Eh, I don't at flatpak or snap unless I have no other choice, but i get why it would be annoying to have the delay.
That being said, I wouldn't be concerned until almost a month. It's a big update that's going to need more debugging than usual. Makes sense to hold back for a bit.
Once you get it set up, all the anxiety goes away.
Back your shit up, and do it. Games that can't be played on Linux at all are decreasing. A dual boot setup solves that problem entirely.
Yeah, proton can take a bit to get set up and running, but there's plenty of help for it out there with a search. And, again, you'll still have the dual boot option. Linux really does cut down on the bullshit.
Because redundancy is a good thing.
Being real? Sponsor ads in video are fine by me. It's no different than tv and radio did for ages. The individual vidiots hawking whoever sponsers them just isn't an issue. It's as easy the tune out as radio spots used to be.
If YouTube's direct ads weren't fucking obnoxious, I wouldn't even object to those, but they crossed into obnoxious a decade ago with those.
It's the freaking combined wall of ads that happens when it's all together that is infuriating. You've got ads before a video, during, it, after it, splashed new below and beside it. It's just crap, and gods forbid you misclick and go back, it starts all over again.
Yah, if it gets handled, you won't see it usually. You have to go looking. I'd have to Dick around on the web version to find the handled issues (no need on my part, so I don't use it enough to remember), but it is there somewhere.
