Yep! I’m on Nvidia, the new drivers are really solid. I’ve read AMD cards run fine as well, but don’t use one

I’m gonna start sounding like a shill, but check out Nobara. Painless install, steam games just work out of the box.
Same. They’ve always done this shit, but installing windows - and then uninstalling or disabling all the cooked-in bloat and spyware - has become so ridiculously tiresome that I just said fuck it and went Linux full-time.
Every update or service pack, it starts all over. There’s no such thing as a clean windows install.
Nobara was up and running in like ten minutes with no fuckery at all, and it’s no nice not having to fight my OS on everything.
Nvidia drivers actually come pre-baked with the installer. When you download the iso, just make sure you get the Nvidia one. It’ll install the most recent drivers for you as part of the install.
I’m running a 4060ti on mine (it was free, I know they’re silly cards) with zero issues.
Nobara is pretty close. Glorious Eggroll’s distro, comes with proton pre-installed so it can run steam games out of the box. Worth a shot, I love it
Nvidia just requires a driver install on most distros, and the newer drivers for Linux run rather well. All but one of my games runs better on Linux than on Windows (MK1 has slowdown issues on cinematics)
It’s a lot easier than it used to be. I moved to Nobara (gaming-centric fedora distro that does all the install work for you) maybe two months ago and haven’t been back.
While a few things have required some tweaking, almost everything runs fine out the box and I’ve only had to use the console to troubleshoot one issue so far.
Throw a couple distros on a thumb drive and give one a try

But I was already planning on leaving mine to my son.
Guess he just gets my username and password.

I’ve been running Nobara for about a month now and really like it. It’s a gaming focused distro put together by Glorious Eggroll, and it’s set up to make Linux desktop gaming as easy as possible. A few of my more demanding games drop a few frames, but for the most part things run just as well or better in Linux.
It’s worth a shot.
Oh so even if you do the registry workaround it’s worthless? Lol amazing, good to know.
So you technically can move the task bar to the edge in Windows 11, but it requires a registry change. Ludicrous, but if you’re a home user you can do it.
If you’re stuck on an IT-managed install for work like I am, however, you’re out of luck
11 year old account. When BaconReader went, so did I. Logged out during the blackout and won’t be back.
I like the vibe better here anyway, but it would be nice if my two favorite niche subs would come with. There are Lemmy communities for both, but they’re not very active (I participate in both here, it’s just quiet)
That’s the spirit! Get the fuck in!
This is a deeply unpopular take but it’s the correct one. I caucusef for Bernie in both 2016 and 2020 and the amount of Hilary/Biden supporters to Bernie supporters in both respective years was dishearteningly high.
The only people who show up for primaries and caucuses are predominantly white, Christian heterosexuals of retirement age.
They’re absolutely fucking terrified of anything remotely approaching progressive policy and they’ll never, ever let us run anyone who doesn’t make them feel safe with all their old white money.
