side note, this probably means Cyberpunk (Windows) won't be coming out with a Vulkan renderer either even though it's already working with it on Stadia... What a huge shame.

Are you sure that technically this is how it works on Stadia?

First time for a long time I would prefer to use a AMD graphic card.
I will wait for NVidia support.
Anyway it's an incredible news some Linux gamers could play a AAA games at his official sell date.

Let us know in the comments what distribution you're using if you have a Raspberry Pi and what you've been doing with it.

I mainly use a PI4 with Recalbox OS for retrogaming. A PI4 is so small in size, I can easily take it on vacation to play Mario Kart and other retro games with my little niece.

Quoting: slaapliedjeNice, do they support Linux better? (As in not having a broken Flatpak?)

I don't know as I prefer compile my own Dosbox builds to manage features.

Quoting: slaapliedjeDosBox-X does as well, but unfortunately you have to compile it yourself in Linux (unless maybe Arch has an PKGBUILD for it or something, I had to build it for Debian / Pop_OS) because the flatpak doesn't include some x11 libs, so menus don't work.

Dosbox ECE has far better 3DFX support than dosbox-x.
