       @boilingsteam They are focusing so much effort on the new cosmic desktop in rust. That they are neglecting properly maintaining the operating system. This has left a lot of unresolved bugs and causes instability in a once stable operating system. They either have to get their shit together and fix PopOS 22.04 LTS, or push out a new release soon before they bleed out anymore of their user base. On a side note their hardware still rocks.

       @5cupsofcoffee@freeatlantis.com @boilingsteam You're misinterpreting the data. It's not the number of users, but the percent of posts to ProtonDB. An arbitrary metric which only applies to PC gamers.This is akin to survivorship bias. A high number of posts from Arch Linux users doesn't necessarily mean that there are more Arch Linux users. It may be that they spend more time configuring their system than actually playing games, or that they are particularly vocal about sharing their configurations.

       Our QA team tests a wide variety of hardware configurations, which will generally apply to most x86 hardware that shares similar components. We may not be able to test all hardware, but I believe the support to be of a very high caliber due to the testing.There are always a few systems with regressions from kernel, driver, and firmware updates; but those won't be issues specific to Pop!_OS, but any system shipping that particular kernel, driver, or firmware.

       @boilingsteam in 2024, I think Pop! being Ubuntu based is hurting it's perception. That would sound like crazy talk just 3 years ago.

       @Ben yeah there is some truth to that. Ubuntu has clearly lost its way
