  • weird, I wonder why it worked for me. i havent used it in a while, so maybe I'm misremembering something or something just changed

  • Is there something wrong with Heroics cloud saves? I havent tried using my saves on a windows system using Galaxy, but they've worked across devices running Heroic.

  • Developer Claims Photoshop Installers Now Work on Linux Using Wine

    Jump

  • Yeah, there isnt even a merge request upstream yet and it seems like no tests have been added, which I'm sure will be required before merge.

    They did release a binary of their fork, and you can always build it yourself as well.

  • Removed

    What's up with FUTO?

    Jump

  • Theyre currently completely reimplementing it, so maybe itll be better once thats done.

  • Heliboard is the best I've used. Florisboard is great if you like swipe typing.

  • Nah just officially support Heroic, its already great.

  • YSK you can add a noAI version of DuckDuckGo to Firefox

  • You can also set them to only show up when you click a button for them, which I always preferred.

  • Lemmy now (partially) federates with Bluesky via Bridgyfed

    Jump

  • Like the other US gov accounts that are on Bluesky, it sucks that they're their and get verified, but Bluesky is a US based company. If they refused to verify or outright banned those accounts, I think its really likely they'd face legal threats from the Trump regime, similar to CBS. I dont think those threats would be valid, but that lately our courts do not care.

    ICE is already the third most blocked account, with nearly 100k blocks and only 330 followers, the majority of which seem to be following so they can ratio them in the replies whenever they decide to post. I think this kinda supports my point that federating with Bluesky is definitely not going to be flooding us with pro ICE users.

    Thanks to moderation lists they were blocked by a massive amount of users they even knew they had made an account, essentially leaving them with just a void to post into.

  • GOG plan to look a bit closer at Linux through 2026

    Jump

  • They could, but Heroic already does pretty much everything an official client would do, I don't think it makes sense to create a new client.

    I don't think it really makes sense to create Proton forks for specific games outside very specific cases (like hacky fixes that break other games). Might as well just upstream whatever changes you make.

  • I'd honestly rather them not release their own Linux launcher. Heroic is fantastic, I'd much rather them contribute to that, either via development time or by sponsoring them. Some sort of official partnership with them would be cool.

  • Lemmy now (partially) federates with Bluesky via Bridgyfed

    Jump

  • I can't find any evidence of that at all, but even if it is true, that still wouldn't mean federating Bluesky has anything to do with a high demand to talk with ICE supporters.

  • Lemmy now (partially) federates with Bluesky via Bridgyfed

    Jump

  • What? Do you actually think Bluesky is full of ICE supporters? Most of my feed right now is full of support for protests against ICE, calls for it to be abolished, and hate towards democrat reps that are too cowardly to commit to abolishing it.

    I just searched ICE and clicked top, the first two posts are some ICE Nazis busting ass on actual ice, and the third is just a post that says abolish ICE. The rest are all pretty similar.

  • What do you think of tools for setting colorschemes in many apps at once, like pywal and base16?

    Jump

  • I think matugen is great if you want something similar to android, where your can have your entire system them follow your wallpaper.

    I'm personally not a fan of doing that, I'd rather just use existing themes like Catppuccin, they tend to look good more consistently. It already supports basically everything I use.

  • | Is Quickshell the most popular shell framework & ecosystem (Noctalia, DMS, etc)? Any others like that?

    Jump

  • Quickshell is definitely the most popular. I think QTs flexibility is a big part of what made it so popular.

    Probably the biggest similar project that used AGS was end-4s Hyprland dots, which eventually switched to Quickshell too. The dev shared some of the reasoning behind it here.

    There's also Fabric, there's a Hyprland shell called Ax-Shell using it that seems pretty popular, but I don't know much about it.

  • "read the changes before installing a major update"

    Obviously I dont think people need to read every change log for every piece of software. I do think its a good idea to read the release notes for a major update of your DE thought, since its the piece of software that is going to effect you the most.

    And once it is no longer on and has become a setting, they can just remove the setting and force people to drop gsettings and then remove it completely.

    What reason do they possibly have to do this? The setting already exists and is feature complete. It doesnt require maintenance. They also noted in the merge request that many RHEL users use it, so RedHat has a financial incentive not to remove it.

    They could also instead ask people on first launch. Some people enable telemetry, so they will find out how many people prefer to keep it, which I bet will be most.

    They could also just make it a setting. I really dont think it makes a big difference. They can also still use telemetry to see how many users enable it. Based on this thread, I really doubt it will be most.

    The first time startup wizard should be kept relatively short and minimal. This just seems like a very unnecessary thing to include.

  • Steam Machine price leak suggests it will cost as much as an iPhone

    Jump

  • I was disagreeing with the statement "valve doesnt sell hardware at a loss", which applies to more than just the Steam Machine.

    I was unaware that they had said this, thanks for sharing it.

    I wasnt trying to imply the idea was to somehow take over PC gaming. My point was just that creating new PC users by offering a console like experience will increase Steam sales.
