Wayland has a mouse capture bug in proton / wine. It particularly seems to be an issue in FPS games. That may contributing to slower adoption for Linux gamers.

Seriously Linus memes must have 20k of the remaining 35k users.

We already found out just how secure rights backed only supreme court precedent are against the current court. If that taught us anything it is that any right not explicitly spelled out as an amendment can be revoked at any time. Don't jinx it.

I do not think this is a place for consumer action. It is good the devs are running their awareness campaign for gamers. If a dev releases a game made in Unity in 2025 it is because they have made the decision that it is the best course of action for their business. Maybe they have a B2P or subscription model that makes the runtime cost more sustainable over throwing out N years for development effort.

At the end of the day Unity is a business to business product. The developers are the customer, not the players. If Unity's new pricing and business practices don't make sense to developers then developers will no longer use it and Unity will fail without player intervention.

I don't think your goal is to further hurt the devs. Boycotting games made with Unity is throwing the baby out with the bath water.

I just don't think KDE will be worth it on plasma until KDE 6 / Qt 6. Basic components like SDDM supporting Wayland still have to be solved before KDR provides a first class experience. Try messing around with environments like sway, Hyprland, and Gnome the stability difference is night and day compared to KDE.

They didn't say anything about implementation. Why couldn't you build tooling to keep it decentralized? Servers or even communities could choose to ban from their own communities based on a heuristic based on the moderation actions published by other communities. At the end of the day it is still individual communities making their own decisions.

I just wouldn't be so quick to shoot this down.

Can you try using a tool like Crystal disk to check your drive health. Once when I had similar symptoms my drive was just weeks from failing completely.

Zoom works just fine on voyager.

And here they were saying the private subreddits were causing usability issues...

The admins, not to be out done, have now just broken search links and user experience for the whole rest of the site. Not just for the private subreddits.

I can take my browsing somewhere else, but the biggest casualty of reddit's implosion for me will be the years of help posts in hardware and Linux focused subs.

The gist seems to be they want to abuse the UBI images or low cost cloud instances to rip out the RPM sources. Those statements would make me really nervous if I had a business using Rocky. Strange for an enterprise Linux focused server distribution. I think Alma's approach shows a lot more maturity and foresight as a project.

I couldn't live without one these days. I personally use Bitwarden. I have tried most of the other manager suggested in this thread. They each their own benefits. I would recommend one of the hosted services for most people (1password, Bitwarden, not LastPass). I came to prefer Bitwarden for their combination of features and openness. I have self hosted it in the past, but these days just use their hosted service.

There are a lot of side benefits to using one besides just remembering your usernames and passwords for you too.

  • It lets you use catch-all emails if you have your own email domain
    • allows you to give services their own address to track abuse
    • makes you more resistant to someone taking your leaked credentials from one site and using it for another
    • easier spam filtering
  • Most password managers support random password generation
  • Saving things that aren't logins
    • Family member's SSNs and DL numbers
    • Credit cards
    • Wifi passwords
    • Gate codes
  • Sharing always up to date passwords and other secrets with people (for hosted options)
  • 2FA is easier
