Quoting: PublicNuisanceThe issue I take with that is when people give GOG flak for not supporting Linux (even though they sell Linux games on their store) but then hand over money to other people who also don't support Linux and somehow want to act like it's different
GOG mislead Linux users by stating their intention for a dedicated client and then not keeping their word.
I don't want GOG to "support Linux". I want them to keep their word and give Linux users convenience, like Valve does. After all we pay for the games, we're not asking for favours.

Quoting: PublicNuisancedo you buy Windows games on Steam ?
If they work fine with Proton yes, as they are counted by Valve as Linux purchases.

A Linux build will also be up on GOG "soon".
This is one of the reasons I don't buy on GOG.

System76 announce COSMIC, their own GNOME-based desktop environment for Pop!_OS

Gnome is designed by geeks to, well, geeks.
That's why so many extensions rapidly developed; to make it, well, normal. So that, well, normal people would be able to use it.
That's why so many Distros pick Xfce as their default DE like Manjaro, MX linux, Lite; because, well, it's a normal environment.
System 76 should have chosen an established Distro and tweak it here and there, instead of that washed down lollipop, so things would look, well, normal.

I don't think it makes sense that higher resolutions (at the same 60 fps) demand higher CPUs; shouldn't it demand higher GPUs/vram/ram only? Higher fps, yes, that can tax the CPU too.
