6·7 months agoPerformance and stability seems to be at the same level it was under windows 10/11. Can’t say nothing about standard compliance, nor do I really care in the end.
I’m kinda sure I wasn’t missing functionality, either. Then again, my card is old GTX, so DLSS not working is not because of drivers.
ETA: Hibernation requires swap space. Yes, swap file is viable alternative to partition, but I already had a swap partition, albeit too small. Even with partitioning aside, enabling hibernation is tedious compared to windows, where it’s literally ten clicks, five with keyboard and five with mouse. And on linux it requires a lot of “rooting around”.
Surprisingly enough, nvidia drivers turned out to be the easy part.
For background, my first linux was debian in late 90’s. I went through gentoo to ubuntu, until I got mac for work about a decade ago. By then my home rig was single booting windows.
So, given my history with debian, I started with ubuntu, only to realize I don’t like its current state. Next up was pop_os, because it’s heavily recommended for gaming. After some time I came to conclusion, that everything I know about linux on desktop is badly outdated, so I might as well go heavy and try arch. I chickened out, though, and went with manjaro. It’s actually quite nice, save for that hibernation.
Normal users are not going to root around in the registry and twiddle things to mske the OS treat them with respect.
I absolutely agree with you, and this statement is absurd, given the context.
Recently I decided to try out gaming with linux. What was planned to be a weekend project turned into multiweek project, and it included a lot of “rooting around” to get things working the way I wanted them to. Maybe it’s linux treating me with respect, when I have to start planning for hibernation when I’m partitioning the drive. Maybe it isn’t.
(Aside, Valve has done great work with proton. It’s time to reconsider, if games are keeping you from switching over.)
I almost got a bingo by checking off things I’ve muttered to myself.
Seems you’re not the only one, as some cargo pants have “smart phone pockets”. I’ve a pair of those, and at least iPhone 12 Pro fits.
Can’t remember the first airline proper, but my first flight was with a bush pilot. Old, well beaten floatplane, the first leg of our trip. Took a week to walk back, stopping to fish on every lake along the way.

Not OP, but I kinda agree with them.
Teams are abstract, it’s easier to project your own ideals on to them. Not completely unlike respecting the office, even if loathing the politician currently holding it. It becomes “our thing”.
Also teams have longevity, or at least potential for longevity. Where I live, the two major local ice-hockey teams are founded in 1928 and 1967. There are families with generations of fans. Athlete’s career could be over in a decade.
