Between two evils, Firefox is the comparative good guy. There's not a chance in hell I'm using anything based on Chromium, I've been using FF for close to two decades now and I've experienced very few dealbreaker issues.

Has anyone been able to get Nvidia Reflex working under DX11 titles using DXVK? I can get it working under DX12 titles using VKD3D and Linux native titles, but I can't get it working under DX11 titles.
Connect the Steam Deck to a compatible dock and you can quite easily use it as a desktop. At the end of the day, it's still an x64 based PC that's just handheld.
One of the biggest problems regarding Nvidia drivers is the fact that a small minority install them using Nvidia's .run script, which overwrites important libraries, resulting in a wide range of issues. I've always installed Nvidia drivers using my distro's package manager and I've never had an issue.
Linux user here running FF, no real dealbreaker issues at my end.
I've got plenty of old software here under Linux that still runs fine to this day across a number of PC's and even a Raspberry Pi that I use as a backup desktop. I honestly can't see backwards compatibility being any more of an issue than it is under Windows - There's a number of accounting packages released under Windows 7 that won't run under Windows 10, the latest version of most popular browsers won't run under Windows 7. Likewise, the latest version of MS Office 365 won't run under Windows 8.
My overview transition is seamless running X11.
RTX has worked under Linux both natively and via and Wine/Proton/DXVK/VKD3D for quite some time now.
I don't believe Nvidia were the one's being lazy in this regard, they submitted the merge request for explicit sync quite some time ago now. Wayland devs essentially took their sweet time merging the code.
Now all they need is a complete nvidia-settings application under Wayland that allows for coolbits to be set, and I may be able to use Wayland. For some reason, my RTX 2070S boosts far higher than the already overclocked from factory boost clocks, resulting in random crashing - I have to use GWE to limit boost clocks to OEM specs to prevent crashing.
Strangely enough, this was never a problem under Windows.

They're custom icons for Libre Office Write and Libre Office Calc. No MS Office here! Google Messages works perfectly as an official web app.

Did my part. If I have to run Windows along with a root kit to play a game, I'll stick to Linux.
TBH, the game wasn't really that great to begin with.
