Does it fix the crash of Source games when opening the in-game overlay? Did anyone test this?

I really don‘t get their point regarding the negative impact. A platform should never be production critical. No one should rely on it for solving production issues. That is what enterprise support is for. I think that this is just an excuse for not being bothered to participate

I think this shouldn't be that huge of a deal right now. We all have to start somewhere and I think that in the future there will be a way for us to migrate the community if we decide it is time to do so (maybe there is already, I am not really familiar with lemmy yet). I would support setting up an instance if we should decide to

I really like the shift in the community. Now developers are already thinking of migrating their app to a lemmy backend. Especially in the Apollo subreddit this gets suggested hundreds of times. I really hope that the big apps will eventually shift as well and this might be a big thing moving people to try out different platforms

Distro doesn't really matter nowadays. You can get all desktop environments to work on most distros. Especially the big players like KDE, Gnome, Xfce have hundred distros they are shipped with by default. Most big distros have versions for each of the most popular desktop environments. Therefore, I would suggest that you look for the distro which fits your needs best and then install the desktop environment you want to work with afterwards, if there isn't a flavor of your distro that ships with it already.

Phoronix is straight out amazing, they always cover the latest news about Linux. Whenever I want to get some information about some hardware working with Linux, how the driver state is, I always find information on there, I love it

I really hope they contribute back all their findings to the open source projects they used code from, but if they do it will be a huge win for the Linux community
