Tearing and stutters in fullscreen emulators under GNOME Wayland (NVIDIA)
This probably isn't what you're looking for, but by enabling this: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/kylegospo/gnome-vrr/ you can get vrr/vsync on Wayland for gnome, it can cause flickering but otherwise it's pretty good and got rid of any tearing and stuttering for me.

I LOVE GNOME - but it's completely unusable.
You can grab the patch from https://github.com/KyleGospo/gnome-vrr and build it.

Losing hope for GNOME Wayland VRR

GNOME 44 is in the Testing repos now!
Based on the comments in the AUR repo, I'd assume that the maintainer still invests time trying to update mutter-vrr. There seems to be a non-trivial issue when rebasing on Gnome 44, but I'm not able to assess how complex the problem actually is. (https://github.com/KyleGospo/gnome-vrr/issues/5)

Why no gsync under wayland?
Currently you can either use a Wayland DE that supports VRR, I know KDE has support for it, or use the gnome-vrr copr or build it yourself from his GitHub.

Gnome VRR PKGBUILD
Just wanted to share my updated PKGBUILD to enable VRR in Gnome 43.2. The original author has no time to update his AUR package it seems so i updated it myself with the sources from the Fedora COPR.

- Steam Download Speed Slow on Linux Compared to Windows 10/11

Very slow download speeds in Linux but normal in Windows..
Anyone else noticing this? I don't believe I'm going insane. For a while now my download speeds, regardless of chosen server, are always slower in the Linux client compared to in Windows. Is the only appropriate place to post about this here -> https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Steam-for-Linux ? Would be great to know that I'm not the only one being affected.
- Steam ignores the "Later" button on client updates

steam can't load
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues Its seems to be a problem happening only to Nvidia GPUs. Not only Mint but many other distros A temporary solution is to open Steam from the Terminal using "steam -vgui"
- Problems Downloading Steam
-
Stable update today - Please read the forum post
I just spent a few hours working on that problem that Steam takes very long to appear. I did not have xdg-desktop-portal-gnome installed, and Steam is the only application that has that problem, so it's not the one from the update forum post. What my (and probably your) problem is, is this one: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9780. Some bug where CEF gets stuck in a loop. When I executed steam --reset an error about steamwebhelper and glibc appeared like 50 times, each taking a few seconds.
