For me it must be kde plasma 6 and the wayland driver for wine.
Edit: I made the question gendered by using the word guys. I've fixed my mistake.
It's amazing that Linux gaming is becoming a thing that's better sometimes than Windows gaming (minus the getting banned part in some games). I also like that AMD is making some big pushes on open source drivers, plus their ROCm open-source alternative to CUDA.
This is a great time for Linux users! :)
Plasma 6 for sure. I'm a Gnome user waiting with bated breath to see if it actually delivers the goods.
Always hoping for Nvidia to stop being bullshit. Definitely not buying from them again.
None in particular. Just the totality of the changes. Many of them are small default changes or usability changes, but when taken together it sounds like a nice, somewhat overdue bundle.
You can test it today. The feature freeze has happened already, thus nothing will change until the release
I don’t really know how to install something like a beta version of KDE, especially without messing up things on my own computer.
With an immutable system you can't fuck things up. I guess you aren't on one. In that case, use boxes and install it in a vm :)
Is it actually any good? I've seen some benchmarks that were not very promising but perhaps that'll change in the future ig.
Linux will eventually make it seriously to the desktop in the next few years, possibly going as high as 15%-20% of the userbase (in my country Greece it's already at 9%). But only because MS is going to destroy its Windows base by making it subscription etc.
Bcachefs, love COW files. I wish all file systems had it even if it naively copied the whole file on first write. Sort of a write safe hard link.
I'm looking forward to hardware and firmware hacking on a Framework laptop.
I'm still pretty new to Linux so I'm finding new stuff all the time, I've been very happy with EndeavourOS but I am planning to switch to vanilla Arch when Plasma 6 fully drops. There are other distros that have caught my attention, they're just abit beyond my skill level currently.
Only thing I'm really hoping for is improvements to Nvidia (Yes I will buy AMD next time I get the chance, I built this PC before I had any intention of using Linux)
