Woah, you separated it already? that's insane. Defo checking it out! Cheers!
I know they don't wanna rock the boat after the ridicule they had after last review updates but, their review comments and forums could really use a little more tender love and care. Especially in the toxicity department. I know that a big portion of responsibility is publisher but, there is a lot of easily identifiable toxicity that if they did more moderation on (or even read existing reports) would be resolved really fast and make both areas a lot better for the user to enter. Like I personally don't even allow comments on my reviews anymore because it very rarely allows for an actual constructive discussion, usually it devolves into toxicity from someone.
Honestly, this is a really innovative project. I wish it came in an extension because I feel that is likely your biggest bottleneck for getting people to try it. I don't think many are going to build a browser from source & then port all their stuff over strictly for the integration. Plus it looks like a primary advertisement for it is that integration, but it also disables a lot of the QoL features that FF has that some don't have any problem with. Like the fact that Sync is removed as a whole is a major dealbreaker for me, as I do like the feature and I am not concerned about the privacy aspects of having it on.
If an extension version ever releases for the lemmy integration though, I would for sure be looking at that!
The downside of using a lesser known cloud service, you take chances like this. I had never heard of ice drive previously.
I believe I tried that as well, but I'll try it again when I have the chance just in case.
You just answered my question. I was going to ask you earlier and then forgot to hit send. Because I thought plasma actually looked really slick, so I was going to recommend it. Especially with how customizable it is.
The biggest annoyance that was to get used to was the change in overall size of the menu bars, but once you've been using Linux for a week or two, it actually hurts your eyes going back onto Windows again.
Of course, your metrics may vary because every person's situation is different, but I went through my associates and my bachelor's CIS degree with very minor issues issues., Many colleges will state that it requires windows for the course, but then you're able to use something like LibreOffice just fine. Like technically, the only course that I ever had to actually use windows for was my Microsoft Office course and that's self-explanatory of why I needed Windows for that lol
I did try GameScope as well. It launched with it, however, I wasn't able to actually interact with it(nor was any of the text easily decipherable), but it was my first time trying to use GameScope as well, so I don't know if I just screwed something up with it, or if it wasn't compatible. Other games were able to run with the same setup using it, so I figured it just wasn't compatible.
If it is a system file issue, I'm not sure what it would be because I've already tried nuking out the wine and proton versions and reinstalling them and that had zero luck. And I have similar issues between lutris and steam in terms of it as well, and those should use completely separate paths
Thank you for your assistance regardless. And yes, I have noticed indie games ironically do tend to function a lot better than AAA titles, I do play quite a few indie games as well.
I prefer simulation style games but it defo isn't a hard lock to the genre... I fell into the money trap that is humble bundle choice and every month I end up getting another 7 or 8 games which is why they add up fast, and I accumulate faster than I can play lol. I've never been very good at sticking to one game and playing it for an extended period of time.
Also, if you do end up playing Star Citizen again, definitely use the custom wine runner their LUG forum has, it's one of the few that let's it through EAC, But where it says to have 32 gigs of native ram, and 8 gigs of swap, definitely bump that up to like 15 gigs minimum of swap because it's rough and was bottlenecking still at 32 native with 10 gb of SWAP. it's still laggy as heck, but at least it will be somewhat playable.
anyway thanks again lol happy gaming!
My assumption on it is that the files wern't synced to begin with. I looked the issue up on the site's discussion area and it looks like it had a major sync issue a few years back where it wasn't always syncing folders automatically and completly so files got left out.
