@Liam
could we please have the "Latest Additions & Updates" on top of the whole list or just get a column of "Updated" in the main list to sort as well?

The best Linux distribution for gaming in 2025

my current OS for gaming is Tumbleweed and is the longest any distro has lasted me so far and I personally am very happy with it. I am very surprised that nowadays KDE seems to be the leading DE based on the comments.
I remember a time where it was avoided heavily in favor of gnome.

I've always been a fan of KDE even if its for wobbly windows alone.

Quoting: TharvasI hope we soon can choose audio inputs natively as with built in forced microphone recording it is rather annoying. it is fine for now as I mainly use it to record bugs or cheaters to send proof where sound is not needed but I don't think Valve intended this to be it's primary function.
Hmm, you could choose to record your microphone in one of the last betas. There was a checkbox toggle switch for it!
Was i missed was the option not to record default output. Example: whem i play with friends and have mumble (a voice chat client) in the background, they get recorded too.

good to know, I must have missed this toggle!
I agree about recorded audio though, it just makes sense that the game recording per default records the game only and not the whole desktop audio.

let's wait and see though.

it worked 50-50 for me.
having the recording directory set to a tempfs seems to crash the preview of the recording so you don't really know what you are clipping until you export it which was working fast and fine.

How do you like it? And how's the performance for you?

Haven't played a lot myself, just some training and bot fights.
performance is quite good, very fast and I can still adjust downwards if needed.

Who would have thought that a Microsoft Store exclusive title like SoT would be linux-certified one day. what a world we live in. since moving to linux I did not play it anymore, also because I only own the MS-version but not steam and currently I am not willing to rebuy the title.

QuoteWhat have you been playing recently?
Dark and Darker first and foremost, Dice & Fold, Dead by Daylight, Manor Lords, For the King (1), Overwatch 2

I hope there is an option to have the cached data in RAM if plenty to spare to not wear down and degrade the SSD too fast and only with the hotkey pressed the clip will be written to disk.
