  • Only thing I miss is proper support for some services I use. Minikube is afaik still a pain with podman, at least rootless. Gitlab runner still doesn’t support podman completely imho. But a plus to docker is that they still build packages for EL 7 while the podman version in EL 7 is pretty damn old. Besides from that I went podman all the way.












  • I dont’t see plasma-workspace as a dependecy. Output from paru:

    This is still alot for one tool, but as far as I can see it will not install the whole plasma desktop again. I am running GNOME, so not sure if GNOME already brings some dependencies not mentioned in my output.



  • Surprised that nobody yelled Proton yet? Lots of Windows games running pretty good, some close to native, some even better on Linux through Proton. But here is the thing you mentioned which could be a problem: anti cheat. It works on Linux but depends on the developer to enable it. Some major games simply does not support it. You can check them here: https://areweanticheatyet.com/ , for general compability check https://protondb.com , even non Steam games can run through Lutris with little to no hassle. Proxmox with GPU passthrough seems like a big clunky overhead in terms of gaming but maybe you got that game that will never run on Linux.
