  • Yeah and let’s not forget that depending on your job it’s doable.

    My employer is giving me an iphone so I can’t use anything else except if I had a second phone, which would be really annoying for me.

    • kDrive for cloud storage
    • Tidal for music
    • PeerTube/Odysee/Youtube (trying to get rid of the last one but it’s almost impossible) for videos
    • Proton pass for password management
    • Anytime player for podcasts

    Apple is bad, but still probably better than Google when it comes to privacy.

  • Well if it means thst every computer company is starting to make it difficult to change your OS, it’s worrying.

    It’s also good that nowadays you have companies like Tuxedo, Slimbook and others, but I prefer recycling old computers given the choice.

  • My god your install process sounded really difficult.

    This coming from someone running a Surface Go 1 and MacBook Pro 2012 which weren’t really linux friendly for the install process.

    In the future, I’ll probably only get used devices as I’m kind of anti consumerism, but I’ll be careful to always get something reslly Linux friendly.

    My last experience with anything from Dell was my first Linux install in the 00’s and it was really easy. I guess Dell has regressed in this regard.

    Anyway welcome to Linux!

  • Oh it looks cool! Great way to recycle something👍

  • Well thanks a lot. I guess the notification will be coming in the future🤞

  • Oh I’ve never heard of the Nix configuration tool. I might look into it when the need arises.

  • Thanks for these answers.

    About the « deck verified » part, I was only seeing it on the Deck, but now that I’ve checked it’s kind of hidden when you go to the store with Firefox. So that’s one problem solved.

  • Yeah for now I’ve been using a lot before buying games, but it didn’t give me any information about all of my questions.

    Still it’s a great ressource for any compatibility issue.

    I’d say it should even be implemented into Steam OS without ressorting to a plugin.

  • Interesting post.

    I’ve always been really interested about immutable distros, but I haven’t broken my Fedora Workstation 42 yet, so I won’t switch until I do.

    What would be a game changer for me is a distro that you could easily replicate (settings, apps and data) from one computer to another. From what I know Nix is the closest thing but it ain’t easy to approach..

  • Oh yeah that would be great. I hope it’s really coming🤞

  • Well that’s good news and you could maybe just reinstall everything if you don’t find another easier solution.

  • Yeah you can be proud of your city for such a thing.

    Je vis à Genève et j’adorerais qu’on suive votre chemin en la matière.

  • I’ve had something like this on a Playstation 3 controller a while ago.

    It was a problem with some foam which got thinner with age and a contact patch.

    I don’t know if the same thing could apply to a few years old Steam Deck, but the symptoms were exactly the same.

  • Well to be honest I only played with the Deck hooked to an external screen.

    I forgot to mention it😇

  • I’ve been abducted By Frostpunk (on the deck), but now I’m finally getting out of it and enjoying some Wolfenstein (on ps5).

  • As the Steam Deck isn’t new and is apparently struggling with some AAÀs, that’s why I got a used Steam Deck 2 months ago to run alongside my PS5.

    I really don’t regret the move as I can play every future AAA I could want on the Playstation and so many games (including older AAÀs) on the Steam Deck.

    For me it’s the perfect combo at under 1000.-(around 1000$).

  • I’m really looking forward to playing it again as it’s the only thing I had been missing on Playstation. Now that I have a Steam Deck, I’ll be getting it even if it means giving money to a bad company like Microsoft.

    It was nice to do some coop on it on my 360 before it started killing all my discs.

  • My girlfriend’s 2012 MacBook Pro is also running Fedora like a beast with its upgraded 16GB or Ram and its SSD.

    It’s great that old hardware gets a bew chance to shine!
