it doesnt seem to be that way, https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2022/01/easy-anti-cheat-not-as-simple-as-expected-for-proton-and-steam-deck/

Uh huh. I’d just steal from whatever rich person I knew. I’d donate some to some software projects, and the rest is all mine, baby

Yeah. I’d definitely steal a lot of money.

I only install UBO and never configure it, so perhaps UBOL will be fine

I installed this other one https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ad-accelerator/gpboiedfklodfhngobidfjecdpmccehg?hl=en because this one seems to the FOSS.

I do think its a waste to spend money on a search engine

I honestly believe that it’s good to pay for services if you find them good. FOSS does need the money but unless you want to wait for the long term, it’s not viable as a user.

Its fustrating as a FOSS nerd to see so many people shill yet another subscription based service …

I’m quite interested in FOSS stuff but I get disappointed by so much FOSS stuff I now just use whatever feels the best to me

i have tried these alternate search engines and I have to always come back to google. A friend I trust a lot swears that kagi is the best search engine, and so do other people I know, so it must have some merit.

I don’t, I moved to Chrome after a year of using Firefox full time.

they still do so

:shrug:

Many still use chrome

I don’t mind this at all, but it’s funny that I barely if ever get ads that would make me want to buy something. I don’t even use an adblocker on my android phone and i use chrome on me laptop

After using Firefox for nearly a year, I am using Google Chrome again and it feels much more snappier/fluid, and also uses less power compared to firefox (power draw is often near idle or outright idle), font rendering seems better on Chrome too. Only issue is that it doesn’t support hw video decoding (vaapi) on wayland, but I just use MPV for that. Firefox does support vaapi even on Wayland but it’s outrageously less efficient than mpv.

tfw i use google chrome on linux comfily

I’m not sure. I don’t really believe things will get better, as they only seem to get worse as time passes. I’m a 3rd worlder…

I use Linux full time since 2020, and have known it since 2013~, but I don’t ever recommend it to anyone. It’s full of papercuts.

I wonder how much price increases stem from a lack of creativity in finding more nicer ways to be profitable, and overall inefficiency of their operations

which should be a built-in feature.

why should it? It’s pretty clear that GNOME does it’s own thing than copy the rest of the OSs. They do copy some stuff though. And at least you can install extensions and the extensions that exist are pretty cool, even if I just run vanilla GNOME.
