KDE Plasma 6.3 is a VERY polished version! by “The Linux Experiment” is a video overview on YouTube of Plasma 6.3. There is also a new laptop product in the video, but you don’t have to watch that part (I am only interested in KDE).
I like the focus of improving the little usability things and bug fixing in general. Especially cloning the “panel” is useful if you want try new configurations or widgets without ruining your current setup. And hopefully their drawing tablets widget finally supports Wayland, as this one of the major points they have on the post. At least on Plasma 6.2 this is still not the case.
lol yeah I use the Turbo button on RetroArch often. In example on boot. Love the turbo button. :D Its still Windows, so you have to figure out the drivers stuff. I researched a lot and recommend the drivers I mentioned in first paragraph (in Edit). And I never setup internet connection. I really don’t want Windows 98 to connect to internet.
I have not much experience on Android. Would be interesting to see how it runs there.
Didn’t they lift the PSN account requirement on PC just a few days ago? Imagine if they could not play the game during the outage, if Sony didn’t lift the requirements. I kinda would have loved to see this, because it could mean a huge shift in gaming based on real world proof.

This is not what you said. This is not pedantic. ok you know what you are right and happy birthday. No need for toxicity here. If you don’t even know what you are saying and changing your argumentation over the discussion we had.
It does not matter. The point I was referring to you is that Linux is no longer the least used operating system and why its not limiting to that operating system when creating native Linux support. And no, its not about Native Linux Only games, its Native Linux games in addition to Windows games.
Your argument which I quoted is no longer an argument today.
I was referring to
If the least used operating system. Why limit your audience to such a small niche to begin with?
… which is no longer true. Also supporting Linux does not mean its limited to Linux only. This is in addition to Windows. And supporting Steam Deck comes with some extra goodies for the publisher, as they get some extra marketing in Steam itself and by videogame outlets, fans and YouTubers speaking about it. Do not make the mistake and look at numbers without taking context into account.
Your argumentation only explains why devs didn’t create Linux native applications in the past. I said its no longer the case. So don’t misunderstand me. What you said is true for the past, not today.
On Steam Linux user base surpassed MacOSX user base, so that’s no longer an argument: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/
On Steam https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/, all Linux operating systems combined have around ~2% users, compared to the MacOSX ~1.4%. This is only a recent trend, as for the longest run Mac had more Steam users than before. And building a native Mac game was more straight forward than on Linux.
Nowadays its completely different than before, thanks to Proton integrated into Steam. This means even though there is a higher percentage of Linux players on Steam, there is less reason to make native Linux games. That has some advantages: Windows binary through Proton has feature parity without the devs needing to understand the underlying Linux system and libraries, less work for the developers means higher probability of supporting Linux for longer time, thanks to Proton and the auto selection of Proton version for each game its also less worry for the end user. It does not matter what system libraries you have installed or what operating system you are using.
It would be nice to have, but in reality there is no real need for native Linux games from developers or for the end user / player.
It lets you have a local configuration that keep tracks of what videos you watched and allows for custom playlists. Without a Google account. I don’t know if a smartphone app is available, as I only use it on my PC.
FreeTube + integrated SponsorBlock
It blocks normal ads, plus Sponsored segments and some other segments if you wish to. Its configurable. This addon is also available for Firefox. I do not use Firefox to watch YouTube anymore.
Most people using a smartphone use the default YouTube app. And that app does not have any ability to block ads. Most people don’t know they can block ads or even if they did, they don’t know how.
Looks like XDG Desktop Portal is using dbus and expects it: https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/docs/common-conventions.html
XDG Desktop Portal uses D-Bus in a slightly uncommon way, due to the potentially long-running nature of some of its requests.
And for the one user in your link https://snoo.habedieeh.re/r/voidlinux/comments/1471jbk/why_do_i_need_to_start_sway_with_dbusrunsession/jnxpxz7/?context=3#jnxpxz7 stating instead using d-bus, would use seatd
, I assume it has compatibility with d-bus. He recommends to uninstall d-bus in that case. I have no idea what seatd can do and if this is applicable to other distributions than Void Linux. So unfortunately I don’t know more than you. It makes sense that some sort of messaging is required in sandboxed environments.
Funny enough I just looked in my Archlinux based system and look what we have, seatd is installed already. And dbus
is also installed.
Using another LLM model to fine tune it and then saying they spend a fraction of the money of those who created the model its based on, is just ironic. They used the Google model and fine tuned it. Its like someone building a car for millions of Dollars, I take the car and make some changes for much less money. Then I claim that I build a car for 50 Dollars. This is the level of logic we are dealing with.
In short, X11 is a bit unsecure in its concept (like every program can read keyboard inputs you are doing right now). The multi monitor configuration possibilities and mixing different setups is basically impossible (I mean stuff like mixing 4k@120 Hz with G-Sync and another one with 1080p@60 Hz with just V-Sync). X11 or XOrg has a long history since the 80s with many versions, the code base is spaghetti code and its not a pleasure for developers to work on.
Wayland is new, with a fresh and modern code base. It eliminates the security and monitor issues. Programs not written for Wayland does not work, but luckily there is XWayland, which allows running X11 games on Wayland. You can think of like Proton for X11, but without the benefits of Wayland, just a compatibility mode. In Wayland there are sub protocols, meaning standard definitions, that are developed and added after some time passes. I personally think protocols being like an addon that allows doing more stuff in a standardized way across all systems that support it. Developers in Wayland have a much better time working with its modern code base.
Have a look at https://wayland.freedesktop.org/docs/html/ch03.html .
Firefox Translations now supports more languages than ever! Pages in Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean can now be translated and Russian is now available as a target language for translating into.
Oh finally support for these Chinese, Japanese and Korean! Less reason to use Google translate. Edit: Just tested it on two websites, oh my goodness, it works well!
The distribution doesn’t matter, as long as you can install Steam on it.
