That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

Yeah that fixes some things, but there is a sudo command it tries to run that has some sort of pathing issue in the Flatpak version.

Sounds like a bug to be reported :(

Is it less up to date than other versions they have?

There is already a bug report. It's been open for two years.

Valve doesn't support SteamVR for Linux in Flatpak or Snap
