The actual answer, there is no reason to switch. The vast majority of users do not care about Linux or why they would want to. For us there are lots of benefits and things we enjoy about getting away from Windows but for them "why?"

A legend to the very end, you and the other mods helped keep the fire alive.

I also have a great gaming PC so I do most of my major AAA gaming on that. People will talk about how great games like Elden Ring, RE4, or even Cyberpunk run on the deck but the experience is so degraded on the mobile platform that I'd rather play other games on Deck.

Things like Emulation, JRPGS, Platformers, Indie games fucking excel on the deck. The experience playing them there is so much better when being able to take it and go places.

If you are only interested in playing major AAA games or shooters, probably not worth it

The problem with the Switch is that it’s requirements for the dock are really strange, what makes it worse is that it’s in a hardware level, so the dock has to be specifically designed for it.

I am not OP but since they didn't provide any I went and found some

Personally, I think this is a case of people trying to make the policing issue in the USA a global one. While I acknowledge that many countries, including mine, have problems with policing, I don't believe it is highly controversial to consider hiring someone with a background in law enforcement.

The PCBs and switches for my all-button fight pads didn't arrive before Friday, but I did manage to get the RP2040s in beforehand. Since it's a long weekend and I wanted to play some Mario Maker, I quickly put this together. It takes the keyboard and maps the keys to a controller, and it works really well.

I am going to give wefwef a try. I was using Mlem at first but I wasn't a fan. Still a bit worried about wefwef as I wasn't a fan of Apollo at all but willing to try!

Thanks for putting together this list!

Essentially, the big issue is that Twitch went from a 70/30 sub split to 50/50 for a lot of its larger creators. Most smaller creators started at 50/50 and once they grew they were able to negotiate better contracts for the 70/30 but it was since then removed.

The biggest issue imo is that streamers don't fully comprehend the costs of Twitch and say things like "Amazon can afford it" (Quote from a major streamer on the platform). What they fail to realize is that Amazon isn't running Twitch as a charity and if it continues to not be profitable it could be shut down just like Mixer was.

I am not bootlicking Twitch either, streamers need to eat and taking 50% of a major revenue stream is a difficult pill to swallow.

Storage! You are gonna need a lot more storage.

Destiny 2! The game is total trash. The combat is so fucking boring, its just nothing but bullet sponge bosses with simple ass mechanics.

I know that lots of people love it but man I do not understand lol

Thats is pretty gross. Why is that the greater community continues to pre-order everything!

A popular CoD Streamer had his in game content removed due to some inappropriate comments on Twitter. Then the CoD community responded how you would expect them to by doubling down...

I did this on my upgrade from 256GB to 1TB!

Instead of using gparted though I booted Clonezilla off the Deck and cloned it that way, took about 45-60 minutes to clone the drive and I was up and going. Honestly would suggest anyone do it that way if possible.

Let me know if you've got some questions.
