  • even with wine/yabridge getting paid ones with licence protection running is a mess.

    Honestly, because I’m not a fan of intrusive DRM anyway, I say Yarr, matey 🏴‍☠️

    I know that’s not a solution for some, but until there’s more Linux native VST’s, it’s a viable path for those willing to take it.















  • I disagree that stable distros aren’t good at general purpose gaming systems, they work fine unless you have very new hardware.

    And sometimes the newer stuff csn bring more problems than a stable distro, depending on your hardware.

    As an example, my system is an nvidia laptop with an external monitor. Unfortunately, the Nvidia driver is absolutely unusable under Wayland with this setup, which was a bummer for me, as I wanted to use Fedora with it, but starting with Fedora 41, X11 was completely phased out, so I couldn’t fall back to it.

    I’m not a fan of openSUSE tumbleweed or Arch based distros, which do still support X11, which left me with the more Stable distros. Mint worked flawlessly with my setup, and I have no issue gaming.

    Tl;dr there’s more nuance to stability vs bleeding edge, and both have their place.
