Trying to play games on Linux with a dedicated gpu in a laptop is way harder than it needs to be, I can't for the life of me get games to recognize I've got an AMD card instead of just using my integrated graphics.

Might just disable the cpu graphics in the bios if I'm gonna be playing games. Or do the unthinkable and reinstall windows to see if it works again xD

I'm not tech illiterate, it's just that what is working for everyone else never works for me xD
Even when it comes to my fedi instance, shit just breaks for no reason or is all set up in different folders than it should be lol.
