You seem rational, so I’ll ask you;

​

“He didn’t provide evidence” - he has.

​

Any source on this? I’ve been unable to find anything. I’ve skimmed through their post and comment history and only come up with the equivalent of “nuh-uh!”. I’d like to consider their input valuable if they showed any interest in backing it up in any way other than just claiming their in depth knowledge, the idiocy of anyone who supports CU and then calling out others to prove their claims.

​

I don’t know anything about Linux, steam deck was my first exposure. I don’t know who’s right or wrong on this and I don’t have CU installed since my SSD upgrade. For the record, I’ve tested nothing and perceived no difference. But I have become pretty averse to accepting blatant hypocrisy and disingenuous discussion and I do have a fair grasp of hardware and performance testing. For example claiming that this video, that does not present 0.1% and 1% lows, can prove anything in regards to smoothness of gameplay, and therefore one of the main claims of CU, is both disingenuous as well as poor performance testing.

​

You say Deathblade deserves redemption. I’d say they’ve earned the response they’ve received, regardless of whether they as a person deserve it.

You say the sub is anti-intellectual and those who don’t understand the tweaks have little to contribute. I’d say those who are unable or unwilling to backup their claims fit the same mold. I do commend the youtuber’s effort even if I think the result is flawed. So far I’ve only seen two people put any actual effort into the debate, the creator of this video and Cryo himself. But I would would love to see some others do the same if they’re going to crusade so vehemently one way or the other.

​

I’m genuinely curious about the results.

You are correct, except this video doesn’t measure smoothness in any way.
