Very interesting to see that Windows 11 is slightly ahead of Ubuntu. Clearly the Ubuntu experience isn’t that polished yet, as there are various driver issues. Still very interesting comparison. I sort of can’t believe you can play Cyberpunk on this thing.

    I think we have to give credit to Valve for making SteamOS as polished as it is. Even if you put a standard Linux OS on a handheld machine it’s not going to be a giant success without software optimization

      Yup and proton. It’s bonkers to think that I went from dual-booting windows ONLY for games, to being able to play almost anything on Manjaro.

    Glad to see the Linux numbers are looking pretty good right out of the box. I briefly tested ChimeraOS on my Ally but because it can’t boot from SD cards I was booting via a USB card reader and that was causing issues. Hopefully I can get a bigger SSD soon and dual boot, as there are still some reverse engineering things I want to get out of Windows and with WiFi support not working in Linux it’ll be a kernel release or two before it’s truly viable it seems.

      Is controlling such a small device / screen complicated? Do you use an external mouse / keyboard? I’m quite interested in getting one.
