Oh, makes sense. It thought Valve would already be working with some manufacurers based on this interview from November

Shame that all these companies choose win11 over SteamOS

Missing codecs, try running with Proton-GE

on ExpressVPN many servers are blocked but if you pick a smaller country like Luxembourg it can work

Same here. this is upsetting :/ Back to firefox I guess

Great news! is there a chance this will eventually lead to screen tearing protocol getting implemented?

Could be true for governmental work and computers but the masses aren’t moving to linux, it’s still under 1% in China.

This is the way. I dabbled with a modmic but even that developed a cable issue after a couple of years. Now everything I have is modular and all of their cables can be just swapped out.

Gaming headsets.

Kept buying whatever I could for ~60-70€ at the time, and they kept breaking within a year. Bought proper headphones for 120€ which lasted me 8 years.

Going to ask here, anyone know a music player that is similar to AIMP? It has no native support, unfortunately.

I got a reply to this one, for anyone else wondering:

“Yes, it is on the TODO list and we will eventually support it. But it’s not a very high priority.”

thanks!

Looks nice! which icons are these?

Still haven’t found an answer if it will support the wayland screen-tearing protocol for fullscreen applications (games mainly), does anyone know?

Looking great though, looking forward to it next year!

it works on KDE Plasma, you just have to enable it in the settings.

No. I mean allowing screen tearing or disabling vertical sync. It adds input delay which makes competitive shooters feel unresponsive and thus making aiming difficult. For example on GNOME Wayland shooters feel significantly worse than on X11/KDE on Wayland (with tearing allowed)

it all makes sense now! solved.

UPDATE: I am an idiot.

I was setting the acceleration method for the wrong device all the time. I didn’t realize to select the actual mouse from the dropdown in KDE mouse settings until I plugged in my old mouse in.

Anyway that’s the acceleration solved. Also as qwesx pointed out, there is some issue with my Logitech Pro X Superlight. The mouse feels more sluggish when using the wireless dongle compared to it being wired. Must be the wrong polling rate or something?

Huh, it could be that I need a fresh install. I will try adding KDE Neon or something on my Ventoy and post an update. Thanks!
