Which is why I ask people one simple question: do they plan to game. If they plan to game, I don’t recommend them Mint. If they aren’t, I recommend them Mint.
I think you meant to answer OP.
Indeed. Nouveau simply does not have the gaming performance of Nvidia’s proprietary driver.
Are you into gaming? If not, then it is perfectly fine to run the nouveau driver.
Many people are not activists like Richard Stallman. Perhaps it’s better to run libre software, but it’s perfectly reasonable to also run proprietary software.
For example, I switched to Linux when I could run proprietary games on Proton.
Why? You bought the games. It’s like going to the store, buying a bunch of clothes, and realizing after a few months that you don’t want them anymore. They cannot be returned.
Yup. Cyberpunk is often on sale, but I always ask myself if I can really play it when I’m in the middle of other games.
Which why nowadays, even during the mighty deals periods, I don’t buy games anymore. Right now, I’m focusing on finishing games I already own.
This post does not belong here. This is not a post about technology.
I’m using Manjaro. Firefox is the distro’s default browser.
For me, VRR is crucial as I play a lot of FPS games or else, I don’t feel that the mouse is the extension of my hand. That’s why I switched from Gnome to KDE.
In KDE, I agree. I have an AMD video card and I’ve been gaming in KDE Wayland for quite a while now.
Yup, this is huge. Wayland gaming is now a possibility. With Explicit Sync (needed for NVIDIA users) and VRR, there’s now no excuse to keep gaming in X11 in both DEs.
Nonsense. This is huge, as I suspect many people, like myself, switched to KDE because it was the DE that was perfect for gaming in Wayland.
So this is huge for the community! Gaming is now possible in two of the most popular and used DEs.
As for the weather application. Don’t blame GNOME, blame the weather provider (OpenWeather).

Excellent explanation. Thank you
Voyager. It’s an Apollo like client.
It’s all about getting users to buy new PCs that can run the AMAZING AI! (I’m being sarcastic here). It’s good for AMD and Microsoft’s pockets.
One theory some analysts say is that since Macron’s second term ends in 2027, and since it’s his last, if the FN doesn’t govern well, then his party might be able to win again.
Basically, they’re saying that Macron is playing a dangerous game of chess.
You can always use Endeavour OS. It’s Arch with a nice installer and some utilities already installed to make it easier to use and maintain. It uses Arch repositories, so for all intents and purposes, it is Arch. Manjaro is not.
