Just like migrating from Reddit to Lemmy it’s the same as migrating from Windows to Linux, there’s shortcomings and learning curve and the more I use Lemmy the more I hate about Windows, because unlike reddit Lemmy is open source and open source softwares communities is more popular than proprietary communities and people like to shit on them (and I loved it). (Sorry for horrible English)

    That is impressive, as that was not my experience at all. I installed nobara since I use my computer for 90% games and 10% Photoshop. Dragons dogma 2 would continuously crash on launch, Hades 2 ran at 25 fps and required like half an hour of troubleshooting to figure out it was somehow using my onboard graphics so I manually had to disable that, and kingdom come deliverance played perfectly… Until I tried to fast travel and it instantly crashed every time.

    Unfortunately, it just seems like Linux is not the answer for me. At this point in my life I just want things to work and not spend 45 mins+ trying to figure out why my $2k computer isn’t working. I’m a blue collar guy so have absolutely 0 experience in programming which to me kinda seems like prerequisite if you do anything more than using Firefox.

      I haven’t used Nobara so I can’t say for sure, but I feel Debian distros have overall more compatibility with drivers than redhat ones, and mint and Ubuntu is way older and has a bigger community, so Id probably just go with Ubuntu instead of Nobara despite Nobara being the “gaming Linux”. Installing nvidia drivers, wine, and proton is after all just esentially downloading the deb files, run, and you’re done.
