  • Not OC, but per my last experience with it NVENC was way easier to work with.

    You install the NVIDIA drivers, you install CUDA libs (in Fedora that’s separate, at least) and it works.

    For AMD, you need to figure out that you need the proprietary driver for AMF (which didn’t have a proper installer for anything that wasn’t Ubuntu the last time I tried it) or be stuck with the unfortunately not as good VAAPI. After that you usually had to hunt for guides on how to use the encoder in the program you want (OBS used to be a particular nightmare for it, hopefully it got better with time).

    I hope things got and continue to get better, specially since I’m 100% going to get an AMD setup after my laptop eventually dies.











  • but my English is not fluent

    that is one big barrier to entry that we should have at least some focus on trying to solve, depending on the distro you use they might have some communities that speak your language, on fedora we have a bunch of language-specific communities on our Matrix server, where people usually offer to help whenever needed






  • Simple, OP and some people just don’t know what they are talking about. There was no “aesthetic reason”.

    One of the big changes in GNOME 40 (that would be 3.40) was the introduction of GTK4. People used to assume that the gnome major versioning scheme was tied to GTK, so loads of people were asking the devs when GNOME 4 was coming out.

    To demistify this idea of one being tied to the other they just dropped the “3.”, specially since that part wasn’t that relevant and started with the 40.
