Before proton we used wine. And wine will continue development with or without steam.

If anything the open source community did more and gave steam a firm platform to build on.

Edit: And to add an observation steams push for Linux is a reaction to Microsoft becoming a contender in the PC games market place. Its not for our benefit anymore than for valves.

libertarians where originally a leftist movement, but like dubstep, America ruined it /s

wont happen, only way to get what we want is through a classless society. we lived through millionaires and things were okay but with their millions they could secure billions: money is power and while what you say is a better outcome for our current time its not a sustainable one for the future.

Great let’s open the flood gates to more shit games on PC, we’ve not had enough in 2023

Good bot

Not tried, I use VPN, adblocker and run insta through webapp but still see sponcered and suggested posts, anyway using tor would be good for some but for me not so much

Thank you, have been using insta webapp but even with adblock I get shown suggested and sponsored so you may have fixed my main gripe, thanks

Cheers

I used barinista and they got pretty hefty threats from insta, I will however look at pixelfed thanks

Game publishers won’t want direct ai in games, losses them too much control, also they can’t use the excuse of its always online so NPCs have ai powered language. With how things look as everything is becoming subscription I doubt well be getting powerful ai on a single board to put into pci-e my prediction is more Aline to we won’t have gaming PCs, GPUs will be price hiked and anyone wanting to game will be on a subscription service

How to make gaming hurt, what’s with the hard corners?

The theming is stunning

Yea mullvad released a tor browser and search engine

deleted by creator

Christ they’re at it again

Never used it but come across them. Seem holesome.

I’ve been using mullvads leta search engine and thats been fine for me

Works amazingly but anyone know how to support without google play

Download whatever distro seems interesting, if tails is something you want to try then try it I actually had a similar introduction to Linux but I doubt youd stick with tails as its not a daily not to say tails doesn’t have its place. I personal like arch distros and if your moving from windows you’d probably like KDE plasma. Using Linux won’t instantly net you privacy, this is something that you’d need to pro actively aim to be private, like what is the URL for the pirate bay, 1337x, can I trust this torrent? Which browser do you use and search engine, what torrent client can be trusted.

I’d recommend using transmission, qbittorrent or anything Foss with half decent user base. VPN you’ve got proton free, mullvad costs but I’d say its worth it or you can tunnel through tor network. Distros you’ve got lots of options, recommend you look at distrowatch or youtubers like distrotube. Find a small pall of trust worthy torrent sites and names of trust worthy repackere, fitgirl, dodi, jc141 to name a few.

But most importantly. Make sure to seed 🙃

If you’d not mentioned BG3 then more people would agree, but any game that is buggy should be refundable for sure and to say other wise is anti consumer

If that suits your needs, then sure, but personally, I’d choose a tablet PC for its versatility, broader app selection, and to avoid the challenges posed by Google’s APIs within what I see as a problematic ecosystem. I appreciate my degoogled phone, but it’s still quite common to encounter apps that heavily rely on Google’s services
