Should do for all - after all, it’s just a matter of prefixes
naa, they do two different things. Sure you can go to the Lutris wine manager under runners and install Lutris versions of wine or select an already installed version of wine. That’s not the same as what ProtonPlus and ProtonUp-qt are doing. They are like Lutris wine manager on steroids, for Lutris and Steam and Bottles and whatever else. Always the possibility I completely overlooked a feature of Lutris.
No problem. I use Gnome as well for my desktop and yes that is KDE on your Steam Deck. If you’ve got a Steam Deck then protonup-qt is definitely a must have. Maybe it was more important when the Steam Deck first released, but it’s still handy to manage Proton versions for games that are already rock solid on older versions.
Does Lutris manage Proton for just Lutris or will Lutris manage proton for all your other launchers?
Nice. ProTip, checkout ProtonPlus or ProtonUp-qt. They manage different versions of Proton for you. They both do the same things in about the same ways. ProtonPlus will match better with Gnome based Desktop Environments and ProtonUp-qt will match the Kde like environments.
People reinstall?
Same as the Unix wars and Vim vs. Emacs.
I did get your point. You don’t want the Android situation. So I say again, buy hardware that is compatible with Linux then.
Buy hardware that is compatible with Linux then.
First iterations of a console always start out small. It’s the second iteration that has the consumer confidence and you get a boom in sales. If the Steam Machine drops this year. I expect it to sell 10 million consoles in the first year.
This is how it’s done man. Keep it up.
lol, I’m sure you could just casually walk away from them in a serpentine pattern and avoid any harm. Likely they are too busy clearing Cheeto dust from their neck beard anyways.
yeah, I’ve heard many times the Play Stations have use FreeBSD for a while now.
what exactly does MacOS Own exactly
Definitely not the server space. OSX Server flopped in the early 2000’s. But you know, OSX is definitely “unix”.
IoT is 80% Linux. Linux owns every space except Game Console and Desktop, at least that I can think of.
I believe you, but so far I can spot AI art from a mile away. When I do, I just hit the back button. It’s not interesting. It’s okay when it’s used as a joke for memes. Maybe it’s going to look different in the real world on an advertisement or something. But, really, if I can spot it in the real world, I’ll think the product is fake. I’m definitely the type of person who wont buy if I think that. I’m sure that’s not everybody but, if it is a good percentage is, I’d say companies are going to want to pay real artists. Interesting to see where it all goes.
It’s definitely not comparing Server performance because OSX Server flopped in the early 2000’s.
Wow, right over your head dude. It’s just the sentiment he is sharing.
Yeah that extra Microsoft tax is a killer. Plus, you’ll notice your systems seems new and snappy for the life of the hardware, unlike Windows. Where your system gets slower and slower every year. I used a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro with Ubuntu until a couple years ago. It was great until I just needed a ton more ram and tons of cores for my dev project. I basically out grew the system, it still works great, fast and snappy. Gave it to my cousin who uses it as a daily driver.
I’ve heard good thing about Tumbleweed. I’m sure that will keep your system feeling fast and new for life of the hardware.
OSX Server would like a word.
Well, Steam doesn’t install leading edge versions of Proton. For instance, if you install Battle.net through Steam. Sometimes Battle.net breaks. like here https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/ge-proton-9-23-released-with-a-battlenet-fix-for-linux-steam-deck/ , so you need the latest changes which wont be available to the Steam Deck, proton-experimental wont get the changes right away. If you just pop open protonup-qt, you can just download ge-proton-9-23. Of course once you have ge-proton-9-23 installed, then the Steam UI can switch between the various versions installed, or you can do it from protonup-qt while you have it open after downloading the latest leading edge proton that you need. I think it’s a good tool, especially for beginners.
