This is the only game I'm playing nowadays. Highly recommended.

I find it hard for KDE to come on top when the most popular distros default to Gnome, but you never know, things can change, and KDE's UI stability might help them in the end to become the biggest player. But even then, I doubt being the biggest will mean having a majority of the market share, I think it just means the KDE user base may fragment less than Gnome's user base.

Quoting: eldarionSo why are they not switching to KDE? Creating a good DE is no easy task and I don't think they have the means to do that or are they prepared to support it in the long run. I have zero expectations on this.

I bet someone in System76 tried Rust and loved it, so decided to start a project for the sake of using Rust.

Another nVidia Linux laptop. Sigh...

If only we have any decent Linux gaming laptops. The numbers could've been higher.

Quoting: inckieI'm never gonna buy a laptop from TUXEDO, simply because they are manufactured by Clevo.

Don't buy Clevo.

What's wrong with Clevo?

I'm using System76's Darter Pro, which is also a Clevo laptop. The build quality is close to garbage, but it otherwise works flawlessly.

Still no AMD dGPU option?! No thanks. I guess I'll have to wait for Intel Arc.

"But it would also run better if you format it and install Windows on it too."

What an idiotic comment!

As I mentioned in a previous post, successful Steam Deck means developers will start doing native ports, because that will simply be easier for them with more guaranteed results than going through Proton. The issue is just about deciding to properly support Linux rather than an issue of how difficult it is to do native ports. Native ports are definitely easier than using Proton if you are using an engine that supports Linux (like Unity or UnrealEngine)

If the Steam Deck is successful eventually developers will start producing Linux builds themselves, as it'll be easier to select Linux as a build target in your game engine than to produce a Windows build and run it through wine and try to investigate issues while an extra layer is sitting between your code and the OS.
The problem right now isn't that producing a Linux build is hard, it's actually easier than using Wine (if you are using a game engine with Linux support that is); the problem is that developers aren't interested in targetting Linux in the first place.
