I'm surprised nobody said it yet. Welcome back!

Once you switch to Wayland you'll start having X11 blockers pretty fast :)

I don't use steam, I buy games on GOG. Just install it via Lutris and pick system wine in runner options. And do the regedit trick with the graphics driver: link

I don't use proton, I use system wine instead. There are also wine builds by Glorious Eggroll with applied proton patches if you need them.

It doesn't help much though, performance is exactly the same as Xwayland

I'm using it daily since Wine 9.5, it works without issues (I mostly play Elden Ring)

Iran is ruled by IRGC right now. If the community is discriminating to begin with, you have to fight. I'm yet to see how Nix community is discriminating. What I saw is that an active developer got actually banned just for arguing against an affirmative action.

You're a good person, and I like your point of view. I have my doubts, still, but thank you nevertheless. I hope that a potential "person with lived experience" is also fit to be a community manager and above all is devoted to Nix.

If the community itself is discriminating, there's no way out than to fight or wait for an opportunity. We don't see black empowerment in China or a pride parade in Iran.

What I saw in Nix community right now is someone proposed an affirmative action and Jon refused. I don't see discrimination here.

It is impossible to satisfy all minorities at once. The best outcome is to pick an adequate, sane person from the community with proper mindset and proper judgement, irrelevant if they're from a minority or not.

I think you are right here. By cherry-picking gender minorities we sow a dissent and we underline their "otherness" from everyone else.

I am from an ethnic minority myself, and somehow people perceive us as maniacs and killers, try to burn our houses and fire us from work. Often it's the same people who preach equality and diversity. Somehow in my case they don't care about "empowerment" or "representation" at all. And somehow, the only place I feel comfortable is 4chan, where no one gives a damn who you are, and everyone's racist and sexist. To everyone else. Equally.
