    I’ve loved using Linux on my steamdeck to game, but sadly I cant really switch because of lossless scaling. LSFG is too good to stop using, and there’s no Linux equivalent. not even afmf2 works on linux

      Use whatever you want

      Don’t let the Linux fans try to tell you that Linux is this amazing thing that can fix all your problems.

        It is amazing, but it doesn’t mean it’s amazing at everything. You don’t need to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

          And it CAN fix all your problems. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to fix the problems yourself.
          Which is often more than I can deal with. Thankfully - so far at least - all my problems are problems other people have encountered and have documented (and - in many cases - contributed to various projects to get the fix to more people)

        Linux is, in general far better than windows in my experience. its just that certain must-have applications are only available on windows

      Gamescope is technically lossless scaling without the framegen. Technically it should be possible to add to gamescope.

        yes, but lossless scaling is closed source and the developer has decided not to try adding Linux support. supposedly its because of it’s reliance on windows capture apis
