Comment on I spent a year on Linux and forgot to miss Windows
Nugscree@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoWell it started with my graphics driver for the AMD RX 6800 XT that cause compositor freezes on Wayland so my panels just froze for no reason, fix -> switch to X11. Browser was hogging an insane amount of cpu to just render Youtube, reason was the hardware video encoder was not enabled, tried to install mesa drivers and you can only do that with rpm-ostree (first breakage of immutable) spend two days debugging and flatpack overwrites to try and fix it to no avail, left it as is. Next wanted NordVPN because I’ve been useing their service for forever, no official flatpack so I needed to use distrobox which is a vm running on my machine with another os in it to run a simple program or use rpm-ostree to install the nordvpn normal linux package (second breakage). Has some issues with getting a network share to work, ended up having to make a script that mounted the drive on boot. My normal Linux distro just used fstab and it worked Next issue installing Bambulabs software, appimage doesn’t work because it depends on gtk, rpm-ostree install number 3, it didn’t take so I gave up after a week of fighting the OS and just installed Fedora KDE Plasma.
