guys really need some help, is it possible to have a linux distro that just "works" the way macOS works for me? I've had zero issues in the last 5 years of owning macbooks and want to badly replace my win11 gaming machine with a serious alternative...
I'm just very unhappy with ms and hate what they are doing - I wish macOS supported DX12 and an eGPU but it doesn't really work. If I can find a distro that does everything and is fully protected with things like recovery if something goes wrong - I just want to use it as a gaming machine with a 4000 / 5000 series card
is it possbile that something can just work without any issues?
alternatively is there a way to disable all the crap on win11?

POP OS or Bazzite
I’ve been using POP OS for over 3 months now and so far love it as it does just work and all my software is simply on their store except for Vmware. I mostly live in the browser (Edge) and use VLC player from time to time. When I’m doing anything else it is gaming through Steam or Lutris and I’m wondering what is better in terms of performance while keeping the same stability that I have with POP OS. Currently I can install the 570 drivers but I’m scared to as I don’t know what I’d do if my screen turned black and I had to roll back or something through the terminal.
I also use OBS, Handbrake, Libreoffice, Dolphin Emulator, Retroarch, CEMU, RPCS3
Ryzen 7 9700X
2080Ti
Samsung 990 Evo +
This is my setup
Currently I’m not really even running into issues it is mainly over me being bored of POP OS as it does just work but the thing is they run on older kernels and they are still on the 565 drivers with the 6.12.10 Kernel
Thank you for the help
BTW I would love to get a 9070XT soon and I don’t want to manually update things to get it to work and I’m wondering if even next year POP OS will work out of the box with that GPU which is when I plan on buying it (Saving up for it)

Just finished a big update for my cozy 2D mining & shop management game :) It now has wandering villagers and a handy lore book.
Hey! I’ve been working on this game for 3 years. It’s currently at version 0.9, and even after 1.0, I’m not planning to stop! I've got so many more ideas I want to bring in!

Render-Optimierung unter Vegas
Hallo,
Arbeite mit Vegas 22 Pro, W11, i9 11900
Hatte bis vor kurzem eine RTX2060 unter PCIe3 und erreichte beim 4K Rendern zu HEVC (ohne Effekte) ca 32 fps.
(das fand ich entspr. dem Preis Leistungs-Verhältnis als gut)
Da jetzt zunehmend 60fps Material ins Spiel kam verdoppelte sich also die Renderzeit.
Hab das Motherboard gewechselt auf ASUS Z590 E mit PCIe4.
Grafikkarte gewechselt zu RTX4070 Super.
Trotzdem herreiche ich jetzt auch nur 36 bis 37 fps beim 4K Rendern in HEVC.
Meine eigentliche Frage:
Vegas hat ja ein Fenster wo Dir einiges angezeigt wird beim Rendern.
Was auffällt ist, das Vegas quasi zyklisch arbeitet, also immer hin- und her wechselt zwischen einem Rendervorgang (ca 2 oder 3 sec) und einem Datentransportvorgang. (etwa gleichlang)
Während im Teilzyklus Rendern zwischen 60 und 100 fps angezeigt wird (meist zw. 70 u 80), kommt durch den folgenden Datentransportvorgang - wo das Rendern steht, nur ein Durchschnitt von ca 36 - 37 fps am Ende heraus.
Ist das normal bei Vegas, oder deutet das auf eine Schwachstelle in meinem PC hin die ich verbessern könnte?
... es wäre ja schön wenn man den Wert der während des Render-Intervalles angezeigt bekommt, dauerhaft hätte?

What is the current state of nVidia on wayland?
I was hoping to get a 9070 XT, but the prices are absurd compared to their nVidia counterparts, so I'm looking into buying a 5070 instead. My problem however is that I need Wayland for a variety of reasons, and my experience with my old 1080 GTX with Wayland was horrible a few years back. What kind of issues seem to exist with Wayland + Nvidia in 2025? Does VRR only work on one screen? Do parts of the screen still render weirdly? Thank you.

original ps3 controller recognized as ps3 controller for a second and works fine, but suddenly gets rerecognized as a xbox 360 controller and doesnt work anymore. what 2 do?
im on debian 12, using gnome. for context i used this controller when i had windows on my pc, and to get the system to recognize the controller, i had to use a third party software that tricked windows into thinking my ps3 controller was a xbox 360 controller. i believe this problem is related to that, idk how tho. the problem is surely not the controller because i've tested it on a windows device before this and it worked fine. the controller itself is fairly new too (been a few months since i bought it, im the first user.). anyways uhh i dont know what other information im supposed to give. i would send logs here but idk where i can find that. uhh i guess i'll write my specs down
RX 570 4 GB
RYZEN 5 3600
16 GB DDR4 3200 MHZ RAM
240 GB SSD (BOOT) + 480 GB SSD
uhh i guess thats it. Yeah yeah. yes. thank you guys for helping 🙏

Wireless controllers that will work out of the box on nobara?
I've been trying to pair my series x controller and it isn't working, but works wired and the dongle works on windows. I believe nobara has xone pre installed but it will not pair. I want something that will just work.

Thinking of switching to Linux (Fedora) after decades on Windows – a few questions
I've been thinking about migrating to Linux for good, and Fedora is one of my top distro choices. I've been a Windows user since 3.11 and started experimenting with Linux early on, occasionally trying out some releases via VMs. I've always used Windows as a work tool (web/app development) and for leisure (gaming). Occasionally I use applications for vector illustration, image editing, and audio recording.
That said, there are a few things I'd like to know:
1) Are there Linux tools similar to PowerToys? For clipboard history access via WIN + V, system color picker, etc.?
2) I currently have a 3090 and in all my systems I always undervolt the GPU. I use MSI Afterburner for that. Is there something similar that allows undervolting and fan control as well as access to FPS and other indicators (GPU temp, fan speed, etc.) in-game?
3) For gaming, can I run only Steam games? And what about local games with modified files/repacks?
4) Will Fedora be a good distro for work and gaming?

Are these Roblox and Roblox Studio logos original or fake?
i was bored and started digging through the files on my fedora linux laptop and found these 2 roblox logos as if they were from linux or in a simplified style but very simplified to the originals (i retouched them by increasing the quality because the quality is very bad) does anyone know if these are original or something like that? they are logos from roblox studio and from normal roblox, i manually uploaded the quality on kleki.com (that page doesn't matter much but i mention it anyway) and the 2 with the original names mention ¨grapejuice¨ followed by the name of whether it is roblox or roblox studio and it is separated with ¨_¨ between that.

Gaming laptop that works best to dual-boot?
I currently use an ASUS ROG G14 laptop and have been thinking about returning to the Linux ecosystem -- I used to daily drive Ubuntu years ago (something like 10 years ago now, wow) and would like to get a dual-boot setup running again sometime soon. However, the ROG laptops have a bunch of Asus bloatware and numerous hardware issues even on the Windows side, and while there is a community project to make it work with Linux (currently best supported through Fedora and Arch), it still sounds like there are some compatibility issues.
However, I may get a new laptop relatively soon (probably towards the end of the year). I am definitely not getting another Asus as it has been a nightmare dealing with this one even just on Windows. So I figured I would ask: What gaming laptops support Linux well out of the box? I know there will always be some fiddling to do to make it work 100%, but I would prefer minimal fiddling.
