Sadly people like this have been there at every corner when I talk about my issues/reasons for not switching (yet). I still want to, but also think this turns off a lot of people.
That was also my guess certainly with an nvidia GPU. My next pc will be AMD based partially because I really want to make the step to Linux
The games were gold or platinum on protonDB and run fine on my steam deck
Steam / Lutris said they're running, nothing shows up.
Your edit is another reason I actually rather stay away from Linux instead of giving it a chance / asking for help. The community feels way too elitist and insulting to anyone not praising it.
I gave up on switching to linux after losing 2 entire evenings setting it up (linux mint) just for my games not to run and not a single solution I could find working.
I'll give it another try once I buy my new PC and set that up, but Linux is not as plug and play as windows and I totally understand that non-IT people want to stay away from it now. The community makes it sound as if everything is almost out of the box simple but that is not the case at all.
I was looking into those but settled for Xreal AR glasses to use as a monitor, they aren't amazing but good enough for the price + make it very portable and private
Did my phrasing imply they're not? I said a fairer company, they're open about being for profit and are made in the EU with proper GDPR compliance (you never know with american companies, just look at the recent fines for apple and facebook)
Ok so personally I really wouldn't mind having some non-tracking ads in a banner somewhere to at least support a bit (perhaps on an opt-in system). This'd allow me to support lemmy just a little bit every time I use it.
They need to credit OSM if they do that which would give free advertising to the project. They already have more data than OSM anyways so don't see why they would do that
