I start: the most important thing is not the desktop, it’s the package manager.

    thats the furthest from being defensive, more like aggressive against a piece of shit piece of software, but whatever dude

      The people trying to help you that you’re being so rude to are not the software you’re upset with. You shouldn’t be taking it out on others; especially not people being kind to you and just trying to help you. (Extra especially considering Beehaw’s whole thing is to ‘bee nice!’)

        (something is wrong with the replies, it shows me yours two times so idk whats happening right now, i also replied to the wrong thing just now) i dont see much kindness here, just something i have heard way too much about (not like anybody here knows), but ill stand by the point of the post, if id known the pain going through trying to make things work (and often failing) id have never bothered

      Sure.

      What i don’t follow is why you’re having this experience, when for the average user is click to install and play out if the box for many many games.

      If it’s not the game, because you’ve checked protondb, and it’s not the software, because you’ve installed multiple distros i feel like you’ve either got some super unique hardware challenge or you’re making a unlikely mistake. Heaven forbid people ask you if you’ve done things that are obvious, we’re just trying to help. Nothing sucks more than sinking time into getting a game to work for it to fail.

      Regardless, based on highly emotional responses to many posts my guess is that you’re the root cause of your own problems.
