  • I run AMD now but ran Nvidia for years (RIP Evga). I had no issues with ether DE, other than the occasional update breaking things (only an issue with Sid) but that’s what you use timeshift to rollback for when something breaks and apt-listbugs to be aware of issues before you update.

    Note you can swap between X11 and Wayland on KDE by just changing the session on login.


  • I use KDE but that is out of habit and preference I have used them all and they all have pros and cons. Debian doesn’t customize them at all so there is no Debian specific DE for stable or sid.

    It’s all about how they make you feel using them. also the nice thing is you can use gnome apps on kde and kde apps on gnome so unless you super care about theme there is no down side.

    Like my favorite scanner app is Document Scanner for gnome and when I’m on gnome my favorite text editor is Kate. Yeah you’re doubling your needed disk space for libraries but disks space is cheap and your going to use up more space with flatpaks anyway.



  • Debian is great for gaming just takes a little work. I run Debian sid and that has its pros and cons but I do it to have super updated packages and to help report bugs. But running stable with a mix of flatpaks and backports works great as well.

    Debian is great since it’s just super vanilla packages from upstream for you to make it the way you want it.

    My heart goes out to you. The climate extremes are going to make that even worse. The only comfort i get is when the head of Security for the rich in their bunkers they have built to ride out social collapse. Tosses them out on their ass and take over the bunker. Cause their money no longer means anything. How sad is that?



  • i have been doing Linux for 22 years and know it in and out for the most part and you never stop copying and pasting. sometimes I know it fully and still copy and paste out of pure laziness for longer one liners. but best advice I can give is. Don’t ever feel like your not good at Linux case you use a DE vs window manager. or use one distro vs another. There is some gatekeeping people do just like with any hobby/community. Just ignore them and enjoy learning something new.

    Trust me, you will miss the wonder of learning and playing with a new interface and ways of doing things. its funny I go the other way now loading up windows 3.1 in DOSbox just to play and try and remember how to do things and get things working.
