    The problem comes when you talk about gaming.

    You can talk about proton and such all you want.

    At the end of the day can I come home from work install some new game I want to play and probably have it just work, without feature compromises…

    One day maybe, but not yet.

      Kinda my gaming experience on Linux right now.

      For most games, I install them and they just run perfectly fine.

      There are a few games that still need tweaks, though, that is true.

        It’s more stuff like, does ray tracing and stuff like nvidia broadcast work?

        Like I use that to filter all my incoming sound from discord and all the audio coming into my microphone.

        It’s the oddball features like that example above where Linux always falls over for me.

        Don’t get me wrong I HATE windows.

        I really really hope that steam os on the steam deck is going to maybe push devs to make more native Linux releases.

          I see; I don’t personally use those tools, so can’t tell you anything about it.

          Hope they’ll be included soon, one way or the other, if they aren’t!

          Thanks for your feedback.

          Ray tracing works, but Nvidia broadcast itself doesn’t work. There are other projects out there like NoiseTorch that do a really good job at filtering audio.
