I can’t find anything online but I remember when I started using linux ( around 12 years ago ) I kept hearing stuff on IRC about how steam needed specific workaround in the X11 and how that was setting a bad precedent.

I hope it works with fractional scalling !

Valve should migrate steam to wayland eventually, the X code to run steam is not the cleanest thing ever.

Hi I recommend against using an Arch based distro like manjaro or cachyOS ( arch by nature demands active maintenance ) also depsite the brand name ubuntu is a very bad place to start ( due to them forcing snap packages ). Go for something like fedora kde or bazzite, most of the app you need can come from flathub.

For games you got Steam, Heroic ( for epic games ), lutris ( for everything else ). You will have to quit the habit of hunting .exe file online, most of your apps will come from your store ( discover in your case ).

Vms will not let you bypass anti-cheat stuff so keep that in mind. Check for game compatibility on protondb if needed. Don’t be afraid to ask question ( even dumbs one ).

If you can get something your local university is discarding due to W10 end. Got my first server this way ( core 2 E-something ) when W7 EOL was anonced and it ran nextcloud very well. If you can’t, go for an used pc. The only thing you should buy new are disks.

Even if the hardware is not performant enough to run it can be a 2nd node for promxox.

If you aren’t planning on running a media server go for a old desktop or laptop (with Ethernet port). Your bottleneck will be your network speed 9 time out of 10. Also use a firewall and a anti scrapper (ex: Anubis) to avoid wasting resources.

Hi, this look great ! But what’s the difference with https://github.com/sonnyp/Eloquent/ ?

Honestly this should be a wake call to the FOSS community that we are way too reliant on the US.

Every default we have is US centric and if FOSS is really meant for everyone we should move away from that.
