Your personal bias against Flatpak is irrelevant to the lie that no stable development target exists.

It exists. That’s a fact, whether you like it or not doesn’t matter.

Linux doesn’t have a stable target to develop against

That’s an often repeated lie. https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/available-runtimes.html

I don’t even know where to begin troubleshooting it.

Not really your task, though. You are a paying customer and the developer needs to accommodate you, not the other way around. Easiest way should be that the developer provides a Flatpak version.

In a larger sense, I think supporting them would be supporting gaming on Linux as a whole.

Bottles and similar projects don’t develop the underlying technology, though. That’s Wine. Bottles is a front-end with a bunch of support scripts.

Why not just use the Linux version directly?

I don’t know how much of the 3 million installs I represent but I installed it, found the whole process to create a bottle an unnecessary hurdle and didn’t see any functional benefits over the five or so alternatives that also aim to make Windows software compatible with Linux. The Gnome headerbar UI also is alien on both game and desktop modes of SteamOS.

So I uninstalled it.

Deepin packages have been thrown out for a second time from openSUSE a few months ago. That stuff is all bling, no foundation.

GPL isn’t non-commercial. Non-commercial licenses are explicitly against the free software and open sources definitions by both FSF and OSI.

I was using Flathub’s Steam years ago already to avoid installing any 32bit system packages. Works fine. This change is no problem at all.

Why is Flatpak the latest shit?

Works on Steam Deck out of the box.

What’s wrong with the classic *.deb viz. *.rpm distribution?

Doesn’t work on Steam Deck.

What?

RADV was an external effort.

Not only external but a fork of Intel’s Vulkan driver. That’s why Intel’s copyright is mentioned in many file headers.

Voice controls and tactile buttons are not mutually exclusive

I think the post in itself is informational, many of the comments are not.

Post stays, comments get locked.

I will. I promise. I’m also not a teacher.

I’m locking this because too many people are shouting at each other here because of moderation practices.

This is not a complaints forum. See pinned post.

You’re single-handedly saving this entire thread. I was about to delete it for being off topic.

I’ve got a couple of reports that this is not about the Fediverse. It took me a while to be able to look at the reports and since some almost entirely Lemmy-focused discussions have taken place, so I’m leaving this post up because of the discussions.

This is not a precedent to post random off topic stuff, though.

Musk makes a Nazi salute and Chevrolet starts naming their cars after the SS…

There are other vision conditions where people cannot see letters in dark mode that well. Apps and websites should just follow whatever the OS setting is, no matter the motivation of the user. Even if it’s just a matter of taste and not some form of eye sight condition, it’s just as valid.
