Linux users constantly talk about how Linux just works and Windows is garbage, but then half these comments are talking about how you should buy an entirely different computer to make Linux run with FEWER issues.
Windows may have it's problems, but I don't need to buy an entirely new PC to make it work. AMD, Nvidia, Intel, doesn't matter. It just works.
I am literally using Linux right now. Busy spending all my hours trying to fix it and make it work.
Why does Steam only download at 100Mbps max, when Windows downloads at 1500Mbps? Would appreciate any help trying to make basic functions work. Thanks.
You know you can use multiple operating systems and stop shilling for one, right?
I've been Googling for hours, and people say to disable IPv6 and install DNSMASQ. Neither fixed it.
Honestly might just go back to Windows. I can't continue to waste my life troubleshooting the most basic shit in the world. It's not like my entire PC is slow, it's just Steam.
Perhaps I will try Linux again for the 80th time in a few months to see where it sits then.
I don't expect you to help me. The Linux community doesn't help, they just sit there and attack people, and then wonder why their OS gains 0.000001% market share every year.
Also I didn't talk like a moron. I said Linux doesn't "just work", and the irony is that you refuse to help me fix something on linux that should "just work".
And why you didn't mention such important detail in the beginning? "Steam on windows downloads faster than steam on linux" is much different from "browser on linux downloads faster than steam on linux".
I am literally using Linux right now. Busy spending all my hours trying to fix it and make it work.
And I even attached a screenshot of the Linux desktop.
It's clear that I'm saying that I'm spending hours fixing Linux to make Steam (on Linux) download at full speed, while (Steam on) Windows downloads at full speed.
You probably fucked something up and are blaming Linux not “just working.” I’ve installed many distros on many machines, my servers, my laptops, my desktop I’m on right now… they all connected at full speeds. In other words, it just works.
I literally clicked "install". But yes, please, blame me. That's how you push away new users, by blaming them, instead of understanding things don't "just work" on Linux.
My browser getting the full speed shows that it's not my connection being set to half duplex.
This thread is utterly braindead but nvidia users are not completely out of luck. Use the proprietary drivers with xserver instead of wayland and it works fine (speaking from personal experience). Xserver has it's own issues and will probably be phased out in favour of wayland in the future but hopefully by then, it will be able to support nvidia better.
