I hate to be that guy, but it doesn't seem like there's anything to this fork. At least a few links in the README don't work, and the domain for the "email" is actively for sale. The owner of the repository doesn't seem to have any real previous projects on their GitHub account.

I can understand that it's a new fork, but in my mind you'd want to at least make sure the Readme is... passable before you spread the word and make a Patreon for the project.

EDIT: The Patreon link has been removed since I made this comment. I'm still incredibly skeptical of the project though

I love Linux. I have it installed on 3 machines, have been using it for over 3 years, and would install it right away if I ever got a new computer.

A couple weeks ago, I was feeling pretty exhausted and just wanted to play a game thru Proton on my laptop. I got it running, but it was unplayable because it was using my integrated GPU instead of my discrete one. I spent the night switching compositors, cables, and drivers, but none of it fixed the issue.

The next day, feeling exhausted from fruitless debugging, I tried to launch another game via Proton that I knew had worked in the past, but it crashed on launch. I spent the whole day going thru the same steps I did the day before, but also consulting ProtonDB and trying software that would force usage of the dgpu.

The next day, I installed Windows 10 to an external hard drive and spent the day debloating it. Drivers got installed automatically, I downloaded both games on Steam, and they just worked. So I guess I now dual-boot Windows just for the games that don't work thru Proton. Loading game worlds and booting up take ~75% longer, but that's to be expected because it's running on a 4 year old HDD connected over a USB cable.

As mentioned earlier, I love Linux a lot, and if all games had native binaries or Proton worked 100% I'd format that god-forsaken hard drive. But when real life has got me down, I don't need Linux to get me down further. I don't like Windows, and I feel incredibly dirty whenever I press F7 on boot to get to Windows. But when my choices are "spend 8 hours on fruitless quest to get >2fps" and "press play button", I'm going to take the path of least resistance.

USB-C worldwide? That surprises me, I thought it'd just be the EU. I wonder what the catch will be 🤔

The brief explanation is that Nitter worked by creating "guest accounts", which were a leftover from when you used to be able to use the Twitter mobile app without an account. After creation, these accounts lasted for a month. The time since the ability to create these accounts was removed is nearing (has reached?) a month

What about ReVanced, NewPipe, or Grayjay?

The second link you gave is probably malware!

Vanced died after they got a cease and desist from YouTube. You might want to recommend https://revanced.app/ instead, which patches the YouTube APK directly on your phone instead of distributing an APK with modified bytecode (which is the given "reason" YouTube killed Vanced)

ReVanced also has patches to remove ads/crack features for other apps as well, which is an added bonus. They're also open-source

While I do agree that this is bad, I'm a little confused—what does this have to do with dead internet theory? Doesn't that relate to users being bots?

Oh wow, this is hands-down the best Minesweeper experience I've ever had, not just on mobile. Huge props to the devs

I don't keep a super close eye on Apple's recent products. I don't really care enough to be in the know about what they might do next, I just hear about what comes out as it comes out and move on with my life. I also wasn't aware that there was a 10 year plan because I was too young to care when it was announced. Sorry for the confusion :(

I think what was meant here is that it won't run apps designed for the Oculus Quest lineup (which is based on Android), not the actual Facebook application

I'm sure a lot of forks will pop up right around this time. I'll be less skeptical of them once I see actual commits made to the codebase instead of things like just changing the readme

Yes, their posts were about Arch Linux.

As a creator, it doesn't seem like I've lost any of my patrons. Someone new even joined last night

This stopped happening for me once I lowered the back gesture sensitivity all the way. It was a little tedious at first trying to grab the very edge of my screen, but I got used to it pretty quickly

The first game mentioned was Bille Bust Up. I liked the demo that was off of Steam (and it ran fine using the proton-call command), so I subscribed to the developer's Patreon (which gives a Steam key) and it wouldn't use my dgpu.

The second game was A Hat in Time.

Yep, Nvidia gpu. At the time I bought it I wasn't aware of their reputation for Linux support, and I bought my laptop from System76 (with Pop!_OS, because Nvidia drivers are more "just works" on it). I've had a fairly good experience with all of it, but the next computer I buy will definitely have an AMD GPU.

I think this is the first time I've been fully unable to get the dgpu working. Every other time it's just worked or worked with tweaking

There's been some promising advancements in the server space such as Multipaper and Folia to remove Minecraft's single-core limitation, hence allowing for much higher player caps. I was on a Multipaper server running smoothly with ~300 players a few months ago.

Assuming the claim plugin used on the server is GriefPrevention (the most common one), land claims by default get removed after a certain amount of time unless you have enough claim blocks (usually gained passively via active play on the server, and you need a lot of playtime going off the default config)

I think the amount of numbers/capitalization of words is off in this username. IIRC it's 3 or 4 numbers, not 5

I have an external monitor that runs at 144Hz, but a while ago I realized because it was connected over HDMI, it was limited to 60Hz (for some weird reason). So I bought a DisplayPort cable, and after plugging it in the screen was flickering/artifacting in some weird way that I haven't seen it do on X11 or Windows with the same cable. So as a result I've had to reluctantly switched back to i3 for daily use

My views on Apple are based on what I've heard about them from the perspective of the right to repair movement and people like Louis Rossmann. Because I've heard about them doing questionable things in the past, my expectation is that they would have similar ulterior motives in the present. I thought that my comment would be voicing a common opinion, and at the time it had not been expressed yet. I apologize for not doing my research before leaving a comment /srs
