Hello friends!
I made the switch from Windows back to Linux over the weekend, and so far almost everything is going swimmingly. Distro of choice is LMDE, and Steam and Proton are running like a dream.
I am having one minor issue which I’ve resolved in an unsatisfactory manner. Online games keep disconnecting frequently on loading new areas. This is occurring most noticeably on Guild Wars 2, Last Epoch, and Path of Exile.
I’ve resolved the issue by switching my DNS from my ISP default to Google’s 8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8 service. No issues since the change.
So, this is not ideal since I’d like to break away from Google services for improved privacy. Are there any ethical DNS providers I can point to for reliable gaming, or are there any alternative solutions I should look into?
Have fun https://www.lifewire.com/free-and-public-dns-servers-2626062
I also play Last Epoch. Spriggan Form ftw!
I just started and I’m having fun with it so far! Playing a mage and just unlocked my first specialization. Went with the one that gives meteor.
I think I soft-locked my save while I was having disconnect issues. I can’t leave the area anymore at all. Contemplating starting over. I’m not too far in yet. GW2 and PoE are running fine now, but LE is crashing every time I try to exit the end of time zone without fail.
