  • The nice thing about distro choice is that you don’t really need to commit to one with them (mostly) being totally free. As long as you back up your files, I’d recommend trying a few until you feel comfortable. If you go with Ubuntu or Linux Mint I think you’ll have the easiest time. I’d tentatively recommend dual-booting to give a new distro a try without fully committing, but that brings its own difficulties and troubleshooting with it. Having a second machine to test with is also great, but it’s not a good option for everyone.







  • Do your issues appear on a fresh install? At my admittedly limited level of expertise, I’d probably start from there. If a clean install works properly, then something that’s happening later is messing it up. You’d have to keep track of changes you make to your system and check for issues as you go.

    If a clean install is borked from the get-go, maybe try different distros. Since Framework supports Fedora, I’m surprised that anything would go wrong.

    I don’t know if Framework offers any support or warranty, but you could check with them too.





  • They are the only real family oriented console AFAIK. At least on PC, there isn’t a huge emphasis on local coop. This makes a steam deck a harder sell to people just looking for the casual family games. Nintendo on the other hand is committed to releasing games like this with every generation, and they don’t seem big on games with a restrictive age rating. I’m sure that wins points with parents.

    I’d love to tell families that they should just buy a steam deck, but I don’t know if it’s the right choice TBH.

    You could argue that Doom was always more fantasy focused than sci if, but it doesn’t really matter. Doom doesn’t need to be about the same thing forever. They already had some fantasy/medieval vibes with enemies like marauders, those awesome swords, and some of the visual designs of the areas. I think they saw that it worked and decided to expand on it.

    IMO, it probably always needs to be about high-octane demon killing. If it stays true to that, it can still be called Doom.
