  • AUR is not to be compared to arch packages.

    Warning: AUR packages are user-produced content. These PKGBUILDs are completely unofficial and have not been thoroughly vetted. Any use of the provided files is at your own risk.-

    https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository

    And exactly this is the reason it is its biggest flaw. People don't read what AUR actually is.

  • Really good post and as a daily linux user for quite some time, I can relate.

    I also strive for simplicity so I try to minimize the use of anything which isn't in the official repos of a distribution. This is a big one, because depending on your use-case this trims down the applicable distros to your specific needs quite a bit. e.g. do you need up-to-date packages/firmware/drivers, you have to look at rolling-release distros. Do you not have these requirements and looking for stability then you can look at point releases (LTS) on the other side of the spectrum.

    What most linux enthusiast forget to take into consideration is the willingness to use the command line. If you are very reluctant to use a terminal you should look e.h. for distros which give you the ability to configure almost everything through built-in GUIs e.g. OpenSuse's Yast (Leap, Tumbleweed etc.) or Gnome focused distros (Ubuntu etc.) This also links into trying out the different package managers and their commands, some of them will seem more straightforward (apt install, zypper install) whereas others are more obfuscated (pacman -S, xbps-install). Searching for packages (apt search, zypper search, pacman -Ss/-Qs whatever, xbps-query)

    In terms of desktop environments/window managers I also strive for simplicity, but I am willing to invest some time to setup the initial configuration. If you want something which works out of the box you need to try out different ones. KDE is a sure hit on most of those use-cases (esp. gaming, being very customizable although I'd recommend to not fiddle too much, similar workflow to Windows) if you feel comfortable with the workflow of Gnome, this might also be something for you (kind of tablet/phone). Otherwise go into the rabbit-hole of smaller WMs like openbox, labwc or if you are using terminal applications a lot, twms, i3, riverwm etc.

    Valve needs to step up on Anti-Cheat

    So yeah, I want to discuss or point out why I think Valve needs to fix Anti-Cheat issues. They have VAC but apparently its doing jackshit, be it Counter Strike 2 (any previous iterations) or something like Hunt: Showdown the prevalence of cheating players is non deniable. For me personally it has come to a point that I am not enjoying playing those games anymore, although they are great games by itself. But the amount of occurrences being killed or playing against cheaters is at a height, where I don't see the point anymore.

    • Why I think Valve is the only company able to something against cheaters?

    Because they have the tools with VAC already aiming to prevent cheaters. Valve has got the resources to actually invest into something more profound which could be used for any game where anti-cheat protection needs to be implemented. And lastly Valve is the company which is interested in furthering the ability to gaming on Linux, the anti-cheat solution needs to work
