Comment on Wine 11 rewrites how Linux runs Windows games at the kernel level, and the speed gains are massive
IamSparticles@lemmy.zip 7 hours agoOh, that’s cool! I just switched from Windows to CachyOS a few weeks ago. It started out as an experiment to see how usable it would be, since I’ve always run into issues with nvidia drivers in the past. I kept Windows as a boot option, but I literally haven’t booted it in 3 weeks now. Everything just works, and works really well!

Yeah, I did see some talk about uses being hesitant as this was a very new thing that the OS was adding as a default but seems to have worked out.

For sure. I’ve tried to use various Linux distros as a daily driver several times in the past. But when it came to gaming, I would always run into hardware compatibility issues. Eventually, I would give up since gaming is my most frequent use for my desktop PC. But this time has been incredibly trouble-free. I think the only significant issue I’ve run into is that I had to manually build the xone driver to get my wireless xbox controller dongle to work.
