Roblox Studio small interface
I'm trying to start game development on roblox. However, roblox studio for me is run on vinegar and the button and letters are so small, making it hard to see. Has anyone face this problem? if so is there a solution to it?

AMD dev makes ACO the default shader compiler in Mesa for OpenGL on RDNA
Hey all! I'm developed a psychological horror game. You've been very helpful to me before. Thank you. It's out now!
Hey everyone!
I mentioned the psychological horror game I was working on last month, and you all gave me so much support. Now it's on Steam with Linux Support!
After 6 months of working on our days off, we released our game today! It’s a small game, but seeing our first project gain attention is an incredible milestone for our tiny indie team!
You can check out our game here.
Thank you so much ^^

USB in Linux: how to stop them from powering down
I've a joystick that also has a built in sound card. It works in linux but if there is no sound being played after like 10 minutes or so, the joystick ceases to receive power & the sound cuts off. I have to unplug the stick's usb and replug it to get it running again.
Being new to linux I asked perplexity AI and.. well, im not very convinced as to the answers. So I ask here.
How would I go around telling linux (Omarchy) to stop powering down/sleep mode the joystick/sound card?

HDMI 4k120 RGB HDR 10bit with VRR workaround for AMD GPUs
What Linux distro for Lenovo IdeaPad 720-15IKB (i5-7200U + RX 560 2GB) that actually performs well?
Hey everyone,
I’ve got a Lenovo IdeaPad 720-15IKB with the following specs:
- Intel i5-7200U (2C/4T)
- AMD Radeon RX 560 (2 GB VRAM)
- 20 GB RAM
- 512 GB SSD Currently running Windows 11.
I’m trying to switch to Linux to squeeze more life out of it, but I’ve had some trouble.
I tried Bazzite and Linux Mint, but both performed noticeably worse than Windows — sluggish desktop, bad performance in games and overall laggier performance.
I was expecting Linux to be lighter, so I’m guessing this is related to drivers or the Intel + AMD hybrid GPU setup.
Has anyone run Linux successfully on this laptop or similar hardware?
Which distro (and desktop environment) gives the best performance and stability for this kind of system?
I’m open to Fedora, Arch-based, or Ubuntu-based or any other options — whatever works best with my AMD hardware.
Any advice on Mesa/kernel versions or GPU driver setup would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Do you recommend the game for Linux?
It sounds silly, but I'm bored of playing the same old games, so I'm going to try something different. What are some recommendations for games to play on Linux?
(To give you an idea, my two favorite games I play on Linux are MineTest/Lunati and OpenArena.)

SecureBoot really keeps me from making a serious shift
I would love to try out more Gaming on Linux. Even got myself a 9070XTX. But yeah, bad life decisions made me obey to the lord of kernel level anti cheat which started dating secureboot enforcement
If it would just be as easy as dual booting into your linux of choice (really am interested in the out of box performance of cachyOS).
But as long as you avoid touching your secureboot on UEFI, to me it seems, you will not be able to boot from anything not supporting secureboot (have I given up too early ?)
Has anyone tampered with this? Does it work properly, to maybe temporarily turn off SecureBoot, install linux - maybe even opt it for secureboot itself - and then turn it back on (without windows booting off-secureboot)?
If its just some pieces of experiences you made with this… i am trying to figure if its worth digging in my free time :)

Que distribución elegir?
Buenas gente, tengo una duda y no se que distribución elegir exactamente, quisiera algo personalizable y que sirva tanto para juegos en .exe como para otros programas que uso para trabajar como UnlockTool, Chimera, Etc.
Que distribución es mejor?

I feel free
Up until 3 days ago, I was determined to stick with Windows 11 until the bitter end, telling myself that I would just run scripts every time I booted up to turn off telemetry after Microsoft turned it back on after a mandatory update. I was content with editing registry values and contending with MSYS2 and Windows Python installations. I was fine with the fans randomly speeding up while I was only browsing the internet. At one point I realized that it was more effort to continue fixing Microsoft's f***ups and jumping through hoops to get rid of rounded corners and all of the AI spyware than it would be to just switch to Linux.
Needless to say, I wiped my drive clean and started with an Arch based distro and it feels like using an operating system from 10 years in the future. All of the GNU utils, no more ads, the computer does what I tell it to do, fans are quiet even with 20 tabs and a roguelike open. To any Windows lurkers, Microsoft doesn't care about you, it's never too late to switch.
Sorry if this is a bit off-topic, r/linux wouldn't let me post

Looking to try out Linux and possibly switch permanently. Bazzite or CachyOS?
I am highly considering washing my hands of Windows after getting fed up with various issues and the extreme push with AI and other anti-privacy issues. Just nearly had my whole system bricked because BitLocker got turned on automatically. Luckily I was able to get the decrypt key, but I never wanted BitLocker on ever.
I tried dual booting Linux Mint about 4 years ago and it was alright but not something that was good for gaming back then. So I am not completely new to Linux and kind of know some basics.
I am going to try dual booting either Bazzite or CachyOS but I am very torn on which to try first. I am on Nvidia, specifically a RTX 5070, so I know I will lose some performance but I am going to see if the performance loss is manageable.
So which do you guys think I should try first? I am probably 85% gaming and 15% just using the OS. I know there are a lot of videos out there addressing this very question, but I'd like to get some everyday people's opinions.

Released my point & click game today, Linux build available
Just popping in to say my game's now available - a short, ridiculous 2D point & click adventure. Also made Mac and Linux builds available, tested both.
Also tested on my Steam Deck - works well, uses the right track pad as a mouse, and right trigger as click - that's all it needs really.
