With modern iPhones? I haven’t found a way that works unfortunately. Apple wants to keep their users in the apple ecosystem, so this is always going to be an uphill battle trying to work with Linux.

For music I know rhythmbox use to have good apple connectivity, have not seen it work for any of my current devices sadly.

There is a program called blue bubbles that should bring some iMessage functionality over. I have not tried it personally.

Sadly the best thing in my experience is to keep a mac or pc that has iTunes available for most things. Your mileage may vary though and you end up having better results. Good luck!

I’ve used a wireless mouse, keyboard and xbox series controller with my Bazzite desktop. I usually use the proprietary Microsoft adapter with my controller and it just works. Occasionally I will have to disconnect and reconnect the adapter so it will pair, but that’s about it. Using bluetooth for the controller works too

This is what I did personally. Definitely the easiest route to go as no additional hardware is needed outside of an SD card.

For me personally I took it a step further for gens 1-3 and installed the Pokemon Legacy rom hacks to get a “definitive” experience. No complaints so far.

Should be possible using proton. I did this for Majora’s Mask before Ship2 was released

Outside of the few flashcarts I have, don’t really know the history behind the creation of them. Probably worth looking into the everdrive made by Krikzz as a starting point.

My Life in Gaming also did a few videos on the subject a while back. Here’s one of them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuHA3k-y6PE

For me personally, I think it’s a good way to play rom hacks on original hardware. Definitely a good way to also not put as much wear and tear on the cartridge slot either

History has the tendency to repeat itself. Considering Nintendo does a lot to cut manufacturing costs where possible, that would be cheaper to keep the new carts from working in the original. I bet you’re right on this

Also a good point. It would be surprising if the protocol wasn’t changed either for the slot itself.

Should be interesting to see how it blocks flashcarts.

That’s exactly what I’m thinking as well. When and if it gets confirmed that the cartridge slot is exactly the same (don’t see why it wouldn’t be) and can read Switch carts, that will probably be it.

More than likely though, Switch 2 carts will have a different type of encryption that things like the Mig switch probably won’t be able to read without an update

Can definitely vouch for Sceptre. Have a computer monitor from them and a TV as well. Absolutely love them both. My concern is actually tracking down Sceptre anything though. They’re constantly out of stock on their website

+1 for System76. Linux support by default and they ship to Switzerland

This is a must grab for me. I have all the Star Wars games available for switch (with the exception of the live service game that recently released). If this gets a physical cartridge I’ll be picking one up

Sure. In Windows there’s ways to change the settings for it. I’ll link some steps on that. I’ll also give the direct link if you want to use a blank keyboard:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/learning-center/how-to-remap-your-keyboard

That article above goes very in depth about how to get that done. Depending on what you need to work with; foreign languages, different key formats, etc. it should have the steps to switch them out and give you the best workflow. The short of it though, even if your physical keys show one thing, they will react like you expect with a keyboard you’re familiar with.

As for the physical framework keyboard: https://frame.work/marketplace/keyboards

That second link will shows the different keyboard options they have. As a side note, if you choose the DIY edition, you can pick from the different keyboards rather than be stuck with default English. Still doesn’t have Swedish, but may give you a better alternative this way.

Do note, the DIY edition does require some assembly. When I got mine I had to install the wireless card, memory and SSD. Everything else is basically pre-assembled. https://frame.work/products/laptop-diy-13-gen-intel?q=processor

Feel free to ask more questions if you need to. And you’re welcome
