Telegram is not private at all. Nothing is encrypted except Secret Chat.

Only 50k? I thought it would be much more than that. Didn’t know Lemmy was still this small after all these years.

You probably haven’t visited a good museum in a long time. You really should. The way they present some exhibitions is really informative and often also interactive. It’s very memorable and interesting. Wikipedia just isn’t the same and often doesn’t even have the right presentation or lacks information to get the points across.

If I could give you one advice: go look proactively for a reasonably large museum that aligns with your interests. You’ll be surprised how fun and informative it is.

Basically every Valve product and software.

Nobody needs marketing people.

I wish there was better public transport on the level of Oeffi. Google Maps is still way ahead in this regard unfortunately.

Why is this even news? The intern can implement that feature in like 5 minutes.

So why didn’t they write that? It’s a bad documentation if someone doesn’t understand it. If you’re not going to explain something, at least share a source to where it’s explained.

What’s bad about Docker? It’s secure and easy to setup.

Your hate comment lacks vital information just like the docs shared by OP.

That’s the kind of arrogant attidude that makes many docs of open-source projects so shitty. If you think that preliminary knowledge about something is required then at least share a link to a source where you can learn it. Docs that require you to puzzle the missing pieces together on your own are shitty docs. A good documentation is a documentation that everyone understands, regardless of their level of knowledge.

Wtf do they mean by shared secret for example?

I’m gonna make my life extra hard just to make a point against capitalism…

And you’re not the average gamer. You’re probably more of an average Linux user.

Your comment just shows how disconnected this community really is sometimes.

I’ve used both for 10 years. So I’m in a better position to compare both. I’m a software dev and hobby sys admin.

How is skill related to booting up an OS and launching a game? That should not require skill.

Besides, I’m probably more skillful with Linux. I could probably fix all of these issues. I just won’t. It’s much faster booting into Windows.

Not on stock Ubuntu. Don’t believe me? Reproduce with:

1. RTX 3070
2. Install Ubuntu
3. Install Minecraft
4. Launch Minecraft
5. L for stutters and screen tearing.

What else do you want me to say? The benchmarks seem to be wrong I guess.

Thanks for sharing your experience. But I don’t share that. All of my devices and games run perfectly well out of the box. Heavily modded or not. On stock Ubuntu it doesn’t. Nothing else to say.

Everyone who says Windows is a viable alternative as a daily driver for things other than using Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel is just delusional.

Thanks for bringing that up too. Because this is another prime example of popular software not running well on Linux. I’m not using that software though. I mostly just use the browser features of my Nextcloud instance for that. But browsers work just fine on Windows. Right… not even that works on Linux properly. Try watching DRM content on Firefox Linux or getting the hardware acceleration to work.

Nah man. I’m not a beginner with Linux. I’m using Ubuntu Server for hosting multiple docker images, a webserver, a Nextcloud, a professional Minecraft server. But I’m not using Linux Desktop anymore. If I need Linux for something terminal-related like easy ssh access to my server or git, then I’ll just boot up a subsystem on Windows.

Delusional.

I’ve been using Linux for over 10 years for work and dev. But for gaming it’s still absolute dogshit. You need to constantly tinker to get shit to work.

• Even Minecraft, which is just Java, runs at 20% less FPS than on Windows, constant stutters and screen tearing that Vsync won’t fix.
• And then there is all of the RTX raytraced games that are broken or have considerably worse performance. - What about 5.1 surround speakers that work out of the box but will not work on Linux. I tried every driver and every tinker. So I can basically enjoy my game without sound, because my Razer headset also won’t connect automatically on boot. I have to unplug the dongle every single time.
• Ah yes, forgot about all of the Anticheat games. Nope, stop blaming it on the game devs. As an end-user, I don’t care about that.
• Then what about my Logitec mouse and keyboard and Corsair RGB? Can’t configure that either.

So this basically leaves me with half of my game library than on Windows, half of my gaming hardware, no sound, and a worse performance even in Minecraft.

Everyone who says Linux is a viable alternative as a daily driver for things other than software dev or sys admin is just delusional.

Obviously.

Featureset looks nice but the UI looks horrendous and dated.
