I‘m pretty excited, ngl! I‘ve recently finished my daily driver and put ubuntu 23.04 on it. 3060ti (don’t buy nvidia! Just dont) and an i9, 32gigs of ram. Streaming on an apple tv with a ds4 controller.

All settings maxed with raytracing ultra (did hitch a bit like 30-40 min into the game, either bigger rooms or heat buildup, gotta check that) turned off raytracing, everything was fine again.

The game is so cinematic and 3rd person lends itself to controllers imo.

But I wanted to share this because it blew my mind how far linux gaming has come. You don’t need a game console. You can just run it on your tv over fkin lan. Crazy!

I'm not an Ubuntu doomer like most of the internet (I don't hate snap like everyone else), but I did recently switch to OpenSUSE on my gaming laptop and I'm loving it. I switched because I wanted a rolling release distro so I didn't need to worry about waiting for new features. I also wanted to switch to KDE Plasma after using it on my Steam Deck and loving it, but I could have done that while staying on Ubuntu. It was just another excuse for me to try something new.

That said, I will likely never move my server off of Ubuntu. I am totally fine with my packages being old and not getting new features right away because my server must be functioning all the time. Even updating to new LTS releases makes me nervous.

Anyway, if you're happy with Ubuntu, don't let anyone bully you off of it. It's really not bad. It's stable. That's its best feature. Unless there's something specific you want from another distro, stick with what you like.

Thank you very much. There are quite a few people on here who feel very strongly about otherwise inconsequential topics.

I feel like we should open a "touchedgrass" community where everyone can post pics of landscape with their username and the current date to prove they have touched grass recently. This is obviously mostly a joke but I kinda like the idea. :) Would you like to mod that with me?
