I've been using the same cloud gpu service as well for about 2 months. It's able to run on Manjaro installed through snap. The service picks up input pretty well, including audio from your mic, but like the author said it will depend on the speed of your internet connection. The audio/video resolution will adjust so sometimes it looks and sounds like a 480p youtube video. It has been very pleasant to use for a city-building game I enjoy playing. I'm more inclined to try other sim-like games since I don't have to worry about storage. It uses Steam and other game marketplace accounts to check if you own the games you want to play. It may not be good for multiplayer games like cs:go or dota; I've been disconnected from a match and since the game is running on cloud I'm still "connected" in-game appearing as afk.Overall, I've been pleased with the service and plan to use it on a laptop for an upcoming vacation. Of course, nothing beats having a bare-metal GPU. I don't play as much as I used to anymore, so it's definitely a viable service for people who are sunsetting their interest in video games and do not want to pay for a gaming rig.
