And how many bottles are still in your closet? Because that’s always the first thing you should check after thinking that particular thought.

Librewolf. It does everything i need, and nothing i don’t. It doesn’t have bloatware or adware, and it respects my privacy. That’s all I care about, besides that it can still do everything I need a browser to do.

Magpies, crows and ravens. Idk why, but to me they’re adorable

I don’t really keep up with social movements, so my take might be outdated. Anyway, I always preferred to be called queen cause it was the first word I heard used to describe people like me, and it just felt more natural that trying to memorize all those complicated sub-labels people like to use.

I’m guessing it just depends on the person / area

Lol, i can’t think of PoE as anything but Power over Ethernet.

I have a galaxy z fold 3. It worked great for the first couple years, then problems started cropping up. Right around when the warranty ended, the inner screen became nonfunctional and the screen on the front started fracturing. The outer screen is too narrow for a lot of apps, and the inner one is too large for most apps to adapt. I highly recommend staying away from these types of devices. Also, Samsung is proving to be an incredibly frustrating company. For my next phone Ill be getting one of those repairable open source phones and putting Gnome on it.

Huh, that’s very insightful! I’ll be using that on my own junk drawer

35GB, $46.78, Canada - Saskatchewan I get unlimited textand calls, 5G networking, Caller display, and voicemail.

Same. I genuenly can’t thing of a single issue I’ve ever had with it.

The only times I do so are when they only run in-house adds. RoyalRoad is an example, they run advertisements for creators that use their platform, and its useful to find content you might enjoy.

Other than that though? Nothing. I have so many layers of add filtering that basically nothing gets through.

For real!

I have autism, and I swear, dealing with other neurodivergant people is a true pain in the rear. It really puts it into perspective just how frustrating I probably am when my condition makes me into the world most dense and forgetful person in the room. I know I hate it when other people act the way I sometimes do subconsciously.

I’m using Btrfs. I’m not that experienced with Linux, does that kind of thing usually cause issues?

I’m running ublue-os/bluefin-dx:latest It’s an offshoot of Silverblue

I haven’t tried any of the other versions in a while, mostly because it takes forever to install, but I can do that. I’ll point out that this issue has been going on for years, and I had issues with all variants of steam I’ve tried before.

I’ll download steam a few other times from various package managers to see if any of them work now that some time has passed. In particular, I’ll try rpm-ostree layering, docker, and nix.

(edit) I’ve tried installing steam a few different ways. First, I tried installing with nix. nix profile install nixpkgs#steam resulted in an error about non-free software that couldn’t be bypassed, so I tried devbox global add steam@latest which did work, but only in so much as it installed. It failed to launch steam, never mind any games.

Then I tried docker, since it’s what I used prior to flatpak. I first ran podman pull ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-arch-gnome then ujust distrobox bazzite-arch ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-arch-gnome This functioned well, but had the same exact problems as the flatpak version.

I was unable to install the rpm-ostree version. Apparently, Bluefin doesn’t include it in the default repositories.

I did test to see if ‘brew’ had steam in its packages, but unfortunately it didn’t.

I added some system details to my original comment, if your still interested. I also included the logs from when I tried to run Titanfall 2

Sorry, Flatpak

I edited my original comment to contain some other system information and the logs.

Sorry, forgot about that. I’m using the latest steam beta, at the time of writing.

I’m using Proton Experimental. While I have checked ProtonDB, I wasn’t able to find a solution. I did find that quite a large number of people suggested I put the following in the launch options: for var in $(printenv | cut -d= -f1); do export $var=$(echo ${!var} | rev | cut -c1-1000 | rev); done ; OPENSSL_ia32cap=~0x20000000 %command% -window -noborder

But it didn’t change anything.

There are a bunch of games on steam labeled as “playable”, but that silently fail when I attempt to launch them. Always the same issue, and it isn’t specific to a single game. Binding of Isiac was one of these until recently, where it mysteriously fixed itself while I wasn’t paying attention. Titanfall 2 is another, which I’m still struggling with.

If anyones interested, I’ll copy paste the steam logs. I’m typing this from my phone, so I can’t do that from here.
