  • I liked playing osu! on Linux through Wine since it offered much lower audio and input latency than you could achieve on Windows. Minecraft has also always been a safe bet on Linux (unless you enabled shaders, then it just turned into a visual abomination for just about every shaderpack).

    Generally OpenGL games weren’t too bad, DirectX however… the biggest change here was DXVK rather than Proton.

    Never thought we’d get to where we are now.

    Me with a Vega 64… the forgotten platform. A few games will just straight up reset my gpu with certain instructions, taking the whole system with it. I can’t even play Minecraft with a Mesa version newer than 2 years anymore due to regressions.

    Good thing to know 7800 XT is also cursed though, I was planning on getting that one to escape my situation. lol.



  • I was trying to think why people would use it who have all their email in one web page already.

    I would prefer a web client (since emails are already interlinked with the web so a tab for it is less annoying to me) but none of the options satisfied me so I just landed there. You either use a provider with already good web mail (gmail, proton, …) or you end up with Thunderbird.

    But maybe I’ve missed an option. The best one I’ve had was Nextcloud Mail but it was really slow to load and search.



  • It’s not documented directly since it’s done with Steam’s built-in controller customisation. Under desktop mode in Steam Settings -> Controller -> Desktop Layout -> Edit Layout – there are two Action Sets with the start button bound to switch between them on long press. You’ll hear a sound when it happens as well and the game will detect it as an Xbox controller.

    This acts system wide as long as Steam is running but it won’t give you the per-application customisation you get by adding it to Steam.
