So I have to use a windows machine for work. I can’t tell you how awsome wsl is. You can use any Linux package on wsl. If you are crasy enough you can even run desktop environments like xfce. All this with nearly native speed.

Of cource things links a KVM aren’t possible but nothing is nicer to just type wsl into your terminal and have your Linux distro of choice ready to go

I’m currently using greetd-tui but I would instantly switch over to sddm if the Wayland session actually works. (I use hyprland as my window manager )

Maybe dwm or dwl. I’m a hyprland user but this would be the minimum you should go for

*only the games you didnt download

Yes it work with English content very well. You can rerout all your audio to it via helvum. The big problem is that it only has 3 languages supported English, French and Polish. So it technicality works but not in German unfortunately. But I can say now it partly works on Linux.

To be honest it is reliable on my system and the best thing is that I don’t have to think about updates, out of date dependence, package versions or packages in general. Just paru package done. As long as you are fine with setting some stuff up manually Arch is pretty amazing.

Especially if the game is older

I wouldnt do it so ether

I am also thinking about hosting my own but that outch

Greenland is at 12,51% idk why but it is so I guess

Yea i can understand this

You could also try to convert and install the .deb or .rpm packages see here as reverence

Or maybe use distrobox if this doesn’t work. Pretty much anything is better than chrome

Yea it would run on it linke any other distro, but you wouldn’t be able to multi task. I reasently installed Debian 32bit on an lenovo ideapead from 2013 with a 1 core 2 threads at 1.2ghz, 2G of ram and a HDD it runs KDE Plasma and will load anything as your pations are strong enough

But you could also run Alpine it will probably use less ram then debian. But I am farmiliar with apt, systemd and gnu software so yea. It is easier for me to give it to my small step sis as a research device with Firefox. I think Debian with KDE plasma uses about 630MB and with xfce around 300-400MB. But I think she is better of with KDE as she primary uses windows in school and it looks more like it

So on their github are appimages, .rpm and .deb available. Idk if you can convert .deb or .rpm files to alpine compatible packages but the appimage should run eververe

I would recommend using librewolf thorium for normal task and if the site doesnt work with it i use thorium. Librewolf is slower than thorium but it is for me the better default version of Firefox. Loading yt is really slow with librewolf so I use freetube or invidious to watch content.

Ah yes a “special military operation”

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope#status-of-gamescope-packages and i can conform on my fedora laptop it is there avalible in the repos to. I don’t have a HDR display if you don’t count in my phone.

*also a laptop manufacture

How is the GNOME app called? I’m asking for a school project

You could use game scope if I remember correctly
