Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
My experience has been very slightly better (Quest 3 + Wifi 7 AP) on CachyOS compared to Win11. I was using Virtual desktop streamer (paid $25 for it) and now on Cachy using ALVR (free).
Framerates are more stable, very slightly lower averages in a few games, but the 0.1% lows that make me nauseous are now gone on Linux!
Regarding HDR yeah, I wish it had more widespread support and not get stuck on 1 window manager. But on KDE at least the SDR->HDR color mapping looks better than the Win11 auto HDR.
Needs more work for sure, some X.org applications really look terrible out of the box lol, but overall it feels good to be on an OS that gets improvements with time instead of downgrades.
