I think a good comparison is Bell Labs and AT&T. A lot of good work was done by Bell Labs but it was mostly enabled by AT&Ts monopoly.

There are more rolling release distributions like tumbleweed.
I use endeavour because I like Arch but don’t need to be bothered installing it the arch way more than once.

Is it just my hardware?
It is not your hardware
Am i using linux just wrongly for years?
Not really
Is it my fault?
Not really
The main issue from what I can tell is you are trying to play older windows games which can be pretty hit or miss. More recent pc games often support the steam deck which is usually a good sign for compatibility.
Gaming on Linux has greatly improved over the last couple years (especially thanks to proton/steam deck) but if you are trying to run older games that were never designed to run to it or you want to play online games with aggressive anti-cheat it is still going to be a bit of a struggle.
I would recommend sticking to an Arch based distro like EndeavourOS (as it is similar to the SteamOS) or a Debain based distro and not swap around too much so you can get a feel for it without having a bunch of things change on you all the time like package names and the like.
All that said if your jam is older windows games and you have access to windows and are tired of messing with the OS and just want to play games just use windows, try linux another day.
Some games are trickier than others for sure. Are you using protondb as a reference?
Anno 1404 is a 15 year old game with aggressive DRM so I could tell right away that it would be one of the more tricky titles.
It really comes down to if you are trying to use newer hardware or not. Debian based systems usually run fine out of the box on older systems.
For newer hardware your going to want new drivers and kernel versions which you get with a rolling release distro.
I’m sure one of his progeny will take up the grift
They are definitely AB testing things like rejecting ad blockers.
It’s time to move on, all the cool kids are driving wind stars now
Over the network can be hit or miss but the usb cable and the drivers from the AUR have yet to fail me
Nah if you’ve watched a relative age you can watch the decline happen.
Sure some people over 70 are still quite sharp but they are definitely the exception.
I would argue even 60 is too old. Fortunately I’m in Canada and our leaders are pretty young all around.
Lol there is no way Fox would put Couches in there
That works until it doesn’t. Though it has been a few years since there was a nice notable example.
3000s were good and the 4000s were bad value for a long time. I went AMD this generation for the first time. Gott a 7900xtx for a lot less than a 3080/4080. Prices have come down a bit though.
While everyone is talking about Walmart and universities I just see the reason the US will never have public health care
If you know anything about Lenovo you would know that if ARM laptops started to have high market share they would have like 35 mediocre models on offer in a year.
Some of the think pad lines are still good but their consumer offerings and a couple of the think pad lines are trash.
If you were a good manager you would have the skill to successfully manage that and everyone would be happy
That assumes they even know his age which they may not.
This is reported as a percentage and that’s what is tripping people up here.
You are not seeing a drastic rise in Linux usage you are seeing a large decrease in the use of desktop computers.
Linux is increasing because the only ones left using desktops are Linux users.
People more readily appreciate things that obviously directly affect them.
