Works well in my testing. The biggest barrier is their stupid launcher, which may occasionally break on Linux.

There’s an unofficial version of Bedrock for Linux that runs “natively” using the Android x86 version of the game. Unfortunately it currently does not support Mounts of Mayhem. https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.mrarm.mcpelauncher

Wine didn’t work for Bedrock in the past because of how it was packaged on Windows. However, they recently switched the package type to something that Wine might support? Haven’t tested or personally or see anyone else do it.

Yup, been that way for a while unfortunately. Especially annoying for Linux and MacOS users who can’t just launch Bedrock on their computers. Trying to complete challenges on a touchscreen is super annoying.

Yeah, it’s really annoying. For a game that many children play, I’m surprised they don’t give super clear-cut instructions on how to actually get things.

It’s so terrible…

I like the fact it includes the year information, but it does not solve the problem of Bedrock and Java being misaligned.

I don’t see why they didn’t just do year.dropNumber.patch version. So, the third drop of 2026 would be called 26.3.x for Bedrock and Java. But that last number will differ for Java and Bedrock to represent fixes made.

I disagree with that. The main problem is that Nouveau was stagnant for years because it just wasn’t feasible to use since NVIDIA blocked reclocking support, so it would only ever run at its base clock, resulting in terrible performance. So nobody wanted to use the drivers, all that mattered is that they worked well enough to let users install the proprietary drivers.

But now that NVIDIA allows reclocking again, there’s actual reason to improve the performance and fix bugs in it.

With archinstall, I largely agree. However, you still need to make a lot of choices. Which kernel branch? Which filesystem? Enable swap? Which desktop environment? And other choices that I forget, it’s been a few uses since I used Arch.

Gamers Nexus is very clear they want to avoid making decisions. They want to stick as close as possible to as possible, but that’s tricker since Arch doesn’t have defaults for those, unlike Bazzite. Bazzite uses the Fedora kernel (which follows the latest stable); btrfs; zswap; desktop environment they do provide a choice between KDE and Gnome, in which case is easier to choose KDE since it’s what Valve is pushing.

Ubuntu is in the same boat, 90% of its users are using the LTS version.

Arch isn’t that good of a choice either simply because it’s a DIY distro. It’s not meant to be complete out of the box and may require tweaks and making choices that Gamers Nexus is explicitly trying to avoid.

Yes. They were very concerned about head to head comparisons because the tools for measuring FPS and stuff works differently.

Thanks for your work! I have a question though. I just installed it and signed in and it authenticated via a browser link. That works for SSHing from a desktop, but the page mentions it being good “In environments where the graphical UI cannot be used”. Is it planned to allow for entering a password and 2FA code when where there truly is no GUI available?

Not a filter issue.

I’m using the browser web page version, not extension. And it’s not a case of waiting, it would be days or weeks after creating it that I would notice it’s gone.

I believe those warnings are old, I believe Proton recently begun maintaining those themselves. I read some sort of testimonial from Proton about how great the Snap Store is and blah blah blah, though I can’t find the blog post for it.

The apps are from Proton AG on the Snap Store, which is a verified account. And the Proton Mail snap doesn’t have that warning, while for some reason the other two still do.

Edit: found it https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/snapping-privacy-into-place-proton-s-gpl-powered-journey-with-ubuntu/67251

You don’t really need to check the checksum.

Also, if you’re on Ubuntu, you can officially get the Proton apps from the Snap Store, no terminal necessary. And there’s also unofficial repackages on Flathub.

I question their motives with Bedrock more than Java. Though there is some stuff like the chat censorship in Java that is questionable.

Unfortunate. Though I did find out that Minecraft can use Wayland natively, if you block its access to the X11 socket or don’t have Xwayland installed.

You could run the game under Wayland before, but it was not default behavior nor provided as an option.

I used to force the game to use the Wayland version 3 years ago to work around a bug in GLFW that caused inputs to be ignored under X11.

But then Minecraft updated to use a fixed version of GLFW so I stopped needing to do so.
