It seems she's a better singer than a politician. I was made aware of this thanks to the newest Whang video.

Did it have more or less compatibility than it does now? Was it difficult to use? I started using Linux around 2016 and switched to it fully in 2020. In all my time I have only used WINE for gaming as most Windows desktop applications I have tried don't really work, not that I'd want to use many anyway. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm just curious to hear peoples experiences.

If so, what do you think about it? I just made the switch from endeavourOS. I had some technical issues at first but that's all fixed now and I'm really impressed. I thought I was done distro-hopping but apparently not.

I recently installed CachyOS and went about setting up fstab as I normally would. For some reason one of my HDD's is not mounting on start as it's supposed to. The one called 'Media III' is the one that won't mount automatically. I can mount it just fine in Dolphin. None of the solutions I have tried seem to work. I'd be grateful for any help offered. Thank you!

Does the controller work with Linux? If it does, is there a way to configure it like with the GameSir Nexus app on Windows?

I was planning on upgrading to a NVIDIA GPU because of its superior ray-tracing capabilities. In general I don't trust proprietary software and the only proprietary applications I use reguraly are Steam and MakeMKV. Even being closed source, wouldn't we be able to tell if the NVIDIA drivers and/or software was collecting telemetry and phoning home? Are there any other concerns beyond that? Sorry if this is a dumb question.
