Moving beyond linux mint to other distros so I can learn more and have a more customizable linux experience.
I got fed up with windows 10, and then windows 11 pushed me away from ever wanting to use windows again.
Linux mint has been fun but its a bit too barebones when it comes to customization ( though that's one of its strengths since its so easy and straightforward for a longtime windows user to move over to linux)
Also I've had a bunch of trouble with Nvidia drivers and playing new games in 2023, so I'll probably buy/build a new linux desktop in late 2024 on AMD CPU/GPU.
I think the teams that are responsible for bringing proper HDR support are moving slow and waiting for HDR to get its shit together, as right now it’s a poorly standardized dumpster fire of various protocols and definitions and implementations. It’s still a bit of a pain in windows and macos despite the fact that official support exists already.
Work in Cinnamon on Wayland, Plasma 6, XFCE 4.20 for Wayland support, WINE on Wayland, The Fancy Hyprland-like effects coming to Qtile Wayland, basically everything Wayland.
None in particular. Just the totality of the changes. Many of them are small default changes or usability changes, but when taken together it sounds like a nice, somewhat overdue bundle.
It’s amazing that Linux gaming is becoming a thing that’s better sometimes than Windows gaming (minus the getting banned part in some games). I also like that AMD is making some big pushes on open source drivers, plus their ROCm open-source alternative to CUDA.
I just ROCm was built in to mesa. Because either you use the proprietary drivers that have some issues, or use mesa and fight with everything (amf, ROCm) to try and get it working.
