minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year ago4th gen is very old, so windows being really bloated and inefficient probably cut support for it. Try linux if you are interested. The day to day performance is actually really good (except gaming ofc)
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink6•1 year agoThe gaming performance is mostly really good as well. Some windows-only games even run better on Linux (some also won’t run at all ofc)
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoit’s good, but not perfect. KSP through proton works perfectly though, so I don’t mind
minus-square@Nibodhikalink4•1 year agoKSP has a native version for Linux that used to be better than the Windows one because it was actually 64 bits. Has that changed?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year agonope, but I like using windows targeted KSP mods
minus-square@Nibodhikalink1•1 year agoShouldn’t mods be cross platform though? In most games mods are implemented by the game engine so they’re not platform specific, KSP is Unity based and I’m fairly confident that other Unity games have cross platform mods.
