how the hell are they going to judge engagement, like that’s the number one thing most of their user base wants is the ability to feel special and popular
Just your normal everyday casual software dev. Nothing to see here.

man this states barely got electricity and internet up here and people be trying to get drone shows lmao.
It’ll be another 5-10 years before its mainstream here
To me the graphics are turn off for me, just judging by trailer you have very old style Graphics which are cool so like your town and your party is a rimworld style Graphics which I’m on board with and then you go out on the trail and suddenly you have full-on shadered water and an actual detailed scenery background, but your party is still in that old style graphics? I’m really hoping they ironed that out before launch because it looks absolutely horrible
I have attempted every solution I have found so far on remapping the channels for my headset including adding specific device profiles for it, none of worked so far. My current solution is patchwork that was supposed to split them by adding a device profile that knows how the device is to separate them(because it uses a dual channel layout, one stereo one mono iirc with one being chat and the other game), but it lacks the ability to handle/process those channels as a whole so I only can use one of the two channels at a time but since I at least have one channel that’s functional I have mostly given up on it. It’s just annoying cause that was the main reason for getting this headset, the ability to have a chat mixer to change voice call volume and game volume separately, it’s one of the few things that worked flawlessly on windows that I have been unable to get to work on the new system. I’m glad that you could find a solution that worked for you though, I have had no luck lol
that being said, if you know of a non-cli method of setting up pulseaudio custom profiles, I’m down to try that as well, maybe I just screwed my custom profiles up somewhere.
Yeah that’s my fault, I wasn’t clear with what type of support I was talking about, I should have put that line at the end of the paragraph that way it was clear I was talking about compatibility as the rest of that paragraph was and not software support.
But for the sake of responding to that comment, if we are talking about actual user support and not power user support, I think you’ll find it hard to do the exact same things you have listed there under any of the other distributions, especially if it’s using pulse audio or pipe wire as that’s actually one of the issues that I encountered switching off of windows, as my headset has a double Channel mixer on it that separates chat and game and nothing so far has been able to properly identify it as that and I had to actually go in and tell it that it had two channels and even then the current GUI programs available are not able to handle it, so if I change anything it resets it again
GTA 5 is one of the worst easily, as someone who really doesn’t give a shit about multiplayer, there really isn’t much for me to do in it lol
something similar happens with Debian 12 currently, it’s super obnoxious and has made me seriously reconcider using Firefox. It freezes all Firefox windows, you can close them but it no longer updates the icons as you hover, nor let’s you do anything in Firefox, and if left unchecked will eventually hard crash plasma
it may also look like the YouTube bell, not every app supports it though, usually it’s only apps that give you an ability to do something, but it’s not accessed by hold pressing it, you click the little arrow to the right of the notice and then it appears
an emote or shorthand message suffices fine for one off messages that don’t need to have an actual response I’ve found.
message: “I’m home now”
reply: 👍 or 👀 or even a “nice!”
I have ADHD myself, so I understand how it is to struggle to concentrate, but I also respond to a message as soon as I read it, I find it super disrespectful for someone to not at least acknowledge that they have read the comment, even if it is a simple “hey I read it but I can’t reply right now”
In my eye communication is a two-way street and it’s a form of respect between both parties and if one end of the party isn’t going to respect the conversation enough to at least acknowledge it, then you start questioning if it’s worth engaging in the conversation in the first place.
Personally I would rather be told hey sorry I didn’t get your message till now, rather then learn that they had read the post, didn’t say anything and then forgot to reply later. It’s a slap to the face.
addition: It’s just a minor pet peeve of mine, it is also the reason why I try to avoid any platform that has read receipt notices, because in my opinion it just information that the sender really shouldn’t know in the first place because it opens them up to knowing it was read they just didn’t bother responding
I never understood this, if you read the msg, why not just respond to the msg, this isn’t the first time I’ve heard this either, like “I read your text but forgot to reply”… ok so why not just reply to the text when you read it that way you can’t forget to later lmao
It saves us so much hassle for both parties in the long run
wow imagine that, the walled garden stalling something that breaches it’s walls. Who woulda thought this outcome would happen.
Actually since their permanent non-removable drives, I would say wherever you want to place them, if they’re meant primarily for storing user-based data you can do like what I used to do which was store them in within the home directory just as specific names. Like my old setup before I went proxmox was /backups was my backup drive, /home was my home drive that stored most of my users /home/steam held all my game server drive and /home/storage held my long term cold storage drive.
Honestly, privacy and freedom of choice alone is why I switched back.
I will give windows credit, it’s definitely better than any other platform out there when it comes to support and it is really nice just having things “just work”. I went relatively 8 years having almost zero issues with gaming with the exception of my graphics driver which was a fault of AMD not necessarily Microsoft. All I would have to do is install a program maybe restart the computer and then run the program the way I went. With my current system I can’t even guarantee if the software I want to use will work because the ecosystem is geared towards Microsoft so every product out there is Microsoft first Unix if we get around to it.
My only reason for switching was the lack of choice I was getting. While I never had to restart for updates because it automatically updated nightly when I turned it off so it was very non-invasive, the fact that I I wasn’t trusted enough with my computer to be able to turn those updates completely off if I wanted to, on top of the fact that every major update seemed to hard push the office suite, and every update seemed to respect my privacy less and less was already putting me on the edge of switching every time that I had it happened to me.
But the recent rumor wave that was going through that Windows 10 when it reached end of life wasn’t going to be the same way that every other OS that they’ve had has been where they will release security updates past closing and instead they’re going to open the business only support tier to your Standard customer and offer Windows 10 at a subscription price instead, on top of the fact that Windows 11 wasn’t going to support how I wanted to set my computer up without having to reinstall it anyway, I just took the plunge and went back to Linux. Overall it has been enjoyable, but I really do miss the ease of being able to just install something and have it work that comes with being in the dominant ecosystem. That being said, It is nice not having to worry about what a mega company thinks I should run the computers that I paid for, built, and set up myself.
I’m not sure but, I always recommended Mint for it’s ease of use, I tried fedora, didn’t like it, will likely never use it again. First impressions are a pain cause if you fail the first impression you lose before you begin. It could be an amazing system but, it was a bigger pain to setup and get going plus had less resources for me to get started while using more lesser known tools that wern’t easily transferrable from the previous systems I has tried.
Yeah I get that, but the primary one that I use it for has stated that he doesn’t want to have to learn a new platform and that if his Twitter ever died he’s not going to learn another platform. I would rather have updates on a shitty platform then no updates at all. Of course that’s also under the assumption that everybody left the platform as well because me alone leaving wouldn’t do anything
If you open up the host instance, you’ll only see one other commenter anyway so I think they are down voting due to it seeming like a demand, but since no one’s messaging why I’m just guessing
I really thought they got rid of that future, you know after the absolute dumpster fire it’s launch was, like it doesn’t look good when your launch stream is buggy and barely runs
I exclusively use it because content creators I follow are stubborn and won’t leave the platform. I regret every time I’m forced to open it because it’s mostly spam now, but they won’t go elsewhere
I hard disagree with that actually, there are a lot of people on the platform that Karma dive and intentionally try to do post that will up their interaction. But if you remove those systems then they’re not going to care about the platform anymore. Not that those people are adding good content to the platform in the first place but they will leave the platform to find other areas due to this change
