    Use something like Heroic Launcher which lets you easily download/install GOG games via Proton.

    Awesome. I've been using FUTO keyboard for two years now and it's the best free & private keyboard I found, but swiping has been really bad for all these keyboards which was such a…

    Mofunzone... Now that's a deep cut. I used to spend a lot of time playing the RPGs over there.

    Glad this project is still going, but have they ever fixed its stability and being able to change the framerate without breaking the whole project? Last I tried, trying to export t…

    Some of the recommendations here are good classics, but if you're looking for some REALLY good ones: * Sonny 2 (really in-depth turn based RPG) * Fancy Pants Adventures 1-3 (2D pla…

    I was considering making a similar list since I was very interested in checking out alternative chat programs, but I have to say this list isn't that good. A lot of the alternative…

    This was the one to finally stop getting me to distro hop. Cachy is very easy to use and very well maintained. The performance is usually the selling point people talk about, but i…

    Absolutely. I was just reminiscing about a '97 game called "Claw". The studio that made it shut down earlier this year and I wish I could make a sort-of remake of it, but you legal…

    Uhhuh. I think anyone in the tech field can immediately tell where this is going, and I'm not at all excited for it. 1. They silently make it online only. Currently you need to mak…

    The biggest problem is probably work-related apps not working. Adobe products, MS Office, and certain niches like the music industry just aren't supported on Linux. Many ultra-popu…

    I absolutely love SRB2K but I think they overcooked Ring Racers. It's bloated with so many mechanics that the tutorial for how to play the game is literally almost an hour long. Th…

    This is very true, and it's a large part of why I never use microblogging at all, it's impossible to just find posts that fit what you want to see. That's why I mostly use Lemmy/Pi…

    I don't have a horse in which decentralized protocol wins, but while ATProtocol sounds great on paper I'm still inching closer to liking ActivityPub more. I'm pretty active on Lemm…

    Donate is the key term here. If you want there to be alternatives to everything that's getting worse, you need to make those alternatives sustainable - even if they're not there ye…

    I've always liked the idea of being able to just post anonymously without any votes, but it always quickly devolves into incoherent spam and endless slurs. The website has been act…

    It'll open the door for more ambitious webgames and web apps that use the GPU.

    It's an issue with Godot on the web unfortunately, when you're dropping frames the audio starts clipping and crackling. Judging by the other comment, the lua integration must be do…

    I would be way more interested in it playing niche community levels, because I suspect a huge reason it's able to solve these levels is because it was trained on a million Baba is …

    It's less featured and has limited 3D support, but Defold is great for making smaller games aimed at the web or mobile. It has a much smaller binary size and it's generally more st…

    Nope, which is very bizarre. I don't understand the point of the phone form factor if it doesn't have a SIM card slot. It even has a microphone and everything but you can't make ca…
