With WinApps you do the bulk of the setup manually, and there’s no cohesive interface to bring it all together. There’s a basic TUI, a taskbar widget, and some CLI commands for you to play with.

WinBoat does all the setup once you have the pre-requisites installed, displays everything worth seeing in a neat interface for you, and acts like a complete experience. No need to mess with configuration files, no need to memorize a dozen CLI commands, it just works.

Why Chatgpt and not Gemini? Also why no vpn? You could have put VPN by Google

We have Wine / Proton of course and they can run a lot, but not everything is possible. WinBoat is different. Instead of running compatibility layers, it runs a real copy of Windows using Docker and KVM under the hood. The developer explains it should run basically everything unless “it requires strong GPU acceleration or kernel-level anticheat”. It uses FreeRDP for showing the apps on your Linux desktop, enabling you to interact with them like you would with any other Linux app.

I don’t want to sound rude, but maybe read the article and not just the headline before asking questions

The real pineapple is the friends we made along the way

Yeah, in general nobody should compete with anybody as long as we don’t live in a fully automated gay space communist utopia were everyone’s disadvantages are compensated. I’m sure this is what transphobes actually want

Maybe a bit of a stretch calling this a meme

Specific enough?

Btw Wunderwaffen is the plural, wonder weapon would be Wunderwaffe

Timeshift is designed to only backup every few days (or however often you like), you just have to now at which day the system was still working. Sometimes the issue simply doesn’t appear when trying again, sometimes it’s not an error with your system so if you wait a newer update can be installed

Not sure if that’s as necessary with a atomic distro

Yeah heroic is very similar. Bazzite officially recommend Heroic for Epic, GOG and Amazon and Lutris for everything else, but Heroic has a simpler experience imo

For installing games i recommend looking at protondb, it will show you if a game will run/what fixes it needs. Where are you getting your games from? For I steam you should have a good experience with the official client, for Epic/GOG/Amazon I recommend Heroic (though lutris is fine too). If you use a other launcher your experience will be probably be suboptimal.

Bazzite is based on Fedora Atomic, so you will probably not be interacting with that part of the system at all. The official Bazzite docs are pretty good for general stuff, I also found gardiner bryants guide(s) to be helpful for getting started. If you have questions here is !bazzite@lemmy.world, however it’s not that active so I’d post to a more general linux community aswell

I recently switched to Blorp. It’s still somewhat early in development, but overall is really nice.

Btw the Blorp issue should be resolved (check if your running 1.9.16)

I assume 99% of Lemmy users have and adblocker

Coincidence?

Same issue with piefed.zip
