Anyone using Linux-libre for gaming? in c/[email protected]

Anyone using Linux-libre for gaming? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I have been using GNU for so long now and what always annoyed me, was the fact that the last proprietary components of my OSs were always some kernel firmware blobs that are packaged with the official Linux kernel. Now I'd like to know if anyone has already tried the Linux-libre kernel on a modern system.

Any recommendation on antivirus that isn't annoying and don't give false positive on cracks? in c/[email protected]

I haven't used an Antivirus in years... That's one advantage of GNU OS's. I run cracks inside sandboxes which then run Wine and DXVK for compatibility.

Does anyone know if the Steam Hardware Survey identifies your OS even in the Flatpak version? Or will it detect the Freedesktop SDK?

50% still on Windows 10 is crazy. What is Microsoft going to tell them next year when the support runs out?
