Can someone more plugged in than me show me what I gotta do to get that 'Discord Wayland sharing' working? I literally installed Vencord a month ago because every time I tried to share a window or my screen on discord it would hard crash.

HDR isn't all that great for gaming yet, in my opinion. It takes too much tweaking just to get it working, because apparently games/proton still aren't able to natively pass that metadata to Wayland?
Running every applicable game or all of Steam through Gamescope brings its own problems with how it handles the window, so I end up never using it at all. I just want it to be as simple as it is on Windows, man! π©
Also, VRR seems to make my screen flicker at an unnoticeably-high-but-still-irritating rate at random whenever I alt+tab, never figured that out yet...
Finally, I do wish there was a simpler, more paint.net-like editor rather than GIMP, and I'm sure it's out there somewhere, but otherwise basically every thing on that list of features works well enough for me.

I'd love to move to Linux but I play some old ass games that I've no idea if they'll work. I missed out a lot of games since my PC was pure ass and it's just something I like doing.
For eg I want to play OG Deus Ex (never done before), and do a replay of Morrowind with fancy mods. I also recently replayed Splinter Cell because I felt like it.

The fact is, if my favourite game doesn't run on Linux, Linux is dead to me.
Similarly to some software that has no direct alternatives.
Which sucks.

I used only Linux for years... guess i not care about games.
On the 5 distros i used, i had different problems that would make normal people uninstall the OS
I could ignore them because the benefits outweigh the problems, other people probably couldnt because they want a stable computer, not cool features
