The direction Windows 11 is taking is terrible but i've tried on multiple occasions (even this morning!) to game and consume my content on Ubuntu or Fedora and i run into so much trouble, that ill have to stick with Windows 11. I have been using Ubuntu at work for the last 10 years though as web development is great on it.

Issues i have:

  • Lutris not finding GoG games
  • Heroic working, but not being able to sync savegames for GoG
  • Having installed GoG with Bottles and then the game itself works, but my framerate wasn't that great
  • Nvidia driver getting borked after kernel update, need to switch to old kernel, uninstall, switch to new kernel, reinstall
  • Mangohud flatpak not working together with Goverlay repo version
  • Need alternative for Synology cloud sync. Maybe Syncthing or rsync with SMB
  • And i need alternatives for fps limiting, undervolting and cpu undervolting. Haven't put enough time into it yet though
  • I like the mouse acceleration on Windows and in KDE both flat and adaptive feel pretty flat. Probably can be tweaked with xinput or something, but you can't configure the acceleration amount by default

Maybe one day, but for now Windows is probably just the better choice for me and gaming (on a laptop). At least in Windows 11 they now allow you to not group the taskbar by default..

A plastic screen? Doesn't that get scuffed up really easily?
