Agree with you. The goal of a tool should be to simplify the life of the developer, not requiring to ask somebody else to correct the mistake of this tool.....
There's been reports of a Steam data breach recently, and instead of jumping the gun I reached out to Valve first to see what was going on. Here's a statement from Valve.
The open source Mesa 25.0.6 graphics drivers bug-fix release is out now, and thankfully this one comes with the updates needed to run DOOM: The Dark Ages on Linux with Proton when you have an AMD GPU.
The goal of this PPA is to provide the latest point release of Mesa plus select non-invasive early backports. Deviations from upstream packages are listed on the package details page.

Which is why, even if this ends up being someone's idea of a bad joke and turned out to be a false flag, I would still suggest people review their security. -- There is no harm in being cautious.
@gamingonlinux @seyon Even if this ends up being a false flag, changing your password to something longer (or in some cases something more random) is a good practice.

@seyon I beg to differ: the benefit of changing passwords or MFA factor very much depends on ones risk assessment and possible attack vectors. For most people using MFA and using strong passwords generated and stored in ones password manager is more than enough. No need to regularly change them, besides of confirmed data breaches or stolen credentials, IMHO @gamingonlinux
Rogue Worlds is a new free chaotic tactical roguelite platformer that's a spin-off of Aura of Worlds, a paid bigger game from developer Cognitive Forge. It looks really good and can't argue with that price.
Moonsigil Atlas has a demo out now and it's already shot right up to the top of my wishlist. The idea of fusing a Slay the Spire styled deck-builder with something sort-of Tetris-like is just incredibly slick.
Rescue Ops: Wildfire is an upcoming immersive firefighter simulation game where you (and friends, if you have any) get to attempt to put out dynamic, unpredictable mega-fires.

Rift Riff is all about jumping through portals (okay Rifts, whatever) and extracting precious juice. Monsters don't like you doing that though but the juice must flow. It's out now with Native Linux support.
Thomas "GloriousEggroll" Crider has released GE-Proton 10-1 bringing over all the changes from Proton 10 Beta to this community-made compatibility layer, along with lots of specific game fixes for Linux / SteamOS + Steam Deck.
Valve are on a bit of a roll lately with multiple nice Team Fortress 2 (TF2) updates coming in to fix up various issues. The latest changes the networking options for making your own game, allowing you to set who can join it.
Hardware vendor ZOTAC have announced they're working on a new ZOTAC GAMING ZONE Handheld, with a prototype that will be shown off at COMPUTEX 2025 running Linux.

We are grateful for all of the contributors who make the Fedora Project what it is.
Why not nominate a Fedora contributor you know to be recognized at the Fedora Mentor Summit this year? Appreciation is key to keeping a community friendly and collaborative, so share the love!

NordVPN has announced a major update to its Linux app, adding a much-requested GUI front-end that makes it easier to control, configure and monitor secure connections. Linux users have been able to...
I really am confused, because this is not new news. NordVPN (along with their other company, Surf Shark VPN) has had a user-friendly GUI for years now.
@Linux On Linux? According to them, they haven't. I don't use their VPN so I'm not familiar. They sent me over a press release about the announcement today.
I respect 8BitDo for their controller variety and modernization of old controllers, but their D-pads suck ass, giving way to dual inputs when rocking or rolling on one direction.
I was given a Barney doll on my second birthday. According to my parents, I set it down on the coffee table, took a step back, and held an excited look of anticipation for several seconds.
You see, in the original VHS tapes, Barney was a doll that the kids would set down on a table, and then he transformed into the full-sized Barney. I clearly thought my real-life Barney doll would do the same thing.
I'm not sure I've ever recovered from this betrayal.
Saleblazers is an Early Access survival game that seems to be a little more on the unique side, with it adding in a shopkeeper element and now it should play better on Steam Deck and perhaps from your sofa on a living room PC too.
part of the reason (maybe the main reason) it's so chaotic is that the trajectory plots out a path where your ship would go up to N ticks into the future, but it does not simulate the movement of the planets and other bodies as well; it projects into a future where the only moving object is your ship
maybe I'll get around to fixing that later? way bigger problems to deal with first at this point

Many American children and teenagers are oppressed constantly by pervasive surveillance by their own parents. One summer camp has a policy of refusing to provide parents with "surveillance as a service". The kids need to become accustomed to life unmonitored, and parents need to get used to going for days without monitoring their kids.
Are daily photos from overnight camp a big issue? Probably not the biggest. But they are part of a culture where parents have increasingly come to expect the ability to watch their kids at all times, even from afar — or at least have been trained to…
Love customising mechs and going into battle? Granvir: Zero Front is a new prologue, acting as a long-term demo for the bigger game of Granvir that's due out later. Seems to be worth a look if you love mech action.
With DOOM: The Dark Ages about to release for everyone on May 15th, and with Advanced Access available, it seems it needs some workarounds to run on Linux with AMD GPUs. This is likely what Valve already solved in SteamOS for Steam Deck.

That sounds very reasonable to me.

I assume it’ll totally botch idioms and domain specific language though.
