Many people are not activists like Richard Stallman. Perhaps it's better to run libre software, but it's perfectly reasonable to also run proprietary software.
For example, I switched to Linux when I could run proprietary games on Proton.

This post does not belong here. This is not a post about technology.
I'm using Manjaro. Firefox is the distro's default browser.
For me, VRR is crucial as I play a lot of FPS games or else, I don't feel that the mouse is the extension of my hand. That's why I switched from Gnome to KDE.
In KDE, I agree. I have an AMD video card and I've been gaming in KDE Wayland for quite a while now.
Yup, this is huge. Wayland gaming is now a possibility. With Explicit Sync (needed for NVIDIA users) and VRR, there's now no excuse to keep gaming in X11 in both DEs.
Nonsense. This is huge, as I suspect many people, like myself, switched to KDE because it was the DE that was perfect for gaming in Wayland.
So this is huge for the community! Gaming is now possible in two of the most popular and used DEs.
As for the weather application. Don't blame GNOME, blame the weather provider (OpenWeather).
It's all about getting users to buy new PCs that can run the AMAZING AI! (I'm being sarcastic here). It's good for AMD and Microsoft's pockets.
In the '90s and early 2000s, Microsoft's business model was the classic one of selling products to customers. Today, it's all about the cloud, advertising, and AI, where the product is the user.
I agree. Lemmy is not Twitter like, it is Reddit like, it is a forum.
Are you into gaming? If not, then it is perfectly fine to run the nouveau driver.
