I switched to CachyOS on a 5700X3D/3060 combo 6 months ago and have had zero issues gaming. CachyOS has a custom fork of proton and it has worked like a dream. Lutris and Steam have been rock solid after some mild setup and my framerate has been as good as/better than it ever was on Windows. I’ve run a couple VMs to test and also had no problems there. Definitely check ProtonDB for the minor tweaks necessary for some games to run but most have just worked out of the box once setting steam to use compatibilty.

I don’t understand why they wouldn’t accept it. Haven’t had that issue anywhere else. Even went back and forth with customer service through my old email and over telephone and got nowhere.

Same except the push for me was in my “degoogling” process. Epic wouldn’t accept an email address from Proton. They said I needed a “legitimate email” and then locked my account till I provided one. That was the push I needed to dump them completely. Truly, I haven’t even thought about missing it since leaving.

I ended up deleting my Epic account. It was full of free games that I had never played once and had no interest to.

We get Barbietis now? Aight

Surprisingly, different people have different tolerances for hot and cold. I’m perfectly comfortable at 60F. I’ve shovelled ice from a driveway in jeans and a short sleeve t-shirt more than once. 75F+ is borderline too warm. 85F+ and I avoid going outside as much as possible.

I try to avoid the beach as much as possible. I’ll take snowy mountains over the beach.

Naw, sweating just for standing outside ain’t it. I’d rather have the option to be cold outside and warmer with clothes if I choose.

Naw, light jacket weather is superior to shorts weather all day, everyday

Naw, 75F+ is gross. 60F is the sweet spot.
