Edit: Yo, I'm not saying this is gonna happen. I just want to say that Windew's UX sucks ass.

I'm glad gaming has come so far but it still fuckin sucks. Waiting hours for shders to compile, all the bandwidth used to download those shaders. Then the game still runs like shit compared to windows.

Don't get me wrong. I still only use Linux and have for like 8 years. But that doesn't mean it's not shite. But I don't really game like I used to. My main issue is applications like Adobe and CAD software. We need that to support Linux

Have you been playing the dead space remake? FreeCAD just made a big leap BTW (to be fair I was happy enough using it before, but I understand people's complaints)

Hey so im not sure if this applies to you but ive been told to skip the shaders compile and it works just fine. I found that to be true for linux mint with steam. Apparently its not really doing anything? I could be wrong.

If you are talking about the dialog box that comes up before a game loads in steam.

Ye. Sometimes it works if I skip but some games stutter like crazy without it

I have subpar performance in some games but i dont think any steam games. Ill pay attention next time and maybe compile if its not working well. Honestly wasnt sure if it was an nvidia driver thing, proton thing, or apparently a shader thing lol
