What distros would you recommend for use on a (non-gaming) Laptop?
  • EXiLExJD EXiLExJD Now 100%

    I would go with either Fedora or Debian. I've been using Fedora KDE on my Framework Laptop since F36 released and I've been quite happy with it. Currently on F38 KDE and had no issues with the upgrades.

  • Reddit is blocking logins on mobile for some users, asking them to use the official Reddit app

    Damn, Reddit must really not want me back. If I can't use Boost or at least the mobile version of Firefox with ublock installed there is no way I'm going back. Thankfully I'm quite happy on Lemmy and don't really miss Reddit.

  • what games are you playing this week?
  • EXiLExJD EXiLExJD Now 100%

    Recently finished HROT and Dishonored 2 (Emily/Low Chaos). This week I'm gonna continue Morrowind (Using OpenMW) and I'm reaching the end of Pizza Tower so I'll probably finish that.

    If by server you mean the instance "Lemmy.ca" then no, it's not required to be a mod.

    You don't need to be on the same instance as the Community to mod for it.

    Nice! GOG is basically the only other place I buy games besides Steam.

    Good point. The system requirements on the Steam page also say "64-bit processor and operating system" instead of specifying Windows, so there is a good chance there will be a Native version.

    We have a lot less users than r/games so it wouldn't be that crazy. So far I haven't even really had to do any moderating, everyone has been quite pleasant.

    I would want someone that could check the reports and take a quick look through new posts/comments at least once a day.

    Edit: The only necessity is checking the Reports at least once a day. Looking through new posts/comments is just nice to do if you have the time.

    I'd love to be proven wrong but I doubt it'll have native support, will probably work well with Proton though.

  • Diablo 4 review - PCGamer
  • EXiLExJD EXiLExJD Now 100%

    From what I've seen, relatively positive minus some server issues.

    For me, those server issues just show the problem with most live service games and I'd rather play Diablo 1/2 or Grim Dawn for my ARPG fix. At least those games will still be playable in the future, even when the dev/publisher stops supporting them.

  • EXiLExJD EXiLExJD Now 100%

    I started with Kubuntu, then hopped to EndeavourOS and then moved to Fedora KDE. I've been using Fedora KDE since F36 released and have been quite happy with it.

  • Skate 4 devs have 'removed almost every possible barrier' for new players
  • EXiLExJD EXiLExJD Now 100%

    I'm cautiously optimistic but if this game sucks at least we can still play the old ones on PC via emulation. Last time I tested it Skate 3 worked with RPCS3 and Skate 2 worked with Xenia Canary.

    I quit Smite a while ago because I don't like MOBA's but it's cool that Linux gamers can try it now without dual-booting.
