Try playing games like Cyberpunk. I dare you :)

You are lucky if you can play without a crash for even one minute with that card. I am not exaggerating. Something is seriously messed up with the 20XX series.

Also Wayland is still a mess for Nvidia cards overall which is becoming more and more important.

You could try disabling VRR in your display settings. I believe it is set to auto by default if supported, but it does not work properly for some monitors causing flickering.

Same. A 7800 XT is on its way as we speak replacing my 2080 Super. I am just sick of Nvidia even though performance wise it wouldn’t be necessary.

I am aware, but check the referenced issues. Support has been merged like a year ago and at least gnome on Wayland should work out of the box. It’s incomplete, but it should be working

Also barrier is considered abandoned at this point the previous maintainers forked it which actually is leap input.

Check the input leap project. While I haven’t tested it myself, Wayland support got added like a year ago. You still needed to rebuild some packages, but reading the issue tracker now it seems to have gone a long way.

Unfortunately it is still not considered production ready. At this point I assume they will have it implemented and ready way before synergy though.

Sounds like you don’t clean your package cache. You can enable the paccache.timer to handle it for you on a weekly basis.

There was or is a bug with WebKit when using Nvidia. If that’s the case remove the Nvidia driver and use nouveau instead. After logging in you can reinstall the Nvidia driver again.

I almost forgot it existed. It was a slight improvement, but with a whole bunch of new problems (most notable race conditions which were never fixed) and it was made obsolete by systemd.

It was a good evolutionary step only used by Ubuntu iirc. It was better at that time than the previous init system, but not more than that and it never found wide adaption.

I used Linux (and some Unix) before systemd was a thing and init scripts are jank. So much boilerplate and that was before things like proper isolation existed and other more modern features.

I don’t understand why anyone would want that back.

A replacement of systemd with something else would be fine, but please no more init scripts and pointless run levels.

No. If you have vim installed that’s true on many (some?) systems. As I said some distros have vi available, but not vim which is the annoying part.

There is not really anything to learn. It is just lacking some useful features and shortcuts which make it slower to use. It’s still much better than nothing.

Usually my biggest issue is that I am so used to write vim over vi. At least for small edits.

I am surprised that vi is often available, but not vim. It’s really annoying on many RHEL based distros, because I am so used to typing vim. Otherwise there is just git I deem essential.

Personally I didn’t like Deepin and I didn’t really use it for long so I can’t say much about it. Anyway, it is part of the the extra repositories of Arch, so you can expect a current and maintained version.

It should be the same for other Arch based distros. Just stay clear of Manjaro. It should not be used by anyone.

In general it is safe to install as many DEs as you want. There is some overlap between (user) configuration files though which might be annoying.

It should be fine to experiment, but you might need to restore some settings afterwards. For daily use I would just stick to one DE. Personally I don’t think there is really a reason to use multiple DEs as a single user. It would throw me off and mess with my workflow.

Also keep in mind that many DE also provide a set of default tools which add clutter. So you probably want to keep it low for this reason alone.

Just no!
