I read that being an Android user is a “red flag” nowadays. Did they specify which major versions are affected by that? And does the “red flag” taint LineageOS, /e/ and GrapheneOS as well?
Jesus… I hope I’ll never have to deal with them.

Other games are unbearable to try 100%, for example: Cities Skylines where you have to wait for a generated special natural disaster that may or may not appear after X hours in your current savegame.

Were you able to fix it?
If it’s that kind of flickering on KDE 6.X on Wayland that forced me to temporarily move back to Cinnamon on X to play Elden Ring again, it could be related to KDE enabling Explicit Sync by default and the NVidia drivers < 555 that don’t support it.
It was only flickering, the framerate was fine.
After I installed the 555 driver from the repository, the flickering in KDE on Wayland was gone.
There’s a manual for Ultramarine Linux on how to install the nvidia-driver
According to another comment, your notebook model likely has a integrated Nvidia GPU.
Hope this helps
It’s a interesting trip through Windows history everytime I need to change an admin setting:
You need to modify an admin setting (like…setting a MTU for example or changing an IP address (now possible in Settings, but wasn’t for a long time))
You click through Settings -> Setting not available, but a Link to Control Panel -> click on the Control Panel Link (XP-Era) -> Advanced Settings on the Top-Window (Windows 2000) -> Finally, right click on the Network Adapter and select Properties and you are all the way back to Windows 95/98.
Same with Powershell: A function or Cmdlet isn’t available? Let’s try this .Net thingy first, before we head to VBS
Need to manage Sound Devices? Better do that in Control Panel, since most of the useful settings are still missing
Need to remove a Outlook profile? Control Panel.
Windows is a prime example of inconsistent design, that’s why Device Manager still asks for drivers on a A:\ 3,5" floppy drive.
As an Administrator, I’m curious to see, what will become of Microsoft Management Console (MMC) and their Snap-Ins, which are still required to have by many still supported MS Products and third party tools. The last time I had to edit something in “Component Services” (Windows NT-Era Tool) was 2023.
