If you want to learn more in depth about how Proton works I suggest you to ask here on [GloriousEggroll's Discord](https://discord.gg/6y3BdzC.

For emulation, X360 and PS3 needs intense resources and their emulators may be in an early development state; look back to the previous generations, maybe with a cool megabezel shader on RA.

What Linux distro surprised you the most? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Void Linux, very clean and fast on old hardware.

Proton is Wine with prefixes, basically, you can use it without Steam on Lutris for example (Wine-GE suggested); also, emulation for old games isn't so demanding, try different cores for RetroArch.

What's your favorite controller? in c/games@lemmy.world

SC is more of a brother to grow up with than a controller

8bitdo Pro 2 is very versatile, I'm curious about the Ultimate. I love my SteamController for modern games.

It's much simpler and faster than it seems! Also consider that the setup of Lutris and Wine is to be done only once.

umu, if I'm not mistaken, should be adopted in the future by all major gaming software like Lutris

What about the umu-launcher supported by GE?

Yes, bluetooth. The controller is seen again by the OS and then by Steam but not by games already started.

Nice, but the platform we need more is Peertube

How to add RetroArch games on Steam? (slrpnk.net)
 

crosspostato da: https://slrpnk.net/post/8602499

My stuff:

  • ArchLinux KDE, amdgpu, vulkan, wayland
  • RetroArch installed from official repos
  • cores installed via RetroArch utility

I'm using this command but it results in a graphical glitch when launched from steam:

retroarch -L "path/to/core" "path/to/game"

Possible causes I found:

  • the command may not work if the game is a .cue file
  • loading a game from Steam via RetroArch 64bit can be a problem(?)
  • cores installed with the utility are in ".info" and not in the ".so" extension

spoilerI haven't tried Steam Rom Manager as it doesn't solve my doubt and in any case I'm not sure it can solve the problem even if set correctly.

Why don't people here love SimpleXChat more? (simplex.chat)
 

SimpleX Chat is an instant messenger that is decentralized and doesn't depend on any unique identifiers such as phone numbers or usernames. Users of SimpleX Chat can scan a QR code or click an invite link to participate in group conversations.

-privacyguides.org

It's clearly proving to be the most innovative technology when it comes to decentralized communication, in my opinion.

Music apps and sorting music (slrpnk.net)

It's just me or no music player can correctly sort albums by date? I do tag my music using Picard and I had luck just with VLC in that sense (which is ok but I don't love it for music) but all other apps sucks with this.

Steam Big-Picture wrong controls (Arch, KDE, Wayland, AMD) (slrpnk.net)
 

My setup works perfectly with my old but gold RX580, the only issue is big picture: it recognize my controllers (SteamController or 8bitDo) but the buttons don't work correctly (for example (B) doesn't back but open a menu). I've tried to reset the chord or guide layout but nothing change.
