      It’s hilarious to me that I have to jump through so many hoops to get my old games working on windows when they run almost out of the box on Linux, but on the flip side with all the launchers and shit built into AAA games today it’s a hassle to get them set up on Linux. Like once I do get them set up they work great. But lutris, proton versions, winetricks, etc to get them working is an activity

    Meh. I definitely had issues getting bg3 working well on Linux.

    Eventually I switched to windows and it was a nightmare of different and worse issues.

    Back to Linux, found a fix. Sweet.

      Off topic… But isn’t apt-get outdated? I thought it was just “apt install”

        If you’re a user interacting with a terminal => apt

        If you’re writing a script or putting it in a docker file/automation => apt-get

        Apt is just a wrapper around apt-get a newer binary than apt-get (I stand corrected after checking my memory against google) and there are warnings that the apt shorthand is not as reliable in scripted scenarios. Its meant for user convenience.

        Apt-get is most certainly not outdated.

          I tried Arch once and they use Pacman for everything.

          It’s like Pacman -sY to install. Makes no sense.

          At least the AUR is cool.

          One day, Linux will have a nice, unified, polished application portal (not store because god forbid we see a LINUX APP STORE).

          For everything else there’s git.

          Git clone Make Pacman -sY lethal company Sudo chmod +x ./home/user/games/lethal_company.x86_64

          “Hold on guys I swear it works, Linux is just better, hold on”

          AUR Proton_EasyAntiCheatHooks Man -k Nvidia-Propietary ./etc/Xserver.conf --display one --mode C1B3 --vsync off Sudo reboot -now
