What is the performance of PopOS like on a base PS4? Is it better than psxitarch?

It runs almost as well as Fedora LXDE, clear from the Cyberpunk gameplay. Haven't had the time to compare it with PSXITARCH. But, do let me know if you get the time to test it.

I tried and it works for me. Maybe just a DNS issue for you at this moment.

This is what i get today. Where's before it wouldn't load.

Got it working now by using a VPN and changing region to America.... Perhaps my ISP has blocked it in the UK? Pretty odd if they have

How does one install exfat support for external hard drives? On fedora 35. I've done every command going like exfatutils / exfatprogs and nothing mounts?

It says something about not being configured inside the kernel

It worked before on fedora 32 i believe

I'm waiting on that answer too
