  • I started with Ubuntu and slowly tried getting used to Gnome over the course of a few months (mainly using windows, every now and then hopping into Ubuntu when not gaming). I learned of KDE, tried it in Kubuntu, and it all instantly clicked for me. I switched over in about a week and haven’t had much reason to boot Windows since.

    It turned out that front-facing experience was incredibly important to me.

    VRR is fantastic for games, I really notice the difference and I use Wayland because of it.

    The downside to that is (from my understanding) Wayland forces some form of Vsync on everything, so if you don’t have a VRR monitor then games can become very stuttery and have noticeable input lag. There is an option to “force lowest latency” which supposedly allows screen tearing for things like games, though I didn’t test how well it worked myself.

    If people are interested in experimenting, then VRRTest is a great utility to see what VRR is doing and to test various settings.
