I think so too. It makes sense to start with making it run on the hardware you have. Making it run nicely on other computers would require more time and money. Doing so can still make sense in the long run, but first you need to launch this new product, so better focus on short term goals.

I currently have two Wayland-running computers: one with Intel graphics and the other with Nvidia. While both work, one has some odd quirks. For instance, right-click window scaling doesn’t work at all and context menus vanish instantly unless I hold the mouse button down. Sometimes, the right-click menu simply doesn’t appear at all.

Incidentally, I’m currently looking for a used AMD graphics card. Can you guess which computer will get that card.

That would help with selling games, for sure. If that really is the main goal, SteamOS should receive some compatibility updates soon. We’ll see if that’s how they really operate.

Yes, but what’s the reason why SteamOS was designed to be that picky? My guess is, Valve wants everyone to buy their hardware. Making your OS run on anything isn’t really helping with that.

As long as their software is compatible with their hardware, Valve likely doesn’t see much value in improving SteamOS at this point. Dev time is expensive, so it’s understandable they prioritise other things. However, I still hope SteamOS receives the resources it needs to become a serious competitor to Windows in gaming PCs.

You have to start somewhere.
Don’t let humble beginnings discourage you. Strive for improvement, but always cherish the position where you currently are.

Price of perfection is infinite.
Don’t settle for low quality trash, but don’t get lost chasing perfection either.

Steam made Linux gaming more well known. People tried SteamOS, but switched to Bazzite. Since Bazzite is based on Fedora, it could have resulted in Fedora getting more attention. Is that what’s really happening here?

Problem solved. Never visit USA.

If you’ve already done a bit of programming, you can think of the terminal as a place that executes code. Just look at some bash scripts, and you’ll probably find it somewhat familiar.

Just like you can load new libraries, you can also install new commands on your system. You can think of each program as a function in some programming language such as Python.

What if there was a federated platform for supporting the channels you like? Maybe something like Patreon? Or how about some sort of merch store for people who can sell the things they make?

And then there’s also emotional maturity. If you don’t process your unpleasant emotions, you’ll end up reacting in unhealthy and unbalanced ways.

Turns out, asklemmy just banned that account for being a bot.
