I heard back than that the open source driver is pretty much just a layer of abstraction and that most actual code runs in the firmware which is proprietary

It works. You simply need the kde portal and pipewire installed

Valve’s custom wayland compositor used on steam os

Is it just me or is this image fucking terrifying

Fun fact : waterfox is a thing actually

Hitler said that all the jews were evil. How ironic

Yeah mostly because isreal/ Palestine conflict is much older then russia/Ukraine so a lot of things happened. But at it’s very core they both started because of the same claim : russia claimed used to own Ukraine so they want it back. The jews used to own Palestine so they want it back. So if you support Ukraine and isreal you’re just a hypocrite

Isn’t pipewire the wayland of pulseaudio ? (Like pipewire is supposed to modernize pulseaudio just like wayland and x11)

Yep you’re right. Mesa covers almost anything. But streaming and recording, photo and video editing, 3d rendering ai training etc aren’t “specific compute tasks” they represent the vast majority of the market with billions of dollars in revenue. And no the solution isn’t to use another gpu. It’s for AMD to make their software stack actually usable

For gaming AMD is as good as NVIDIA or even better. For anything else tho it’s a dumpster fire. Amf still isn’t on par with nvenc, rocm is pure garbage and they are basically useless for any compute task

I have the exact same setup. NVIDIA card with dual monitors with different refresh rates. I could try wayland but it’ll be a risky bet or i will be stuck with two 90hz instead of one 144hz and one 90hz. Because of this i was actually kinda forced to go back to windows. If anyone has a solution i’ll be happy to hear it because i would like to switch back to linux

Not op but as a muslim the same applies to the whole universe. Just because the religious books talk mostly about the earth doesn’t mean other planets don’t exist. Infact the quran says that allah created the universe and is expanding it

It’s not just Microsoft tho. Redhat, oracle, facebook, Google, intel, AMD, they all contribute to linux. Removing their contribution would effectively make the kernel unusable

First the powershell is a very good terminal and some even consider it better than bash. And if you’re talking about the actual terminal emulator it also became really good with the new windows terminal(which is also open source) it bas many good features and customization options. Also wsl2 IS a VM running on hyper-v. It simply uses a custom kernel optimised for it and the cherry on top of the sunday : you can run gui apps natively (windows 11) with WSLg which uses wayland/xwayland

Well if you want to make a completely independent distro you could try linux from scratch and package the distro as an ISO with the packages you want and maybe try to add a package manager if you can. However i doubt that would be worth it as linux from scratch takes a lot of time and efforts to build and will rarely be better than just building a custom arch or debian ISO

I’m still mad over the JPEG xl drama
