Are you just dead set on a Linux machine for gaming or do you just want something less intrusive than windows? Idk I can't really grasp the idea your going for here. It seems like gaming is better in any other method than what your trying. Maybe you like the new territory exploring possibilities like I do.
Anyways, if your seriously trying to do some new kind of Linux gaming, I can't help, power to you. Your smarter at that than I...
Curious though, I'm trying any old PC game I can get my hands on in my Samsung phone. I'm using winlator and having some very weird and very exciting results. Last month I was reliving fallout 3 and new Vegas at 35 fps with mods, accidentally closed the app while duplicating instances created an unrecoverable crash, whoops... Now I'm playing parkitect, streets of rogue and Galactic civilizations 3 right on my phone. Slow but no crashing as of now
I was happy on Win11 until Microsoft did an update that basically bricks my machine. I have to then do clean install and can only use Win11 one month until Microsoft overrides my "do not update setting" and updates and re-bricks my machine.
I’m documenting my real world experience trying to use Linux for gaming the real games I love.
So many of the Linux Gaming videos and articles are written by Linux experts and they brag about how good it is. I’m documenting what happens when an average user tries. Honestly documenting the good, bad and ugly.
I’m not cherry picking games to make Linux look good or bad, just documenting getting the games I actually play running on Linux.
sorry I don’t know anything about phones and my programming experience is BASIC on TRs 80’S and commodore Vic 20s.
