This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting.

Yet in spite of all this, certain games won’t let you turn it off or have hair/fur/foliage look like dogshit without it so sometimes I still use it.

    Sure, I’m aware of many alternatives, there just isn’t enough impetus to move.

    Linux Distros in particular just never work out well for me, whenever I try and it just falls to pieces after a while and doesn’t work consistently for my gaming. I have so little of the troubleshooting knowledge I have accumulated for windows across the years that I can’t effectively resolve issues I encounter.

    Best I can hope for Android wise is just keeping to the custom ROMs, but they all come with the annoyances.

        Haven’t seen this one before, interesting… my device is supported but not tested. Not ideal.

        I have an alternative device that is supported, so perhaps I’ll test that.

          It’s been about the best for me, meeting almost all of my niggly requirements, eg long press back button = force close, traffic speed indicators, and call recording. Meanwhile it doesn’t feel like it’s from some dodgy hacking group.

          My general impression is that it’s like GrapheneOS, but not for Pixel phones only, and not run by divas.

          It also includes Mull and Mulch browsers out of the box, one is a fortified Firefox fork (that allows desktop browser extensions) and the other is a stripped down substitute for the Android System Webview system browser that all apps use. Most ROMs don’t replace the system webview, so it’s nice not having to manually do that with Magisk or something.
