    As good as I expected. Capped at 45fps, TDP at 10 Watts. Most of my settings are set to Low, textures at Medium. I think I could set a few more settings at Medium and still get 45fps but I like my fan to be as quiet as possible, and anyway given the small screen, I'm not sure I'd really see a difference.

    I never had an issue running a steam game on SteamOS. Non-steam games and 3rd party launchers like EGS or Ubisoft are a bit hit or miss; e.g. I never managed to get Fall Guys to launch, and Destiny is incompatible because of their anticheat. Diablo II Resurrected and Diablo IV run flawlessly though. Emulation is fine.

    I never really felt the need to install windows, as it would probably bring more issues than solutions.

    Diablo IV, Assassin's Creed Origins, Caves of Qud, No Man's Sky. Also a bit of roguelites like Isaac, Dead Cells, Vampire Survivors, and Brotato.

    I'll probably try Zelda TOTK again soonish, because I wasn't able to get it to run correctly (or sometimes even at all. Reading the comments here, it looks like it improved.

    FWIW I briefly tried it on my Deck yesterday, and yes it runs well. Though I capped the framerate to 45 because the fan was running at full blast and the device was getting hot.

    There's a thread of replies arguing on the semantics of communism, willfully ignoring the fact that FaceDeer's issue is about LemmyGrad and not communism, and repeating "you've chosen to engage with me" while this is very obviously the other way around.

    I have the cheapest Hetzner VPS (it's less than 5€/mo iirc), and I run a few self-hosted services on it. I'll try to install Lemmy this week just to see, but I don't doubt it will work without any issue.

    I'm probably not going to open it to registrations tho, not really the kind of stuff I want to manage.

    What’s to stop someone from impersonating another user on a different instance?

    Mastodon can have (has?) the same problem. This is somewhat solved with the self-verification process though, so it could be done similarly on Lemmy.

    I guess one will eventually “prevail” and become the defacto instance for that community

    Fore niche-y communities, probably. For more generalized ones (like "gaming"), I can see several communities evolve in parallel, each with its own culture and preferred content.

    I'm playing on my Steam Deck like I was playing on my Switch 6 years ago. I prefer my indie games on handheld devices, so a good half of my playtime is spent on the Deck.

    Well when you host your own website with your own funds, you try to not pay for unneeded perfs. But then a few hundreds people join, register, create content, upload images and videos, and suddenly your small VPS can't handle the load. And you're hesitant to scale up because it costs money, sometimes it costs time too because you need to migrate stuff, and maybe in a few days (or a few hours?) that load will disappear and now you're on a more expensive tier for nothing.

    No idea how long it takes to make 1L of almond milk, but if it's literally blending and straining, that's not really comparable to cooking or baking where half the enjoyment is in the process.

    What is (or will be) your season level at the end of S03?

    I've been playing the game for a good 2 months, and I'm not going to reach the plague mask at lvl99. I'll just get the cool helmet at 67 this weekend and take a break until S04

    Don't forget that [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/) exists for Android users. I personally prefer it to the Play Store if the app is available on it, and some apps are _only_ available on F-Droid.
