Thank you for the reminder to donate to this project. Absolutely amazing. Thank you, Mr Goyal and every contributor.

110%. Mine is serving me very well. I play video games in 4k, be it not 736648 FPS/Hz/refresh rate or whatever those imaginary numbers are, but I’m having fun.

Once the userbase becomes bigger, those folks will move over. Capitalist will follow the money, they don’t care what OS it is as long as they can make their lords shareholders happy.

Hey 👋🏽

A close friend of mine hates Linux with a passion. He always sends me meme about how terrible Linux is. He has the ROG Ally, he texted me the other day to tell me he had to put Bazzite OS on it because it was dogshit on windows. He loves it now. Lmao.

Bill Gates? Where is he?

Too late now, as I’ve already bought and have been using the R7 5700G for a long while now. This one is great, too. It boosts to 4.7 GHz. It has its own iGPU, 8 cores, 16 threads. It burns through everything I throw at it. Been very happy with it honestly. And the cherry on top was the price. I got it for $135. I’ll be keeping it for a long while. I don’t see any reason to spend more money. I literally have no issues with my system. Everything I do works no problem. All of the games I play work flawlessly (I never play multiplayer online stuff), why spend the extra money, you know?

Oh it’s totally fine, my friend. I just thought it was very funny. No hard feelings towards the commenter at all. I even actually laughed out loud. I’m that guy who never buys a brand new car, always used and has to be a great deal. Shit works, why spend the extra money? When you are bron born and raised in a poor 3rd world country, you learn to be very careful with your money when you have it.

Oh yeah, it is doing all I want it to do. Plus, on Linux I’ve learnt that having a bit older hardware is always better since the software for it is mature and works no problem in most cases. Absolutely zero complaints for what I paid for it. $500 for a whole PC is unbeatable

100% nailed it. I bought all parts for $500. Works great. The processor is a Ryzen 7 5700G and it comes with an iGPU, so I didn’t get a dGPU at the time, a friend of mine had an RX 580 laying around and gave it to me. Gamed on it for about a year or less, worked fine. Later on, I got an RX 6600 from Facebook for $100.

The honest answer(s), money and I didn’t know any better, especially in the AMD side. I hadn’t learnt their numbering schemes and I saw Ryzen 7 and thought “hell yeah”, but it turned out it’s a 5700G and the newest is the 7000 series. lol. Still powerful as hell. I bought the whole thing from microcenter and I had the salesperson pick the parts for me. I restricted him to $500 and that’s all we were able to get with that money. I have no issues with it whatsoever. I can play all of my games on 4k mid to low settings. Not much fps, but I’m a guy who’s ok with a game if it runs at 30 fps.

Im on an outdated chipset (AM4)

Bruh, why do you have to say that? 😂. I just built my PC a couple of months ago and I bought an AM4 and I thought I had some kickass specs.

Sounds like a nightmare. I got sick thinking about it. Lol

Of course, and no worries. We are all good :)

Exactly. They’re (as far as I know) the only company that emailed me to tell me that I can take to court directly without an arbitration. Not that I’ll ever be able to afford it, but seeing how confident and pro-consumer (I fucking hate the word consumer lol) they are is amazing.

Yay. So happy I was able to pass on the kindness. I love Linux

Welp, I do need my dGPU for my games. VM passthrough is just something I wanted to try

My apologies. Fixed it in the main post with an edit

Because valve is a private company. They don’t have to answer to shareholders. That means, they don’t go through enshitifaction, they care about their product and their customers. Are they perfect? Absolutely not, are they good? Better than every single company out there that tries to be like them. Period.

They’ll come around when the userbase increases. We live in a capitalist world, and these fuckers will always follow the money. They have zero principles, they just want the money.
