    Just two years ago I switched back from popos to Windows for HDR (no mainline support at the time), Logitech gaming mouse/keyboard support (basic m/k functionality worked but the programmable keys were spotty), motherboard temperature monitoring SW (motherboard too new to get reliable values), and occasional instability or weird rendering in gaming (Nvidia).

    Linux works great for some scenarios. Development in Linux is great. But it depends on your use cases.

      one of the things I’ve been happy about in the last 24mo, is the HDR and NVIDIA support. until last year I was still using my old 2070 (non super) as I was waiting to upgrade.

      that became more and more rock solid on the open NVIDIA driver.

      when KDE put HDR into stable and then proton got HDR. now Firefox and Chrome. I’ve been in bliss. I don’t even get this good of HDR support on windows and I still have that on a secure NVME for work lol


      there is 2 apps for modifying Logitech kbd controls. I don’t use either, but I would take a look at some wikis if you try again. personally I just avoid logi for anything but mice and webcams. also avoid Razr for anything, backdoors in their drivers are just plain stupid.


      motherboard sensors I can get, I have a issue with mine with lmsensors, I’m a longtime Linux user so I can navigate to fix that with some dkms kernel modules… but I totally get how and why this would be a issue and full blame lmsensors for being too bloody slow mainlining sensors… license shenanigans are a pain.
