Compared to almost all other distros, Arch is advanced in the way that it's the simplest of them all. Nothing except the very basics are set up for you, so it's tough to start with.
I live in Europe, and it's most definitely opt-in.
Proton and Wine are largely the same thing. Proton just has DXVK built in as well as a bunch of Valve-made patches.
Valve had greatly accelerated Wine development. I still run many games off pure Wine with manually added DXVK.
It's not that great tbh. I spent maybe 6 hours in it and didn't get hooked. With BG3 however, I'm at 60 hours and I can't put it down
If you like Bethesda games for their worlds, it's probably gonna be great. To me, the gameplay in their engine just feels really bad.
The movement, FOV, aiming, shooting, etc. just feels like they spent a few hours on it for an alpha for Morrowind and it hasn't changed one bit since.
When you're used to well made FPS engines, the gameplay of Skyrim and Fallout games just feels super bad, like tech demo-level bad.
I hope they finally made some changes, but they didn't for Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout NV, or Fallout 4, so my hope is running out.
All in all, a whopping 1-2% increase. Yay!
I've been using Arch for over a decade, and I would advise you to be careful when upgrading nvidia drivers. They just break every so often. Just do not delete your pacman cache and you should be able to easily downgrade
Boost for Lemmy is coming though
The equivalent of being broken up with, then posting daily on Facebook about your ex and contacting all her friends to tell them he's/she's the bad one
I'm sure they're hating that 1% of their users is spamming /r/place with bot visits, but I think you have to realize that there's no "fight" to be won and reddit definitely isn't facing any type of demise.
If you like Lemmy, help improve it and stop talking about reddit.
Genocide or bukkake?
It's kinda unfair to compare with pacman
as it by nature does way less than the rest, given that Arch is bleeding edge and doesn't have the same kind of dependency hell that other package managers have to struggle with.
I just have

functions in my shell RC files that look at file extensions and use the proper tool with proper arguments.Wrote them 10 years ago and they've worked flawlessly ever since!
