Correction, Proton is Valve's fork of Wine, that is made to support a wide variety of games, and is the reason they could do Linux on the steam deck.

[@ID10T_ERROR_]

Ahh... I see

[@YorranKlees]

Well it is more than a fork of Wine: for each game, Proton manually gets the set of specific resources needed, will download and install them for each game you install via this method. That is up to the editor's choice to make a custom script just for Proton, if I'm not mistaken.

[@ID10T_ERROR_]

Hmm... Interesting

[@TopiasSalakka]

What's really doing the heavy lifting in Proton is something called DXVK. All it does is translate Direct3D calls to Vulkan, it's so simple but so effective. If it didn't exist, Proton wouldn't exist...

[@luminatrixfanfiction]

@@ID10T_ERROR_ Steam ProtonDB is a game changer. You can now play any windows game and it can run just about 98 percent of all steam games. Just be sure to update to the latest version and it'll do its magic. Proton also allows you to launch bioware games and the bioware launcher simultaneously, but you can only do that via purchasing the bioware games via steam and installing it. The trick is to use "Proton Experimental" for the first time after each game install and launch for the first time. After that, switching to latest Proton version which I believe is Proton 9.0-2

remember fellas, if the game has kernel level anticheat, dont touch that game.

[@ID10T_ERROR_]

Truing lmao

[@revapz]

Why tho?

[@linuxsquare]

​@@revapzDisclaimer: This is my understanding of how a Kernel level Anticheat works, might contain misinformation. A Kernel Level Anticheat (KLA, or Level-0 AntiCheat) is different from "regular" AntiCheat like EAC or BattlEye. The "regular" AntiCheat only runs, while the software is running, protecting the software from third-party mods/cheats, which alters the softwares code. A Level-0 anticheat (referred to as a KLA) works differently, as it is running as a System-Service on your device, no matter if the game is running or not (it gets started on the OS-Boot). This allows the KLA to monitor low-level cheats, which alter the softwares reserved memory space. Since the KLA is running as a system service, injecting into the memory space of the software is hardly possible. (I don't say it's impossible, there may be ways to go around, but hardly). To pass around a KLA, it is possible to use so-called "offline-cheats". Seperate hardware, which analyze the memory-space before the KLA triggers on a different machine. This however is more expensive, since you need additional hardware and a deep understanding of how a computer works. While many gamers don't care about a KLA, since "It just works", the KLA could be used by the company to additionally collect data of you. Since many users already use Windoze and use the phrase "I don't have anything to hide", those users don't care, if their data is being collected and sold. But if you value your privacy, stay away from games with a KLA (and best from Windoze).

As both linux and windows user i can agree to the things mentioned. However, theres a couple things you need to know more about linux, linux is like your own operating system, you have full control but might aswell be careful, things can break here an there, and theres always a way to fix it. But if you value your time and want something that just works fine everytime, well i think its better for you to stick with windows. Linux does works fine, but sometimes in some occasion it breaks, it happens, so prepare yourself for it.

If you value your time use Windows is hilarious to me. But I’ve been working in IT for more than a quarter of a century. Let’s just say: You’re mileage may vary, wildly.

[@its-yayo-yayito]

I'm a Debian user, Debian is by far more stable than Windows since the Debian project prioritizes stability over new software

[@davidkachel]

I am currently running both KDE Neon and MInt flavors of Linux on 9 different machines, for the last several years. No breaks, not ever. Every time I boot into Windows, it starts making demands and wasting my time. I settled that machine's hash yesterday. Installed KDE Neon on it. Now I have no annoying Windows boxes.

[@mo4tal]

We've been debating for years that Linux is superior. The real issue, in my opinion, is that major companies like Adobe and Riot are simply, yes, foolish, and they HATE LINUX. Additionally, engineering companies like Autodesk don't fully support Linux. People tend to prioritize their money, comfort, and gaming experiences over their privacy. Instead of telling people, "Switch to Linux! The time has come!" it would be much more effective to explain how they can do what they currently do on Windows using Linux. After this post, I don't want to be seen as a Windows supporter. I am, in fact, a strong advocate for Linux, but we can't reach a solution by ignoring the facts. We must accept reality and work to improve it. We need to push application developers to support Linux. The Linux market needs less fragmentation, more widespread application repositories, more stable releases, and more standardized file formats so that a developer doesn't have to create software for Debian, Debian-based distributions, Red Hat, Red Hat-based distributions, Arch-based distributions, and so on. For instance, the "yay" package manager in Arch is very useful. Similarly, "apt" in Debian is extensive and relatively easy to use. What I'm trying to say is that starting a big Linux revolution with a common package installer across all Linux distributions could grant people freedom. Linux already meets your needs in every way. If you're not satisfied with a package manager, you can change it later. It's your computer, so only you can decide what's best for it. And please, don't tell me why these package managers don't work on other distributions. I know that. I'm not suggesting we make the 'yay' library work perfectly on Ubuntu or every other distribution. What I'm saying is that, even if it means creating a new package manager, we need one that works optimally across all distributions. This way, people will be less fearful and more free when choosing a distribution. As I mentioned earlier, this package manager should be replaceable if desired. This might seem contrary to the Linux philosophy, but think about how we can improve. Even if you argue that this isn't the issue, admit that someone willing to give up all Windows applications might still be confused when they can't apply what they learned on Arch to Debian and have to start a new learning process. This is completely inefficient. Furthermore, before recommending Linux, you should advise people to practice in a virtual machine to prevent data loss on their systems. Most Linux distributions don't limit you in ways that Windows might. Instead, when you say, "Hello, Linux, let's wipe my system," the response will be, "Just become root." Moreover, a wrong command can damage your drivers because you have the power to modify them. When you talk about the expansiveness and customizability of Linux, you must also mention its potential downsides. In short, my personal view is that in these times of high computer illiteracy, which is unfortunately normal (though it shouldn't be), if these people switch to Linux, they'll likely slow themselves down, reduce their capabilities, and mess up their systems. Before blaming Microsoft, we should look in the mirror and ask why so many mistakes are made and why, despite these issues, Windows remains the most popular operating system for personal use worldwide. We need to understand why people prefer Windows and work on correcting our mistakes.

[@mo4tal]

By the way, when I said in my comment 'It would be much more effective to explain how they can do what they currently do on Windows using Linux,' I meant, for example, you mentioned Wine but didn't talk about how to install it or any additional settings. I'm not saying you should do that, by the way; I think your video was highly unnecessary. Telling people to switch to Linux for a feature in Windows is clearly disrupting their work and comfort. How can we invite them to Linux when it's not providing a 100% benefit and might even cause harm? This makes us look bad and breaks trust in our community. Lastly, telling people to switch to Linux by giving up some applications and accepting alternatives is also damaging to the community. This should be acknowledged.

@@KrypteiaXi I mean, I totally agree about it being way easier to break things (a consequence of actually having control over your system unlike with windows) as I did so very quickly in the first few days of switching, and I also has issues with ubuntu/fedora etc drivers and outdated packages. "Shit nvidia support" isn't technically correct, as it's not linux that doesn't support nvidia, it's nvidia that doesn't put the same work into their drivers for linux as they do for windows. This has improved a lot recently. Dunno if i would say that Macos is a 'real' OS though and that Linux isn't. I've had a macbook pro 16" since 2019 as my daily driver for work, study and entertainment and although there are some things I like, MacOS still has heaps of issues that are very frustrating, at least for my workflow/usecase. For example, if your system is getting too hot, instead of just throttling your cpu to drop the temps (like everything else does) MacOS has an empty process that eats up your entire cpu to forcibly steal resources from other processes and drop the temps. This has the unfortunate side effect of making your entire desktop almost completely unresponsive and unusable, not great if you're in the middle of a 2 hr long zoom lesson. Of course, anything on the newer mac silicon runs great, but this is less to do with the OS and just great hardware.

Printers really don't use drivers. Printers use filters. The file is translated into a format the printer can understand. Printers speak languages. Like say PCL which is the Printer Command Language. So that's what's really going on. Then there's Ghostscript which is a software implementation of Postscript. Although some printers handle Postscript natively.

I understand that my case is not the universal one, so I get the nudge to Linux as an option, but for me, Linux as a daily driver is just simply not there yet

[@CurlyManGA]

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

(I mainly use a Quest 3. I have an Index...but it's got a bunch of dead pixels so I've been avoiding using it until it gets fixed.) I also sadly use the Adobe suite.

[@scorinth]

I have met at least two people who use Linux for VR. One uses an Index and the other uses a tethered Quest. One of them uses a system called Monado to replace SteamVR, but I forget which one. I spend a lot of time in a social VR program called "Resonite" and many of the users I've bumped into are Linux users, but I'm not sure they're using linux _for VR_. Sadly, I'm not aware of any way to run the Adobe suite under Linux and I suspect that, because of the way it's licensed, there is no way. Best I could offer for advice there is to either look into alternative applications that can run on linux (Krita is a good digital painting program, Blender can do video compositing as well as 3D animation, et cetera) or setting up a dual boot system so you can choose to use either Windows or Linux every time you boot the computer. Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of dual booting. It can be easy to set up and you can share files between the two OSes, but it's kind of a hassle to have to reboot just to use the one or two programs that require a particular OS.

Because it does in most cases. Just stay away from latest hardware as it will take some time for Linux to support them.

Hybrid graphics may cause some issue but it's fixable in most cases. And importantly not all distro works well with all hardware. So if some distro does not work for you, switch to something else.
