Each their own. It's quite likely for common good as we're starting to have these alternatives.

That said, Steam is for sure superior in many way for Linux gaming 🙂

Apparently it can be found here: https://github.com/netrisdotme/netris

One can also self host Netris - so we are dealing with nice freedoms here compared to GeForce Now, etc.

ARM laptops are cheap / outstanding battery life - Linux is coming to them now in full 💻 :linux:

Acer Aspire One ARM laptop is soon rated close to 100% support via Linux 6.10.

Sure this device is not the latest - but there it is; a truly kicking ARM Snapdragon laptop for Linux!

Bonus: ARM's heritage is in smartphones - it means seamless operation between smartphone / laptop.

Sure it's possible - but overrall it looks like we're heading towards free'er environments now...

Take Valve's Steam Deck for instance; one can basically do anything with it..

Windows to Linux victories ✌️ 📈

"I just switched to Linux and i feel like i got a new PC.

Linux just fixed a lot of problems i had on Windows. For example my Steam dl speed on Windows sucks hard, 15MB/s max and stuttering.

I thought my SSD just dying cuz i always had that issue on both win10 and 11.

But after installing Nobara Linux i got surprised .. dl speed 60MB/s without stuttering.

Games also run much better which is weird".

Linux, 2 months ago to Nintendo

Nintendo keeps bully mode up | Free Software Foundation could have a case here? :fsf: :fsfe:

SuYu (Yuzu fork) on strangle hold. Nintendo kicks those who'd actually bring profit from their old games!

What about preserving gaming culture / history, Nintendo?

SuYu goes via GPLv3 license. FSF could eye on Nintendo - start tracking potential GPL violations?

Nintendo is clearly taking this as far as they CAN. This company is out of touch.

Many concerned do not agree with that assesment according to this video.

It tells a moving tale of Accessible Coconut being definitely accessible - but they seek improvement - the resources are scarce.

Best to try individually. There are not many projects like this 🙏
