Sounds like you didn’t set the resolution on gamescope. gamescope -w 1920 -h 1080 -W 1920 -H 1080 -f -- %command%

this doesn’t work sadly, I tried it already. it’s not the act of tabbing out that causes it, it’s the fact the window loses focus which is still done with borderless

gamescope should work.

It’s in the article. Each different version you maintain is an additional strain and added cost. It’s why applications are increasingly moving towards web versions.

Opening the phone to other app stores is just the first step. The second is letting the user choose an app store when they first start their phone similarly to how they already enforce browser choice.

Yeah… no, they already have access to all that. It’s the good ol’, if it’s gonna happen anyways might as well get behind it and get some good PR.

They also stay pretty current with the kernel and many other packages.

I guess that’s better than nothing, that doesn’t make it a rolling release though. It’s an unstable point release that got half-stuck in the past until they get their cosmic shit together.

Tried the iso in a VM, gnome is still very much on version 42. They obviously abandoned shop to focus all their resources on their shiny new DE.

Hard to recommend a distro that hasn’t seen a new release in over 3 years.

I’ve installed fedora thrice last year, and each time, I’ve had to enable rpm fusion in the terminal and download ffmpeg to get youtube to work. This is something that can’t be fixed afaik, because it’s a copyright issue.

At some point you need start cutting stuff or nothing happens and you’re the one still maintaining the 32 bit packages 15 years later.

There’s plenty of different solutions, but anything that isn’t what people already have is gonna upset.

It’s one of those changes that will happen sooner or later, bazzite and steam need to figure out a solution because fedora, and other modern distros can’t and won’t keep dragging around 32 bit libraries forever.

Fedora doesn’t enable non free repositories by default, and that’s a big deal for new users. Telling someone they need to run commands in the terminal to get their nvidia drivers, or even get youtube working is a problem.

Even if it’s out of beta for 26.04, you’ll probably want to wait a few releases before giving it a go. It’s bound to be quite unstable for a few years.

There’s always plenty of good reasons to postpone something and only one to do it now.

Getting mods working for games

Yeah mods can be quite troublesome.

If you use a hard drive other than your os install drive then you need to go to the steam website to get the installer and not use the one in the built in app store.

Sounds like a steam problem.

Non gaming related I’ve had numerous issues trying to manage permissions for my hard drives

Eh, i remember mounting being a bit troublesome a few years back, but current GNOME should take of that for you with very little input on your end. This brings us to PopOS 22 which is starting to get really old at this point, I’d consider moving away to something that’s not left abandoned while they finish up Cosmic.

Setting up dual boot takes like an hour. But yeah, there’s no rush to it, linux will still be there tomorrow. I don’t recommend buying a new pc and changing OS at the same time though. You don’t want to test your new hardware on a system you’re not familiar with.

I was thinking of doing that once I get my new pc.

Why wait? Hard drives don’t have compatibility issues, and you can always just use clonezilla to copy and paste the system to a new NVME SSD later on if you like.

As for the VM it’d probably be better the other way around, gaming on VMs is not that great an experience and gpu passthrough is complicated to setup.

Games having access to everything i do on my pc is sheer lunacy. Let the devs sanitize their fucking inputs and not give client information the player shouldn’t have access to. Anti cheat has always been an arms race, nothing, and that does include your kernel anti cheat, will ever completely stop cheaters.
