Hey!

Windows 11 gamer here, I basically only use my new PC desktop for gaming. Using Nvidia. Right now playing mostly GW2 and CK2.

I just started fiddling around with Linux a few weeks ago. I tried Linux Mint but had problems with CK2 recognizing my Nvidia card despite installing the driver. So I moved over to Ubuntu. CK2 is now working perfectly, but GW2 is stuttering whenever I move my mouse, making it not playable. I’m running it as a non Steam game on Steam.

Which distro would you recommend for me? I’m thinking about Bazzite (but maybe it’s mostly for handheld games?) or Pop_OS? Fedora? Or can I maybe fix GW2 on Ubuntu somehow?

All the different distros is making this a bit overwhelming 😅

I’m a little bit confused still but haven’t had the time to read through any FAQs. I don’t know how to access my account in a web browser for example (I’m using an iPhone app now).

So thank you for those links! Will have a look.

The first group in the link is Danish and the second group is Swedish. They have the same name in different languages.

Yeah, this boycott is really gaining momentum! Finding European alternatives for digital stuff has become my new big hobby 🤩

This post on Reddit is what made me sign up for Lemmy. It’s really needed, otherwise I wouldn’t have understood how to do it.

Great job on this post!

So true! We have to start using Lemmy in a meaningful way to attract other people.

I just installed Linux Mint yesterday. Can’t wait to get home to continue playing around with it. I like it so far!
