would consider myself very much a noob and I'm bumbling my way through it. Just kinda worked my way through it and pretty sure I broke my mint install a bit before hopping to EndeavorOS and will probably break this one before I'm done as well.

That is so bizarre to me. According to this article, Destiny 2 was already playable on Linux when it was officially ported to Google Stadia, and no one, not even Bungie, can explain why they won't support it on Linux or Steam Deck, much less ban a player for trying. That's crazy.

Yeah I have no idea either. From what I've seen online it's something to do with the anti cheat battleye but that runs on Linux so it's basically just them telling the Linux community to go pound sand.

Can't answer your question since it's not something I ever thought about but I recently, within the last 2 weeks, started the same thing. I tried Mint and EndeavorOS so far and honestly I probably won't leave EndeavorOS again. I installed it first. Confused the fuck out of myself because years ago I use Ubuntu so I had that like hard coded in me and couldn't get my head around arch. After playing with Mint for a week or so I'm back on EndeavorOS and I love it. I really really want to switch my main PC over but I have a Plex server and audio book shelf server running there as well as atleast 1 game that playing on Linux just isn't possible since Bungie will ban you for running destiny 2 on Linux.

I feel attacked.

I mean they can require it if they want. Apple would just bury the fact that it exists and would use something that's known to be shit. Idk how they could be forced to make iMessage cross platform.

As someone new to Linux the fact that I could just check a box on steam and suddenly I could install and run the witcher 3 blew my mind. I had no idea. Last I checked on Linux gaming the solution was install windows 😂

[–] Resolved3874@lemdro.id 1 points 2 years ago

Honestly no idea. I ended up switching over to EndeavorOS today so I need to get it set back up again. 😂

There is a windows theme in the Mint themer that looks like it is spot on to look just like windows. I love the look of linux over windows though so didn't try it.

I tried Endeavor for a bit before switching to Mint. May have just my me being to new to be jumping into Endeavor but I struggled and switch to mint within a couple days. was a beautiful distro though. Will probably jump back at some point since I'm running Linux on a spare PC right next to my main windows PC.

Rasies hand. Finally jumping back into Linux after years of Windows. Didn't really think of the gaming impact other than "so many games don't work on Linux so I can't use my main machine." I'm lucky enough to have 3 computers currently even though 1 of them is a third gen i7 and the other I got for free out of the trash so it's specs aren't great either. Enoug for me to install Endeavor then Mint to see how it goes gaming on them.

Got core control working. Did have to update something in the Kernel to get full control and access to stepping but it's working perfectly now.

Couldn't get that to work sadly. spent hours trying to build synergy on windows wasn't having luck and found barrier. Would start on windows just fine but the linux install would only start as a server for some reason. Ended up just buying Synergy since it's much cheaper than a hardware KVM.

Got it working. Thank you. Now if only it was as easy to compile and build apps on windows as it is on Linux I'd be set. I've spent the better part of the night trying to build synergy on my windows machine because I'm to cheap to just hand them money for the compiled version 😂
