This is a review with Windows installed, not SteamOS

Vesktop is great. However, with the Discord IPO looming (https://www.ign.com/articles/discord-is-reportedly-exploring-an-ipo) it is definitely time to abandon ship.

The openSUSE matrix server had this happen last year, and the admins came up with a good solution of bots that seems to keep things very clean now. I'm sure they might be happy to help if you asked in their admins group

Maybe because... automatically recording calls is literally illegal in some places around the world? It should probably be user choice to opt in to that so it wouldn't be on by default. And then, if you have it on while travelling, you could forget and break the law when going through a jurisdiction that does not allow it. Better to explicitly allow for each call, like it does currently.

Is it difficult to add them to more trackers? I've often wondered about this, how to keep stuff alive...

Yeah good luck running this on Windows 10/11 and modern networking... definitely better to try Beyond All Reason

Yeah... I'm laughing at this guy saying the AUR is much better than installing from a random Github repo. Same level of trust haha.

Also, not everybody NEEDS to know how something works to use it. And, just getting someone onto Linux in the first place with a 90% working system seems better to me than them working hours and hours to build a minimal system in Arch ... because it would take even more hours to replicate their workflow on Windows or Mac. I think this is a great example of "perfect is the enemy of good" when trying to get people to adopt something.

However, I definitely believe that if you want perfection, you go to Arch or a derivative and you do it yourself, no automation. But that should be a choice... I do plan on one day switching from Tumbleweed to Arch, but I am not ready for the time commitment. Plus, NVIDIA finally fixed their shit, so I want to enjoy playing games for a while now that the weird issues and visual artifacts caused by the old non-explicit-sync drivers are gone!

Are all your extensions updated for GNOME 47? Or were you overriding the version check?

If you happened to see my previous reply, ignore it, I deleted it... I came back to this post after a long day at work and typed a bunch of shit that made no sense.

Reddit just banned a ton of LGBTQ+ and NSFW subs, I imagine a bunch of people will be heading this way!

 

Wanted to share something I found out about today when I was troubleshooting Jellyfin, hopefully it will help people out. Jellyfin wouldn't connect when I had LAN Connections enabled on ProtonVPN, so I contacted support. They let me know that having Kill Switch enabled with LAN connection is incompatible:

"...the Killswitch and Allow LAN connections features are mutually exclusive due to their functionality differences, you will be unable to utilize both of them at the same time.

Unfortunately, due to compatibility issues within these features and some users experiencing issues when utilizing both of them, our team decided to make them mutually exclusive, therefore, at this moment you will not be able to utilize the Killswitch feature and have access to your LAN, therefore, if you wish to have access to your LAN, we suggest you keep the Killswitch feature disabled."

Not sure I understand how the two settings are related, but good to know! Another note is that Split Tunneling had no effect on this, so clearly Kill Switch also effects apps that are excluded in split tunneling also.

 

No more XWayland bugginess! Just add --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland to the appimage launch command and it works great!
