I run an RX6600 and haven’t had any freezing issues. Which version of Mesa and which games? If it’s all OpenGL games that would be rather strange.

I too met my wife on Omegle. It was in text chat. We were both around 14 years old at the time. I don’t remember what talked about but we ended up exchanging phone numbers. We texted for years and would sometimes play video games together.
Eventually towards the end of high school I was able to fly out to visit her. I did that a few times and was totally convinced at the point I was in love. So I moved across the country to be with her after graduation.
Married and few years ago and we’re 27 now so it’s been 13 years since we met on there. :)
As in via a product? Code itself isn’t worth much. It’s the stuff we make with it that has value.
You can use holo-iso. Hopefully they’ll make it official eventually.
SteamOS is really evolving into something incredible. Now that it supports HDR and VRR it has become one of the best gaming experiences imo. It’s the fine tuning of a PC alongside the ease of use of a game console.
I use an RX6600 and I can tell you that I get a lot of loss when compared to Windows too.
You should also mention which nvidia driver you’re running btw
I’ve found that it depends heavily on what game you’re playing. I wouldn’t say 20% loss is uncommon.
You could try using a kernel tuned for gaming but it probably won’t make up the difference.
Honestly you’re probably better off not comparing to Windows. You’ll often fall short performance and feature wise.
Edit: I’ve also found that people tend to oversell Linux. We desperately want more users but exaggerations do more harm than good.
AFAIK the pcie bandwidth difference from using gen 3 isn’t particularly noticeable. I’ve recently upgraded to a 6600 that I got for cheap and I would say it’s a pretty good card. The only problem is that performance varies a lot. Some games play well with it while others do not.
Same here. I liked their early content but it was obvious they crossed a line and everything new was driven by the dollar signs. If anything this GN video shows just how greedy Linus has become.
Uh no? You just need the latest kernel which you can install with one click it you use mainline. You’ll also want the latest version of Mesa which you can through Kisak’s PPA. It should take maybe 10 minutes. The average user is going to spend way more than 10 minutes installing and setting up Arch…
What kernel version are you on? Do you mean that you’re running AMD GPU pro?
I’ve found that Linux tends to be a much better experience with an AMD GPU. The nvidia driver is mostly fine but would regularly cause my desktop to crash.
Gnome and Pop OS. I only briefly tried Wayland but multiple games just failed to launch or would launch and then crash not launch again.
I’ve tried wayland but it seems like games often don’t work :(
Same experience here. I recently made the switch and love how so many regular annoyances disappeared.
For me it seems like games regularly fail to launch on Wayland but are fine with X. Did you try Gamescope?
Everybody is new to running Lemmy at scale. I suspect things will smooth out soon.
KDE Neon using X11 with latest stable kernel+Mesa.
