It is highly recommended that you use Lutris, Heroic Launcher or Bottles to prepare an environment for the SW you are trying to run. This offers the most flexibility.
To use the official Steam Proton, you need to add an “external game” which will be the SW you want to run.
Elden Ring for every season, it’s rough out there…
Real talk: I waited 2 years to play Elden Ring with the DLC so I’m all set for Autum and Winter.
Then Space Marine 2, but I will finish Space Marine 1 first.
Hands!!! The hands!!!
I saw the other comments, BTRFS appears to work fine, I wouldn’t use it because it is unfinished (there are some features not ready according to the status page) but I guess it is stable.
What do you mean splitting the disk? I just recently removed windows, moved and resized both boot and primary partition to take over all the space, now it is a pure Ext4 disk. I would not use BTRFS for your use case but that is up to you.
You can install shit in Windows too, it is exactly the same case when grandma installs too many toolbars in Internet Explorer 6. No one is warning you there that you might be installing malware.
What I mean is that there are already curated repositories for each distro that can be accessed easily by the package manager. If you go outside of your package manager and repos, gloves are off, you better know what you are doing.
Regarding custom ROMs, since you brought it up and being a custom ROM enthusiast, there are still a lot of complaints, nastiness and pressure from the users similar to this. Installing a ROM has definitely a higher knowledge barrier and that makes you aware of the risks, also you will brick your phone before you are able to install a ROM… if you don’t know what you are doing.
Finally, the developer here in this very lemmy post mentions that the OP of that bug report was working with them in order to solve the issue. The one on the screenshot was just a random dude unnecessarily being rude. Free software is usually delivered as is with no warranties, specifically small projects and libraries.
Thanks for coming to my TED.talk
There is always a risk using libraries from others. If you install something without knowing what you are doing and without considering the risks, you should not be installing it.
You need to provide more info my dude, do other programs support your controller? Are you wired or by Bluetooth? Did you check the Arch wiki?
I mean they don’t understand SW, Licenses and Git. It’s all out there now…
