Decino's tech breakdowns are so entertaining!

How long before Nintendo slaps a DMCA on this one?

This looks great! I have definitely not played enough RSG so maybe I'll give this a go. I've sunk more hours into ikaruga.

On android, lemuroid is pretty good for this sort of thing and you can change the arrangement of your nds/3ds screens.

I have been using the hell out of bazzite for the last few weeks and I've really enjoyed it. There have been a couple of minor bugs but otherwise everything just generally works.

I've enjoyed it so much that I've also installed bluefin on my work laptop.

Not OP but:

  • on a desktop it's defaulted to desktop mode. I'm unsure about the steam deck.

  • you choose. KDE or GNOME. Budgie is being worked on.

  • lutris can install your windows executables. Bottles is available too.

The only games I'm unable to play so far have been AAA games with unfriendly anticheat. ProtonDB helps here.

Echoing the other sentiments, it's probably a good idea to hunt down why your system is having trouble because distro hopping might not fix it.

That being said I've recently been using bazzite and it's been relatively smooth. You just have to learn a couple (easy) ways to do package management a little differently.

Some of the questions about distros don't take into account those of us who have been using Linux since the mid-90s. Your scope here seems to be directed at the last decade or so.

RedHat 5.3 with fvwm (or fvwm95) is very nostalgic for me because it was one of the few walnut creek CDs I managed to get working. Mandrake and early SuSe were cute as well.

I'd wager it uses systemd considering Lennart Poettering works for Microsoft.

I sure hope this meme was edited or the op is satire. The dead internet has messed so many people up.

I absolutely love it. Easy to find newer versions of things than what's in my distro's repos, easy to update. The only snags I've encountered is sometimes (very rarely) a program won't have access to part of my storage or my system's dark theme isn't applied. The former is super rare and the latter is usually 5min of searching the web to remember how to change the theme for a flatpak.

EDIT: after reading some of the other comments, I should mention that I only use it for GUI applications. I've not yet tried any TUI/CLI applications as flatpaks.
