Its a massive industry problem where code is so much more heavier where devs are reliant on brut hardware force rather than refining code to be light.

Not boomer sentiment at all

Could be big. Love wine but even games with native release for Linux have wine reliance

Heard this had even killed projects

Interesting read, love stuff like this but it seems they'd be a lot of dev overhead to truly make something large and agnostic but still gotta commend it!

I hope its as good as the stalker standalone mods, god bless modders!

A lot of free and open source products are in fact funded through grants or corpates

You'll have ask the question of how important is this data, then before you start run drive diagnostic tool to see if all are functioning as expected, I'd suggest moving directories aposed to chopping anything up as to maintain some form of redundancy if a drive were to fail. It'll be a long process. Hope it goes well

Resync is a handy tool

Use appimagelauncher Application that will add appimages to application menu

Usually projects on github. Personally I use Appimages for things like Mypaint a digital drawing application, krita and most other KDE applications as to avoid all the dependency's KDE has in its eco system or at least to put them somewhere easier to manage

Found an interesting post from steam steam support stating contingency plan for users ive also seen another post that was in a discussion outlining the same contingency plan

Only get to keep for 24 hours?

Yes this is what I meant, thank you.

Cities skylines is one example.

Microsoft created directx and its been an integral part of game dev since, not the only reason as I'm sure if Linux had a large market share we'd see devs jumping over

Can load arch onto Kendle Paper White 3

Hard disagree there. Look to capitalism

If software is influenced by human nature then its not a stretch to apply the same philosophy to political systems

Woosh

You should quit in "satire"

Calm down ok
