I usually use my phones LTE (tethered connection via USB) when wifi doesn’t work during the install.
Nah, Diablo works fine on Linux.
I would stay away from Manjaro, it has a history or being unreliable due to the holding back updates for 2 weeks. EndeavourOS is getting recommended a lot recently, I’d go with that instead!
The EA launcher works just fine via Lutris. Source : I’m using it to play Mass Effect Legendary Edition perfectly fine.
Battle.net works as well, OW2 plays fine on Linux.
GOG & Epic work through Heroic Launcher as you mentioned.
As for a distro, I’d aim for something Arch based. Simply because you’ll get the latest drivers and mesa versions all the time, which is proven to increase FPS a ton over say, Ubuntu.
This is what I did. Gave my M1 air to my boyfriend for his coding classes and got a cheap used XPS 13, installed Arch on it and it runs much better than macOS.
Doesn’t it let YouTube ads go through? Because they use the same domains for videos and ads? AFAIK Pi Hole can’t block YT ads right?
I wish I didn’t have to pay for premium, but we’re all iOS users and we use Smart TVs and Chromcasts to cast and I’m not sure how to block ads on those (not Android TV, Samsung TVs).
If there’s a way to block ads there I’d love to know. I can’t really use AltStore either, I’ve tied it in the past and I don’t always have the means to refresh every 7 days.
Not sure how long but definitely 10+ years here. I didn’t comment much but when I did, it was to help people in the Unix subreddits (Linux / Ubuntu / elementaryOS / macOS / macOS Patching scene).
I was very active in the Mojave and Catalina patcher subreddits, as well as Opencore legacy. I replaced all my comments with “fuck spez” before nuking everything some time later.
