Ironically, I think it is harder for tech savy people. I have three hard drives and Mint struggled to put ext4 on my m.2, solution was use bftrs as a file system. Other than that googling and copy pasting the solution into terminal.

I play old games and interestingly had better FPS with default Mint than default Bazzite. Old like the last golden age 90s 2000s.

Just switched to Linux. Convinced sis in law to try linux as she was having driver issues. Wife is about to try it on our laptop. Linux has reached a point of, it just works. It can play windows games better than windows, so no reason not to.

Could Steam back down on their 30% cut? Sure, but not a monopoly.

It isn’t a monopoly because they don’t require you to use their store. Epic has a monopoly of epic exclusive games.

Based is for doing something useful or good.

Sure, try the buggy Epic version then buy the usable Steam version.

Also, imagine making a launcher that is so trash people will buy games on other platforms just to not deal with it.

Consolidation of wealth could be a good thing, but the people consolidating it are never good.
