Had to hit pause on it this week, but recently I have been working through Final Fantasy IX, the PC remaster on Steam w/ Moguri Mod. Started my playthrough in early September, and I just got the boat and entered the grindy minigame hell portion of the game.

Warzone 2100. 3D RTS from the late 90s that was open-sourced after the studio went belly-up. Fantastic game, runs on even ancient hardware.

Edit to add: Forgot to mention it is still receiving updates!

Genuinely I'd trust random FOSS stranger on the internet before I'd trust Google, Samsung, Apple, etc. It'd be a lot of work to be the sole maintainer of a LineageOS distro that only functions on one specific phone just to try to steal the data of the maybe 12 people who are going to install it.

I think, especially as you get towards "newer" vintage systems, the logical conclusion is the same one he reached - if you want a compact portable and you're okay spending a couple hundred dollars, you're probably going to be better off buying something from the time period than anything new that may be sold at that price point.
