Quoting: fenglengshunMy "final bar" would be if Genshin could get some sort of Linux release, because then that's it, we've reached critical mass where the ball's rolling on their own.

Can't be trusted to work forever, but search for "an anime game launcher" on gitlab. Will respect their wish to not link it here or mention the game by name.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleDoes the Steam Deck have KDE Connect pre-installed at all? If not I think we should push for it.

.....

Quoting: The Article You Just ReadKDE Connect does not come pre-installed and doesn't have a proper Flatpak package for Linux / Steam Deck.

Thanks for the pointless sarcasm, mature human.

You asked a question clearly answered by the article. Now you're moaning about me not being mature? Get a grip dude.

Yes, people's favourite reason to visit a web site is so that the site owner can speak to them like he thinks they're assholes. You falsely assume people read every word you write. In this case why would someone who already knows how to use syncthing do that?

Quoting: denyasisI was always under the impression that most/many of the Chromebooks were lower powered ARM chipsets? I'm assuming this is for x86 systems only?

I also assumed that this is for >ARM< based systems...
So, no Steam for ARM yet?

That would change nothing. Wine (Proton) still doesn't work on ARM.

Codeweavers CrossOver runs on ARM based Macs and you can play games on it.

Ah yes, Discover Overlay, which you install using Discover, which you can also use to install Dolphin emulator, not to be confused with Dolphin file manager.

Quoting: henriquecariocaStadia is linux + Vulkan , Stadia helps Steam deck and vice versa ( and steam for linux )
that simple ,

Give a single example where Stadia have helped the Steam Deck. Stadia is not Linux + Vulkan, it's some in-house proprietary Google API + DXVK that just happens to run atop Debian.

Stadia does not currently use DXVK. I think you have it confused with the new "windows emulator" project they are working on.

How does it help Linux? None of the native ports on Stadia have ever been released for desktop Linux as far as I know.

In the case of all those Ubisoft titles. Most are not even on Steam.

Quoting: andy155Valve reduces the size of the Steam Deck client in the latest update? Honestly but who cares? You really exaggerate with the deck news.

Did you know you can block tags so you never have to see any Steam Deck news?

I have another theory. It's possible they are moving anything Steam Deck related into a different depot. There are 2 reasons one might want to do this as a developer. One is to have the anticheat stuff separate (1 file), but the other is to potentially add in a separate low res assets set to use up less space on the Deck. I'm still waiting for the first dev to make use of this feature.

EDIT: The name of the quick fix branch is interesting also. It reads: "temporary test for merge build for EA". The "for EA" part sticks out, almost as if they are only doing this because the publisher told them to.
