I’m admittedly not much of a networking expert, but you might be able to improve your existing network by running Ethernet backhaul for your mesh network (assuming your access points support it).

Regarding whether you would benefit from a router like that: I’ve only got a 25Mbps connection, so my main use case for it is using ZeroTier to access various services on my local network, more advanced firewall controls, and the dual 2.5G Ethernet ports for connection between my main PC and home server.

I recently switched from my ISP’s combo device to a GL-inet Flint 2 (https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-mt6000/);;) no complaints with it thus far, and I’ve enjoyed some of the quality of life features it’s got built into it.

Fedora Server, with most of the services I need running via Docker.

Welcome to the club!

The only game I can’t play is rocket league.

Have you tried it on Heroic Games Launcher yet? I play RL from time to time with a buddy, and both of us have gotten it to work without any notable issues via Heroic.

I really hope they fix the issue with the picture-in-picture video not staying over top of all other windows; that’s the only thing keeping me from using Wayland Firefox right now.

Snagged a 6800 XT for $510 USD a few months back. It's a beast of a card, and I'm very content to enjoy the performance I've got for quite a while to come. Unfortunately AMD doesn't bring their cool features to Linux right away, so I'll have to wait a while for stuff like Fluid Motion Frames (if it ever ends up coming to Linux at all).

Yes, in further testing I've seen purple artifacting around smokes, and sometimes around molotovs. It seems to be worst with the smokes, though.

Bit late to the party, but so far the game seems to be working fine on my Manjaro install (running Wayland+Pipewire, RX 6800 XT).

TLJ higher than the prequels is a bold statement. That was the movie that convinced me that new Star Wars was dead on arrival.

ROTS being so low actually surprises me a bit; what’s your reasoning for that? If you haven’t checked it out, I strongly recommend the novelization of ROTS, it’s one of the best Star Wars novels I’ve ever read.

Dang it, I got especially excited because I thought FaceIt was finally going to support anti cheat/their client on Linux for CSGO, too. Glad to see that BBR is getting some love, but c’mon, FaceIt…

CSGO and Northgard both have native clients; I think Northgard’s native client has an issue where you can’t use the Steam overlay in-game, but I believe that’s some sort of OpenGL glitch. Otherwise they’re both pretty flawless.

Star Control II for sure. Fantastic game, still one of the best story-based games I've played. Heavily inspired a lot of more modern franchises, too, including Mass Effect.
