I go to your site pretty often, dreaming of the day when I have more time for gaming. It feels like a human being is writing it, and I suspect you will outlast the slop. Don't let the haters grind you down!
I know saying "don't let it get to you" isn't helpful, but that's bullshit. Yours is the most useful site I know of for gamers on Linux, and while not every article is of use to me personally, I've never seen "slop."
I made an account on your website over 11 years ago, but I was already following it a long time before that already. You're doing fantastic work ever since!
Liam, you do good work mate! I enjoy following you on Mastodon. I quit Reddit two years ago and my life is measurably better. That place is a dumpster fire.
I wouldn't trust anything said on an actual slop site like reddit. I've followed your site (RSS) since probably the first roumors about valve and proton which I think you wrote about. Can't say I've seen any slop so far.
Companies have no ethics nor morals, especially not banks and their ilk, so they have no business putting their nose into that. Today it’s incest, when will it be magic, representation, and LGBTQ+?
Valve has no way to fight this. Banks/payment processors could simply decide to not work with valve and they have no way of doing business.
A sincere thank you to the whole team for working on forgejo, providing a free, user-centric forge. Your work is much needed, you're making the world a better place 💙
(This also applies to the friends at @Codeberg who provide both an easy to use instance and a testbed at scale for forgejo!)
My personal highlight of this release: You can now use your #fediverse handle in #markdown documents and it will be marked up as a link to your user profile (or group, etc.). forgejo.org/2025-07-release-v1… I'm excited about the future, when mentioning fediverse handles will actually be federated and will send notifications everywhere! #Forgejo #Federation #forgefed

I don't need another controller, at this point I have 7 but another couldn't hurt right? The 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth with swappable magnetic ABXY looks lovely.
@ThePfromtheO thanks for the assistance. My criticism is that there is one click to consent to everything and about 18 to reject everything. It is clearly a design to have it their way.
@johnskk @ThePfromtheO Also, as counterintuitive as it is for me to suggest it, you can read the article without actioning the cookie thing at all if you're using a browser with reader mode: just hit the reader mode button or shortcut and it'll do its thing. I'm not sure how well reader mode picks up some of the in-page callouts I use (pull quotes, info boxes, spec tables) but, just an idea.

Google has said it is 'combining ChromeOS and Android into a single platform'. Why is it happening, and will the merger mean the end of ChromeOS as a brand?
I THINK the page doesn't show them all even if you click "show more" a bunch of times. The notice at the top says "Viewing 50 latest updates" and stuff like, say, Elden Ring, isn't there (which I can't confirm but also can't imagine not being on the list as "works, EAC")
I've been playing it on Nobara since it came out and... well it's not great. It's literally 1:1 the mobile game :( I still already have more than 10 hours in it 💀
Heroes of Science and Fiction is the new name for Silence of the Siren from Oxymoron Games, as they try to pull in more fans of Heroes of Might and Magic.
Lost Ark is a free to play MMO from Smilegate RPG and Amazon Games that was previously blocked on Linux platforms like SteamOS / Steam Deck but now works.
Steam could have chosen to sell such games only via wallet balance / gift cards, sidestepping any concerns payment operators had. That they have instead had to remove them entirely shows massive overreach from these payment orgs.
What a lovely reminder that people seriously need to stop pushing that platform so hard. Valve isn't pure evil like some corporations these days, but they sure aren't all that good either. It's a locked in platform with serious limits and lack of sufficient competition allowing them to do stuff like this to publishers and devs.
@nazokiyoubinbou This happens literally *anywhere*. If the store takes money, they have to follow the processor rules. This is not a Valve issue, it's a payment processor issue.
Marking this down specifically against Valve is not the way to go.
I'm not so sure about that. I don't see such issues with, for example, GoG. But then too, even if that is 100% the case, Valve is one of those that could put their foot down and refuse. I guarantee no payment processor would want to lose Valve for very long with the business going to a competitor. That's one of the advantages of having a near monopoly. But the other (from Valve's point of view) is that they can make decisions like these and people won't stop using their service.
@nazokiyoubinbou Friendly reminder that corporate America can, will, and have gone scorched earth when there’s something they value higher than profits.
For example Walmart shutting down whole stores simply to stop unionization (and their evil propaganda they run for their poor employees).
So now they're coming for Valve. It's that alliance of fundamentalist Christians and online payment providers that has been harassing all kinds of social web platforms, pressuring them to either forbid their users from publishing any nudity and anything vaguely sexual or else face the shutdown of their cash flow.
If steam took #Monero #XMR (ie an actually #private cryptocurrency unlike bitcoin/ethereum) there would be no payment processor authority that could enforce this, just #steam would set the rules, thats an advantage of #cryptocurrency
It has long been curious to me how sex (or even involved romantic relationships) are beyond the pale in video games but ultraviolence is the accepted central premise of the game.
Imagine an Assassin’s Creed where the several thousand body count referred to the number of satisfied sexual partners rather than decapitated guards.

Let them waste their time complaining and commenting while you actually get shit done.
All the praise and respect to you, you've earned it, Liam! Don't let them bastards get to you!
