I didn't realize it was literally a switch, I thought it had something to do with the architecture of the OS and anticheat programs weren't compatible.

That's not been my experience, even with a native version.

How will the anticheat work? Most games work decently well on proton, but the anticheat is what really breaks these games on linux.

Proton usually works better than native linux lol

I tend to agree. I simply don't like the short form content. I never did. When twitter launched, I didn't understand it, and I still don't. It doesn't facilitate conversation whatsoever. It's just shitposting and one-liners and toxicity. We really lost something special when we moved from forums to shorter and shorter content platforms.

"Better" means extracting as much data and value from users as possible to appease the Capitalist machine. What users want or need is irrelevant.

bsky is just another VC-funded corpo platform. The initial wave of Libs who moved over gave it some gas, but ultimately, it's just another toxic, bland platform like all the others.

I previously has a subscription last year (just one provider) and had sooo many incompletes. It was barely usable.

I recently set it all up properly and I haven't had a single issue, even finding old movies with no issue. I have a provider, an indexer, and a cheap block account on a different backbone to fill the gaps. It works like absolute butter.

Sonarr, radarr, prowlarr, SAB and all that ... do it right and it's amazing.

After struggling previously to get it set up, I have everything set up with Radarr, Sonarr, and SAB and I have yet to not find something. It's sooooo good. BUT, you need to set it up specifically.

I love this

Golden age for sure. It was the wild West but so fucking fun. Every web page was creative and unique. Every community felt special. Now we're all just funneled into these prefab "experiences" on these billionaire owned corpo platforms. It's so dystopian.

I had my first account in 2006 I believe. By even 2010 Reddit was becoming kind of shit.

Honestly, I don't want to blame reddit entirely. The entirety of the internet has gotten progressively worse and worse and worse over the past 20 years. At this point I'm ready to nuke the whole experiment.

Ubisoft's first North American union, located at their Halifax, Nova Scotia studio, was certified on December 18th, 2025. Now, not even a full 30 days later, Ubisoft Halifax is closing.

 

Great game with Linux version on steam

Having played Alwa's Legacy first, I did not expect this ending! Great game, although I like the sequel better ☺️
