Just because you can doesn’t mean you should!

Wasn’t criticizing the switch. I’m all on Linux as well, it’s just that’s it’s probably a misleading number

Pretty sure 80% of them are just people distro hopping, we know the Linux community 😂

I agree. I run Heroic as well, but it’s not as straightforward for most people. GOG should at least redirect Linux people to Heroic or something. Having to find it by myself isn’t great

Have an official tutorial for the normies

I have contacted some of them and what they said was often: GOG’s tools suck, their support team suck…

I don’t know how a company could fuck this up so I take it as is, and don’t fully trust it, but they haven’t improved their store in years

Low prices end GOG ? Yea nah, not really. Sorry but their UI is kinda shitty, hasn’t improved in years, they don’t have a client of Linux, they take 30% just like Steam, and from my experience easily 25% of recent games there get updates far later than Steam, if they ever receive them… The Escapists is a good example of that.

As someone who used to get sick in cars and boats, I got it, so you might as well

If the technology interests you, then sick or not, you’ll probably like it. Won’t play every day, but it’ll be a nice experience.

Start with games with not a lot of motion (beat saber for example), then move to more intensive games. You’ll get sick after 15mins, then 20mins, then 25… until you last for a couple hours, and at this point you’ve built your resistance.

Just stop playing when you feel sick and try again an hour later when you feel better or a few days later

But yea, VR isn’t straightforward or an obvious purchase. It requires time and will, and money, obviously

It’s clearly a luxury and you need to have too much money or be really motivated to purchase it

Also given how common it seems to be anecdotally to get sick from it, no one wants to jump in just to have to jump back out.

you can build a resistance to it. It takes time, and it was the case for me

Well… you just said no software works. They’ve given you counter examples, now you either have to cite examples of software not working with screen sharing or you’re the fool

Who cares about your invented god? Let people speak however they want

Thanks, I’ll watch this

That works if you have a correct sleep schedule… this feature only enabled like 20 times in my life, and half the time it disabled itself because I used my phone during the night

We always want better :)

Well, if they realize the problem and do nothing to fix it and don’t advertise this problem, it ends up being a less worse type of planned obsolescence, but it’s still planned obsolescence imo

More like unplanned obsolescence but it’s a convenient problem so we plan on it happening

Those bros aren’t your bros

I meant @Axolotl_cpp@lemmy.ml

Thanks for the additional infos!

Here is the protonfixes repo for reference: https://github.com/Open-Wine-Components/umu-protonfixes

Someone might want to ping that .ml user, since I’m instance banned from there, they won’t be able to see my answer

So 60% for top 10?

You’re the exception

Most people play the same 3 FPS games that don’t run on Linux. They’re probably not the type of people that would use Linux but hey, some might

From their readme:

Things it contains that Valve’s Proton does not:

• Additional media foundation patches for better video playback support
• AMD FSR patches added directly to fullscreen hack that can be toggled with WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1
• FSR Fake resolution patch details here
• Nvidia CUDA support for PhysX and NVAPI
• Raw input mouse support
• ‘protonfixes’ system – this is an automated system that applies per-game fixes (such as winetricks, envvars, EAC workarounds, overrides, etc).
• Various upstream WINE patches backported
• Various wine-staging patches applied as they become needed
• NTSync enablement if the kernel supports it.
