You know, Linux is great. I love it. I run a lot of things on it. But it can be a frustrating experience. Simply put, its not a one to one replacement and it will simply not fit into some peoples lives like windows has up to this point.

My personal experience with linux desktops (some arch flavors and fedora) combined with Wayland and an Nvidia card have been pretty abysmal.
On prior Fedora’s and Endeavor, I had Firefox crashing constantly, no clue why. Crashes reduced this week with the release of Fedora 43 but its still not stable. This is something I’ve not experienced under windows ever since they rewrote firefox like… 10 years ago now?
With KDE plasma, its system apps like settings crash. I’ve not had to restart my PC with the physical restart button under windows for quite a while now. But when using KDE, the whole thing freezes and will just not respond.
I’ve tried playing some CS2 literally today and couldn’t make it through a match without a crash.
Vendor software for hardware devices (drivers) is missing linux support a lot of the time and while I appreciate open source alternatives, they just don’t cover the edge cases I had. As an example: razer rbg lighting effects stacking is non existent on linux. Open RBG works… but its not good enough.

I’m sooo ready to use KDE Plasma on a daily basis and really want to, but the stability I want is just not there yet. If you have simple use cases, don’t stray too far onto the edge, possibly have older hardware and don’t need Wayland or don’t use Nvidia, I’d definitely recommend it. I use Mint on my 14 year old laptop just fine, but its got an old ass nvidia card, uses x11 with cinnamon and I don’t game on it. Stable as a rock. I use Debian (headless) on my home server and it hasn’t crashed with a 3 year uptime.
Desktop linux on a gaming machine… I’ve just been disappointed.

Sorry for the dump. I’m voicing my frustration out of love for linux, not out of hate.

First thing that comes to mind, last game I played: Hades 2.

Matrix solved this with decentralization and federation. Don’t tell me its not possible.
