From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm using it on Plasma 6 with AMD graphics and so far it's going good. When I had Nvidia I had issues with electron based applications. Games have been running pretty good regardless of the GPU, though Forza horizon 5 wouldn't launch under Nvidia for some reason.
Did you have electron/chrome applications flicker? I've been dealing with that since switching to Nvidia (I didn't want to but Plex only supports GPU encoding on Linux with Nvidia).
Yes, that was the exact issue.
Will probably be fixed with driver 555 next month (explicit sync support).
Yup, I'm cautiously optimistically waiting for it haha.
What distro out of curiosity been running a 3070 on nixos with hyprland/plasma6 and haven't had any issues
Same problem, 1070, NixOS Plasma
Arch with Plasma
Huh interesting I booted arch up to test and I'm not getting it there either I wonder if I got a miracle GPU or the only other thing is I use the linux zen kernel
