Apparently they don’t even test their updates anymore before to deploy them.
Another confirmed bug caused some systems to fail to shut down properly after installing the update. According to Microsoft, a separate fix has been issued to resolve the shutdown issue on certain Windows 11 builds.
So they fixed it a month ago after breaking it years ago and almost immediately break it again? lol
Hey Microsoft, unrelated question, how’s that “70% AI written code” directive working out?
The real fix was not using Win11 all along.
The real fix is running Linux.
In the last year, I’ve found that on my main machine, fedora is FINE.
I mostly surf, I’m not a gamer, and for me Linux ticks the boxes I need
YMMV you should do you; but my daily driver as a Linux box has been flawless
The thing is, I game. And I’ve found CachyOS to be performing better on games than Windows. In fact, I’m running Expedition 33 with forced FSR4 on a Navi 2 GPU (which isn’t supposed to support FSR4) and it performs better than with FSR3 on Windows. That honestly surprised me. Unfortunate that FSR is becoming a requirement for so many modern games (thanks UE5). And then there’s anticheat…
I might give catchyOS a try. I’ve been in bazzite for almost a year and haven’t had any issues.
But wait… If you haven’t had any issues, why bother trying something else?
That’s kinda where I’m at. Everyone says CatchyOS, CatchyOS, it’s smoother, stable, no issues. And I’m here on bazzite with all the same pros and cons list without seeing a different, I figured id try it myself since all the cons people seem to have on bazzite I haven’t had.
I’d say, don’t bother. For me, I was already on Arch, as I’ve been for years, so switching package repositories isn’t a big deal and I could just as easily switch back. So when I noticed some minor performance issues with Arkham Knight on base arch, I thought “why not”. There’s also the fact that Bazzite can’t work for me because of its immutable nature. If you’re happy with how things are going right now, I don’t think there’s a reason to switch. Of course, there’s always the “why not” factor for everyone :)
That’s a fair point. I’m mostly curious because installing flatpacks are just a bit of pain. I have to finesse it using the terminal. unlike Mint, where I can click it like a windows .exe and it installs. The other option is trying out Manjaro since that’s based off Arch and probably the closest to SteamOS in terms of distro.
Preach! (づ￣ ³￣)づ
