You appear to have gotten one of my cats two remaining brain cells…

So does IONOS but I don't know how good they are.

Wither's big naturals is the only bg3 mod I need.

You don't need to read it and if you did why would it require explaining?

As @phr@discuss.tchncs.de mentioned friends are generally there for you if you're going through a crisis. If you can reach out to one or two of your closest friends and just talk to them it can really help. It sounds like you've been letting this build up for a while now (even if it is probably not intentional). Just getting it off your chest can be big help too.

If you don't feel comfortable talking to anyone you already know irl I understand that too and maybe you can try a helpline or similar though I personally had limited success with those. If you just need something easy you can also feel free to DM me on Lemmy and we can schedule a call or something.

If you want some slightly more long term advice this is where I'll put it: If you think you have the capacities to go to college I can only recommend it, generally everyone is a lot more accepting (at least in the natural sciences) and if you get to move away from your current family that can also be a big positive shift in your life, especially if you end up with good roommates. Colleges also make it a lot easier to get into things like therapy which really helped me when I had problems.

I haven't proof read this yet but I figured just writing something out would be best. Feel free to ask me questions if you have any, especially if I was unclear.

I'm happy to take over as black blob, it just gets too warm in summer.

I turned that off for a reason.

The ones actually at universities seem to be a lot less online and a lot more competent.

 

I've recently been playing more games with controller support on Steam and have had some issues getting them to work.

I have a DualShock 4 Controller (for a PS4) and it works fine for some proton games with controller support (Rainworld and BG3 for example) work fine out of the box. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Balatro both work with the default settings but only on Wayland (Hyprland). The games that work only on Wayland display Xbox button glyphs, leading me to believe that they are using Steam Input. I have in the past been able to play games with no controller support using Steam Input to emulate keyboard inputs on x11.

I am now trying to play LEGO Lord of the Rings which has Xbox Controller support but not Playstation Controller support and as such would require Steam Input. I would be happy to get it working on either x11 (i3) or preferably Wayland (Hyprland) but so far the closest I have gotten is being able to select my controller as an input device in the settings (by a button press being detected), this did however not allow me to perform any menu inputs and I was not able to reproduce it after restarting the game.

Overall my experience with my controller has gotten slightly worse over the past years (x11 only, I have barely used it when on Wayland) and I was wondering if anyone in this community had experience with non Xbox/Steam controllers in Steam that they would be willing to share.

A few of side notes:

  • The controller works fine for Steam in big picture mode and it is an official Play Station controller from Sony.
  • My Steam is installed via flatpak on the device using x11 and the device using Wayland.
  • Both devices are setup with EndeavourOS (arch based).
  • I run most of my non native games on Proton Experimental.

If I missed some important details that could help resolve my issues or explain why the controller behaves so different on the two devices I'm happy to answer questions :)
