    Oh yeah I’m still trying, not giving up on this. I really want to make this work. I can’t stand the way Windows locked me out from my PC because I upgraded my CPU the day I was gonna play Baldur’s Gate 3 with a friend for the first time.

    Gamepass being better than it has any right to be is absolutely making me keep a Windows partition until they pull some BS move that sours me. I will try some other distro another person told me to give a shot for my general usage. I hope that it will help me get the AMD FSR stuff running because I feel like I’m not getting everything out of my hardware if I can’t use the upscaling.

    Your description of 99% describes perfectly the last time I tried to start using Linux. Since then, I had to learn to navigate GitHub for work so a lot of things were easier. My friends look at me like I’m an alien when I try to explain them what I had to do to make the Xbox wireless controller work. When they saw me run a command in the terminal to initiate the pairing, they were…unimpressed.
