GTA Online now has BattlEye Anti-Cheat and is no more playable(for now?)
Not trying to clickbait but is this the end for kernel-level anti-cheat?
Just a moment...

After having run Windows on my desktop for years (as I thought it was necessary for gaming), I decided to take the plunge to try out Linux again...
... and it's much, much better than I anticipated. Proton has solved so many things. I've been dual booting on a smaller partition so far, but this has convinced me to wipe the whole disk and use it for Linux only. I might still keep a dual boot in case there is some edge case, but nothing so far has been an issue. I've been running Pop_Os! which I also have on my laptop since some year back. Previously I've also always had Arch on my laptop, but always stuck with Windows for my desktop just because of gaming issues.

There's a lot of blog posts and news articles being written right now centred around Microsoft's plans for updates to Windows 11, and potential kernel changes, with some thinking this means big things for Linux gaming.

[SOLVED] Silent Hunter 3 & Living Silent Hunter 3 Supermod - Steam proton + JSGME question
Which distro?
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/19744473
I'm going to be building a new computer soon for myself. (Going AMD for the first time, since intel microcode issue.)
I would say I'm an expert or advanced user, as been using pcs for 25 years and set up arch and slackware in the past. I have tried many distros and would like some feedback.
I mainly use my pc for gaming. I want something customizable, KDE ish, and without bloatware. A good wiki is a plus.
I think that i may end up with arch... is it better for gaming since it's bleeding edge and isn't steamos built off it?
Side question is distro chooser accurate?
What are your games to get into the season for its vibe?
