SteamOS massively beats Windows on the Legion Go S

I don't particularly enjoy the downvotes people get on here for dissenting opinions. I liked the old school Reddit mentality of "if it adds to the discussion".
Any dissent = black and white judgement sometimes.
I was trying to say the US Dems aren't the same as the Republicans. I did state I didn't like them either and listed something Biden did that's good. Someone accused me of defending genocide and a plethora of other things afterwards.
Oh -- yeah, anything but advocating for opposing democrats at all costs is "defending genocide" to a large population of lemmy. It's pathetic.

From what I can tell, at least in this specific instance, aubertlone has only received downvotes for comments they made that were directly attacking or insulting those with differing opinions from themselves. I believe their initial comment before the edit did add positively to the discussion.
I can't speak to the second part of your comment, but I'm sorry to hear that you received that response to your opinions.

Amd makes the drivers for both Linux and Windows brotha.... So Microsoft wasn't able to fix something the open source community in collab with amd could?...
I don't know the business negotiations of all that. But if you watch the video, Phawx basically uses one single command to lower the wattage on his Windows handheld and instantly triple the expected battery life. The underlying OS clearly supports it. Seems to me like the AMD driver just isn't detecting that the game has light power needs and so isn't throttling like it should.

I know you're just trying to bait folks, but I think you can play it on Linux using Xbox cloud gaming.

People are basic and dumb, they love shit.
No shit? Guess I'll stay with Windows.
Who knew people so used to shit would want to continue enjoying it?

Dave’s got a lot of mileage out of that video. Famous overnight essentially! Seeing this type of article everywhere

At some point in the future I'll come find you and remind you of what you took from me.
That's what that Mountain Goats song is about!

People still play Fortunate? My keyboard's autocorrect isn't even aware of it.

SteamOS massively beats Windows
-
That's still an average of over 10% FPS gains overall. Similar improvement to a new GPU generation, but on the same hardware. Sounds pretty massive to me.
and 20% in a couple. That's pretty massive considering we're talking about the exact same hardware.

SteamOS massively beats Windows
Linux massively beats Windows
History has been made.

99% of games work on Linux, the 1% that don't happen to be all the major multiplayer games people acturally want to play

Whats this suppose to mean? That 1% just tells Linux users that the developers & publishers simply don’t care enough about their product.

Most AAA games run on Linux, it's mostly the anti-cheat ones that refuse to enable Linux support that don't. Sadly, there's nothing Linux devs can realistically do to fix that, it's something the devs need to do.
I try to mention this caveat in most "Linux > Windows" threads. It's important to know what works and what doesn't, and why.

I don't think Fortnite is shit. I've never played it, but I have to assume it's popular for a reason. Frankly, I think it would be great if it did run natively on Linux. The more options people have to play the games they want, the better. As Linux gaming continues to become more mainstream, developers will continue to take note to ensure compatibility.

Which one is cheaper?
Does it being cheaper makes the performance difference bigger?

I mean, it's pretty clear that you are just dummy wrong.
It's pretty clear that talking to you is useless.
You're not gonna make me bad by calling me names lmao.

I don’t find arguing semantics to be very productive, which I think is the reason you are being downvoted. The differences between SteamOS and Windows on the Legion Go are very significant, with SteamOS gaining as much as hours of extra gameplay, in addition to modest performance gains and major improvements to usability and quality of life. And yes, the Windows tax is very much a part of the big picture even if it’s not mentioned in the article. With Windows preloaded, you are paying $100-200 more for a significantly worse product. I don’t see any reason to engage in Windows apologetics over this, especially here.
I'm sorry who is engaging in windows apologetics? Not me frfr

An improvement of 5-10 fps doesn't seem like a lot, but it's like buying a newer gen graphics card, at least for some games. Or what you would achieve with a medium to substantial overclock. In this case it's just the OS though. Just the software.
You care so much about glorifying linux everything else falls away.
What else? Nitpicking at the use of words in news articles?
What I'm personally more skeptic about is the actual numbers. We don't have benchmarks. We just have this one table that shows fps, and no 1% and 0.1%s.
My nitpicking or did I say the word massively isn't really applicable here?
It's really been interesting to read all the comments here. People here are very personally invested in their OS of choice on their gaming handheld.
I mean we see the whole gamut here that stickman argument talking about things I never mentioned, etc etc etc

only one proselytizing anything here is you, bud.
and you seem to be proselytizing for windows with how insistent you are to try to handwave and rugsweep the increases in performance and usability
Buddy get over yourself. Geez, it's so clear that people just love the mobthink around here regarding Linux.
Feel free to take a second look at any of the comments I made in this thread and tell me how many of them are regarding windows. Literally all of the other comments/commenters have been bringing up windows and 20 different things I never mentioned.
Also I'm pretty sure you don't know what that word you use twice mean so here's the definition.
I NEVER advocated for you or anyone to use windows over steamos. I just said the improvements weren't massive
