From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Did you file a bug report with the Sunshine devs?

Ooh, you are right, I can actually file bug reports or try to fix it myself now that I switched to FOSS from Windows. Tbh that didn't really occur to me, since I was switching only like a month ago. I'll look into it, so far I suspect that it's actually covered by one of those troubleshooting cases mentioned in their FAQ, and I'm not really confident enough to start recompiling libraries with additional flags. Especially since I'm on Nobara and don't want to break anything, AFAIK that OS is pretty customised from the start and figuring out what I can safely touch isn't something I have the guts for yet.
