Does this "open/proprietary driver" point still make sense?

Can you add amount of VRAM (separate from GPU model) ?

Quoting: axredneckImho Flatpak is not very suitable for things like Filelight, e.g. afaik flatpaked apps can't access a folder where flatpaks themselves are installed. I don't use flatpaked file managers for similar reasons.

There might be some cases where this is true, but in this case it works well as shown in the video, especially on Deck where you don't exactly have many writable places by default anyway.

Then at some point you will end up your Steam Deck full of orphaned Flatpak runtimes not even knowing they are there.

I tried Plasma+Wayland+Nvidia a week ago, and it has some glitches Plasma had on X a few years ago.

Quoting: silverhikarithis is exciting as i have a nvidia gpu and have been wanting to play older windows 7 games but they have the old standard resolution from those days causing them to appear in a small windows on a 1080 monitor. hopefully the scaling that comes with gamescope can help with that.

I thought Proton (not Wine) can "bilinearly" upscale them when these games are set to fullscreen. But yes, FSR would be better...

The white bit with the "carbon fiber" texture? yeah I did wonder why the 'quality' seems to double the size of the pattern not of the other seems to do that.

It is called "dithering", and unfortunately when you upscale image it upscales too, independently on FSR or bilinear on any other.

Now it looks like an alternative to DLSS !

Quoting: axredneckI mean more advanced techniques which not only remove ladders but try to reconstruct small details like wires.

You mean wires that turn up as visually disconnected pixel strings? You MUST use the technologies in question for that, AMD FidelityFX or Nvidia DLSS. That's pretty much what they are intended for.

How can i use them just for antialiasing (without upscaling) ?
(Especially for games that have neither DLSS/FSR nor antialiasing built in)
