New server who dis? Hello again. GamingOnLinux just did a full server migration and so if you’re seeing this, welcome back home, please wipe your feet at the door.
We’ve successfully moved over to AlmaLinux from a nearing EOL CentOS, to ensure that GamingOnLinux can continue operating long into the future on a modern server software platform. That and the server is all clean, shiny and ever-so-slightly better than the previous one. I also took this time to add in some increased security options and an extra backup system too.
I would like to use this moment to give a huge thank you to all our supporters for keeping the lights on! You’re wonderful, beautiful people — the best people. And of course thank you to everyone who joins in commenting on articles and entering the depths of the Forum.
Want to help support GamingOnLinux? See below!
Firstly, the best way is regular support via Patreon. For Patreon, a suggestion is to pledge around the start of a month, as it charges at the beginning of every month. Generally the Patreon is just to have regular funding to keep bringing you the news (and some videos on YouTube - you can also be a YouTube Member!).
All other donations, without any special rewards can be done by:
- Paypal Donations or Monthly donation/sub suggested levels: Supporter - Supporter Plus
You can also bookmark and buy games using our affiliate/partner links (and they really do help!):
You can find all the links to support us on our dedicated page any time.
Thank you for continuing to read and support GamingOnLinux!
A quick extra reminder: you can click every single tag on an article, to show a full feed of articles with that tag. Each tag also has an RSS feed attached to it like these examples with Open Source or Distro News or Native Linux or Steam Deck. So you can easily use an RSS feed of what you want, or bookmark specific tags to visit.
Did you also notice the Thunderbird banner recently? We have 1 slot on Patreon to get a little extra funding from a single sponsor and Thunderbird graciously offered to join for a little while. Big thank you to Thunderbird for the support!
Please report general issues and suggestions via this forum.
Quoting: EikeThere's no change without some regression...
Despite having the option to keep me logged in enabled, I have to relogin every session on my phone. Unlike with the old system.
That sounds weird, I didn't even have to login again 🤔

I would suggest entirely clearing all cookies and session data, everything for GOL in your browser. Possible something got stuck somewhere. If it still keeps happening send all details to the forum as mentioned in the article.
Quoting: Liam DaweI'm okay on Android with Firefox, for what is worth (not much, I suspect). Maybe you can share some details and we can help fix.Quoting: EikeThere's no change without some regression...Odd, first report I've seen and across three browsers and my mobile I'm not seeing the issue.

That might be possible! By chance, I'm using the same. And I've got something to experiment: Could you try to access GoL via this link for some days?

I did that by chance, and get a not logged in message. When I try to log in from there, I' told I'm already logged in. This doesn't happen on desktop, though, so you could give it a try on mobile.

Nope, still all good here. Android 14 (Pixel 5) using Firefox mobile with uBlock Origin.
