 niklaskorz | very opinionated topic, but my personal preferences are KDE Plasma 6 for fully featured desktop environments and Niri if I just want a tiling (and scrolling) window manager | 17:03:31 |
| niklaskorz | might give Cosmic a try again once it leaves alpha | 17:04:10 |
| niklaskorz | but regarding the room topic, you're best off with kwin6 right now if you want to game on wayland | 17:05:00 |
 Linux DADDY | Do cosmic and niri have decleartive options? | 17:06:37 |
| niklaskorz | Niri does, yeah | 17:06:44 |
| Linux DADDY | I do know kde have plasma manage or something | 17:06:50 |
| niklaskorz | it uses KDL but there also is a flake to configure it in Nix instead | 17:06:55 |
| Linux DADDY | Manager* | 17:06:59 |
| niklaskorz | cosmic doesn't afaik? | 17:07:24 |
| Linux DADDY | Probably as it is new. | 17:07:46 |
| niklaskorz | Niri had declarative config from the start, for Cosmic it just doesn't seem to be a priority | 17:08:11 |
| Linux DADDY | But can't argue as nix users are professionals | 17:08:13 |
| Linux DADDY | So my plan is to play salt and sanctuary in NixOS, I am getting some xna issues probably for changing their game xna to monogame in their latest update, and other things works fine as of now. | 17:09:57 |
| niklaskorz | works fine in proton too according to protondb, if you can't get it to run natively without issues | 17:11:39 |

I used heroic launcher as launcher and here is the issue log if someone want read please read and let me know | 17:11:53 |
| Linux DADDY | Their game even have linux native, but just available at steam, but i have same game but from epic games store and it's just windows build version and they do no have any plans to upload the linux native game build in epic store. | 17:13:27 |
| Linux DADDY | Even the dev said "i won't be offended" why? I asked him if i can play crack version of it, As i have the original game from epic store he did not get offended. | 17:15:20 |
| Linux DADDY | Fun fact crack version of the game work but not the genuine version. | 17:15:48 |
| niklaskorz | does Epic even support offering Linux versions of game? | 17:17:08 |
| niklaskorz | I know they have macOS binaries for some games, but probably not for Linux | 17:17:34 |
| Linux DADDY | No they don't, but with heroic game launcher almost most game works from epic store, and my assumptions are "xna 4.0 to monogame in their new game update 1.0.2.1" is the issue jn salt and sanctuary game, and i am totally clueless how to make it work. | 17:19:36 |

I know they have macOS binaries for some games, but probably not for Linux Since they don't support Linux, I'd guess they don't provide Linux versions | 17:19:40 |
| niklaskorz | GOG doesn't support Linux in their official client and yet they have some native Linux binaries, but then again GOG officially supports downloading games from their site instead of their launcher, unlike Epic | 17:20:23 |
| niklaskorz | * GOG doesn't support Linux in their official client and yet they have some native Linux binaries for games, but then again GOG officially supports downloading games from their site instead of their launcher, unlike Epic | 17:20:33 |
| Linux DADDY | niklaskorz do you game with nixos? | 17:21:22 |
| niklaskorz | yes, also using Heroic for my non-Steam games (including GOG, Epic, Rockstar Launcher, Ubisoft Launcher) | 17:21:51 |
| Linux DADDY | Have you founded any weird errors with heroic? | 17:22:35 |
| niklaskorz | I used to dual boot until this year but now fully switched to NixOS for all games | 17:22:39 |
| niklaskorz | no, not anymore | 17:22:41 |
| niklaskorz | I do run into the occasional issue like Ubisoft Launcher not working with ntsync, now that ntsync is enabled by default in proton-ge, but that's about it | 17:23:27 |
