I can confirm that PopOS 22.04 is definitely running on X. wayland is officially coming when Cosmic releases.
That said, I see that Wayland is "available" if I want to manually switch to it - but it is definitely disabled as a default (and current) setting.
Wait, what? I'm on PopOS, with Nvidia GPU, and my "g-sync" VRR works fine.
That's what I'm doing! I used it to make a "blog" of all the things I had to learn to switch to Linux for my home drives and daily gaming rig. Complete with copy buttons on the code blocks so I can do a complete reformat in minutes!
Anecdotal, but I'm on PopOS and using wine/lutris - and I have yet to have a game not work.
I couldn't get the unofficial FF14 launcher to work, but the official ones is fine.
I did install steam, but so far haven't used it other than Valheim.
Edith Finch, Journey, Titanfall2, The Outer Worlds, FF14, WoW, GW2, Sea of Stars, No Man's Sky. Obviously not an extensive list, but 100% so far.
I'm with you - I don't know if I've seen those words together like that in that order.
Does that mean something like covid/extreme flu? "brief" tends to mean minor - so what "brief illness" is fatal?
Is this real? My brain just sees everything as a parody now.
I played it a few months ago, before 1.0, and honestly the difficulty pushes me away.
I expected for it to get harder over time, yes, but coming straight out of the tutorial I couldn't "succeed" on the first real game. Pretty sure I had everything on easy too. Maybe it was the second game, either way.
I sound like you, but I bet your answer is that we're buying groceries and preparing a lot of those meals.
Single parents or busy ones that can't do that have to buy ready food.
A classic tale of "it's expensive to be poor".
For me it was the reverse. Pop was the clear winner for several reasons. Plus I like System76 overall. I vigorously recommend Pop as a beginner/gaming choice.
But honestly, Ubuntu vs PopOS should not have been that different for you - they are extremely similar. Pop is cleaner with less bloat, and not beholden to Canonical.
To each their own of course, and having options is what makes switching great.
I honestly thought this was the default/classic answer, and am surprised at how far down it was.
I too just started Linux 2 weeks ago, and my search results led me to xrdp on host, and remmina on client.
It shows people are interested and exposure to Linux is growing. It's a good thing.
they are already posting from the future about it!
