Not all games with anti cheat work on Linux.

I'm still waiting for gimp to actually be a viable alternative program to photoshop before installing dual boot linux

Gimp lacks photoshop features and still isn't catered towards creatives which is the main demographic of people using the software

I'm aware of krita but it's suited as a drawing program and also lacks many of the photo editing features I would use in photoshop

I am wondering how many people give up because their exact program isn't on there.

I get having to use Adobe software if you are an industry professional, but I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about people who don't want to change because qbittorrent is not the same as utorrent. Or peazip is different than 7zip.

hdr support is coming tho

• steamos already has it iirc (well, specifically gamescope)

• kde 6 has experimental hdr support with wayland session

• cosmic de devs promised hdr support in the first public stable release

what i really miss is passkeys (specifically, using tpm2 to store them like windows hello does)

Wait... There's no HDR support? Is that true?

HDR is more important than high frame rates in many games, assuming you have a good monitor that supports it. Seriously, it's amazing and extremely underrated.

The biggest problem with Linux (other than the whole "most people give up the second they see a terminal" thing) is software availability, which will hopefully improve as Linux gains market share.

From my experience in Linux:

1. Many pirated games installer doesn't work under wine (like from xatab, RG Mechanic, Razor, etc) unless you download pre-installed games like from IGG Games or you just download pirated gog games
2. Buggy glitching games work under wine (i don't know why that happened)
3. Many mod organizer & tools (MO, VORTEX, NMM, etc) doesn't work unless you download old version or download some sketchy dll files from sketchy website to make those programs works well
4. Sometimes after running games under wine my system crashes like unable to restart/shutdown or failed to open some programs like dolphin, terminal, etc (maybe bc my system running on wayland)
5. No Photoshop, After Effects, or Microsoft Office (yes....i know linux has similar programs but those suck & my workplace has standard)
6. Hard to fine tuning some apps unless you wanna do some dirty work in YAML or XML or CONF files

Yes I do use HDR. Bluetooth too. Sorry Linux users, we exist.

What I want from an OS:

Free, or a one time fee

Tells the date and time

Has a folder system that is indexed and easily searched.

Supports Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite, and Steam.

That's it. Genuinely cannot think of any reason I would ever want my computer OS to do anything more than that.

HDR? Who the fuck cares?
