It’s the heavy graphics used which looks like it uses WebGL and this is disabled in LibreWolf since it can easily be used for fingerprinting a user. It would be great if they could not use such heavy graphics if WebGL is not supported and just used simple static image or something like that. Well it would be great in general not just for privacy reasons.
From my experince AMD drivers are pretty close, I’d even say slightly better on GNU/Linux, definitely more stable and consistent. For Nvidia, yeah they are bad at supporting GNU/Linux. Improved a lot through the years but still not there. For Intel, well not exactly an option for gaming, at least not the integrated GPUs I have used so far, but still better than in Windows in a similar way as in AMD case.
P.S. Another great thing with libre/opensource GNU/Linux drivers: When you report a bug with Mesa3D drivers the bug is quite quickly fixed, especially when you can provide them with backtrace and/or Vulkan/OpenGL API trace. Doing a bisect of source code commits amd identifying the commit that introduced a regression also help a great deal. Good luck doing the same with closed/Windows drivers: you can wait for years and no fix.
It’s totaly messed up in general and has been for a long time. They try to hack it for the new CPU model and stab you in the back for older CPUs, I’d say it is FUBAR.
Or they just found out that Windows process scheduler is still broken beyond repair. If you look at the benchmarks on GNU/Linux performance is all there. For example see Phoronix benchmark
Yeah I am so glad I switched to GNU/Linux years ago, Have to keep supporting closed OSes at work with our software and with each release they are just getting worse and worse, while GNU/Linux just keeps getting better.

One way of greatly improving ROCm installation process would be to use the Open Build Service which allows to use the single spec file to produce packages for many supported GNU/Linux distributions and versions of them. I opened a feature request about this.
No wonder. all GAFAM is a spyware surveillance capitalism mafia and they work together. If you really want to THINK different you need to look into libre and opensource software like GNU/Linux and the likes.
So not even with setting the Width option to Fill Width and Style with disabled Floating option? (see this picture for refeence)
Yeah I hear good things about qemu. Will really have to reserve some time to learn it some day. And just for kicks I have just tried and installed KDE Neon into VirtualBox too, and damn I am actually surprised how fast Plasma runs under it, definitely faster than Plasma 5 did. Another job well done :)
Yeah also don’t like the dock, but with KDE Plasma at least you can make it full width as it is so nicely customizable. VM, oooo I wonder how it will run there, I guess it will be quite slow, at least Plasma 5 was a lot slower in VB for me than later on real hardware, so it might not be well representative.
Good. If only that spyware would stay down forever.
I miss this too. It should be possible because it is shown in the Audio System Settings. There is also a bug open for this improvement: 453629 – Show full window titles on Applications tab, as the KCM does
No thanks. We don’t need more closed and bloated spyware, what we need is more open and privacy respecing OSes like GNU/Linux and devices using it like Steam Deck.

Yup very bloated spyware
The main point to know is if you do not encrypt it with keys generated localy on your machine and encrypt it locally, then you can not be sure it really is E2E encrypted. If a corporation does it for you with their keys they can ready anything so this kind of E2E is more or less marketing bullshit and Apple is guilty of this too.
Straight from the old Big Tabacco playbook of traps. Give away free stuff to get you addicted while in school and then when you are out they start profiting on your bad habbit you are hard to get rid off. Better to use software that is free for ever and even better if it is also free as in freedom and opensource.
Oh how I wish those TV manufacturers would get rid of HDMI and replace it with DisplyPort. HDMI mafia does not allow opensource implementations of HDMI specification and so not all latest features of it can be supported by graphics card drivers on GNU/Linux. Death to HDMI!
