I'm sure no one in this community needs to be convinced to try Linux. But I love it every time I see a non-Linux person trying Linux and showing other people that it works. (Also nice to see that Jeff Gerstmann is still around and doing alright after getting screwed over by Gamespot for like 15 years.)

I don't want to be helped 🤣

YES! YOU ARE 100% CORRECT! YOU FINALLY GET IT I  want valve to fix up nix DE shit so I don't need to deal with this broken ass shit so I can stop complaining and have shit just work without the MS bloat. You've finally cracked the mind of the average person who isn't going to switch to nix for a buggy mess with nerds who lose their shit when you complain about bugs instead of getting on a trouble shooting session with the terminal and some nerd.

I don't want gamerconf to just have my resolutions show up in game. I don't want to have to copy a new device ID and update my environment variable every fucking time pulse audio changes my device id and I lose sound. I don't want to figure out why I can't turn my display off and then on without having to pull a plug or restart.

Congratulations on finally getting here and figuring out what I meant when I said it wasn't ready and some nerds will be here to gas light you.
