The only thing that constantly trips me up is the code for posting images on the forum and in the comments! I'm used to it at this point, sure, but is there a reason that standard BBCode, as seen on most types of forum, can't be used for that?

Ah, that's because we started to move over to markdown, but never had the time to actually finish it <_<

Any chance you can add links to the individual charts on the Steam Tracker page? I can hand craft the links myself, but would be cool to have a easy right click and copy link. Like this Link to page elements.

Done, all the bold titles are now clickable and copyable anchor links.

It's nice to have a unified thread for the wishlist.

I already ask for it in others thread but the features I want are

• Color code for protonDB rating of games in bundle because I'm lazy ^^


• The return of the number of games brought and the vendor used for the GoL statistics. At least a question about which store you have used to get games for the last year would be interesting (I'm curious about the percentage of users buying physical copy of game at retail, what really is the GoG/Steam distribution and how widely used are the steam key reseller)


• This one is a new idea, maybe a box where we can submit store page of a game that work fine for Linux that we want to be featured in an article. I had fun with some games recently that were developed on a KDE system but did not get some article in GoL and I never really get myself to write an email to GoL.

And of course, thank you for running this fantastic website !

Spoiler, click me

I support the Patreon but never managed to get the badge on GoL

They don't really have anything official like Valve does, just a colour and that's it. I've been thinking on it, but not sure how to handle it. Won't be a CSS thing, because that could change any time in future and mess up how an article would look. So would need to be a picture, but what?

Not really possible with the current system, since it's based on the same questions over time. But adding temp questions somehow might be possible in future, but it's time consuming to work on for so little gain when we all know 99% will be Steam. It doesn't seem like a question that really makes sense to have to be honest.

Best way is just to email me. Online email boxes are too easy to spam and spoof without implementing various increasing security measures on it. Otherwise, there's the suggested-news channel in Discord for exactly that.

A span with a CSS rule can be a colour and then changed to be an image by changing the css rule and adding a background image to the empty box if I remember CSS correctly. So it can start as a plain box and then evolve in order to look more like a medal. The main problem would be the legacy issue if they decided to change their notation but article on bundle loose relevance very fast when the bundle is over so the issue would be very minor in the worst case.

I would like to see more info added to the PC info tracker. Could add init system, file system, BIOS (Coreboot, Libreboot, Dasharo, closed source, etc). Then again it's easy for me to push my love of data on others when I don't have to do the work.

About time I ask about this: where's the Like button in the article's pages? I couldn't find it at all, so wherever it is, my suggestion is to make it bigger or more prominent.

For articles it’s at the bottom, for comments same as the forum above the comment. If you don’t see them, a browser plugin is blocking them.

I swear I tried turning off my adblocker to make sure once. But I just did it now and yeah I can see it, my bad.

Yeah it's annoying really, there's zero reason for it to be blocked. It's all 100% integrated and local to GOL.
