  • I am an Arch user and have been using hyprland on it for a while.

    I only asked about how it is on fedora cuz I’ve been considering switching to nobara. The only thing keeping me back is that I love to tinker. I know Arch is the best for that, but I’m considering dual-booting both with Nobara being used for gaming (although I will switch to like kde (x11), or i3 for gaming along with any graphically intense programs due to having an Nvidia card) and just about everythung else but will be keeping arch for whenever I want to like really tinker with something.

    Checked out that repo and may have to check it on a computer later.

    Thanks a lot!


  • How has your experience been with hyprland on fedora?

    Since hyperland is bleeding edge and almost always requires like the latest versions of some packages, did you need to use packages from fedora rawhide, or use an older version of hyprland due to the versioning of hyprland’s dependencies?

    What is needed to keep it well maintained? I know there’s a copr repo due to being a package that is too bleeding edge, and assuming you are using the copr repo (that is mentioned on the hyprland wiki), does the hyprland package get updated whenever the dependencies, not including the build dependencies, are updated in the main repo?

    I would love to try it out, though I’m an Arch user, but it all depends on what needs to be done prior to installing it, or how much maintenance is required to prevent it from breaking or even just crashing.




  • So if Gabe suceeds, we get a gaming ecosystem with different hardware sellers, all using a platform that other software sellers are not blocked from using (Linux)? And the only reason Valve wins, is because they invested into providing the best possible distribution platform on Linux?

    Yes. 100% correct


    I would also like to add that I think the main reason for the Steam Deck running Linux is because Gabe Newell himself has literally stated that he loves Linux and FOSS, which results in only Gabe, but the majority, if not all, of Valve wanting Linux to be a the gaming platform that it deserves to be. It also the reason why Valve forked WINE and made Proton.
