The beloved lightweight distro

I've been debating making the switch for a long time, but after spending like a week researching Proton, Lutris etc. on Linux, I decided to try it out and nuked my entire Windows 11 drive. :)

So far, every game I threw at it works perfectly fine, including Elden Ring & Cyberpunk.

I had to spend a little time troubleshooting some small issues but it's part of the fun!

Specs are in the neofetch, my compositor / WM is Wayfire (Wayland) :)

FYI if you decide to dual boot at some point you can set Windows to use UTC. It's even less intuitive than how systemd can be set to local time.

Also if you can, if you decide to dual boot I recommend separate drives. Windows has gotten nicer but it still doesn't play well with others because, let's be honestly, most of the time it doesn't have to. So if you run recovery if Windows doesn't boot, it's not unusual for it to nuke EFI like it's still the 90s and Win98 just nuked LILO.

Yeah im aware. I’ve had to do it in the past, it’s a registry edit IIRC
