Yes, SteamOS does count as Linux. Android does not. The Android and iOS Steam app is just for social features / store, not for playing games so neither show up on the survey.
SteamOS Holo, which is what the Steam Deck uses, makes up 42% of the Linux systems in the survey results.
Unless I'm misunderstanding, that's all related to those KDE packages. I'd say if you're a heavy user of Plasma or apps relying on those KDE packages you might as well enable it.
Up to your comfort level though, personally I don't mind for stuff like that. On KDE's community site they have this showing what telemetry is collected for Plasma.
Haven't really felt the need to. On Linux ad blocking + common sense has worked out fine. When I was still using Windows I just relied on Windows Defender since around the Windows 8.1 days, but either way my time downloading .exe files from sketchy sites is long behind me.
The Valve one has been the most exciting for me. AFAIK Valve has been thinking about the issues with Windows controlling PC gaming since Windows 8 first came out. The Steam Machines were a flop at the time but in recent years they've been able to maks big moves for Linux gaming and instead of giving up has been doubling down on the importance of it.
You don't gotta know how to code to use Linux. Maybe some basic skills in scripting will be useful as a tool but other than that it's more about learning how the system is laid out and where to go to do things. Just becoming familiar with doing things in a Linux environment
Yeah, its a bit much. But hey, it's something that brings a lot of the users here together. Common ground to get conversation going and gets the new Reddit refugees interacting with content on here. After a while it'll probably die down but it's very much at the forefront of new users' minds.
Scary but hey at least Reddit isn't handing out the info so easily in this instance
This is one of those things that I'd come across and went "huh thats pretty cool" then promptly for got about, so this is a nice reminder about distrobox haha
I'll have to go back and mess with it, such a cool tool to have
It's been refreshing that my lemmy subscription feed is purely related to my hobbies and misc interests and makes me want to come back more often. my main reddit feed has been so full of unnecessary filler for a while now, im actually getting more value out of browsing here instead
But yea idk if the habit of adding site:reddit.com to searches is gonna go away any time soon lol
I'm still able to on Relay. The dev announced he has to move to a subscription model but its still free for the time being and seems to work fine still.
For most people using a tiling window manager is something they want for their whole user experience, not just for tiling terminals haha
Even when you're not intentionally plagiarizing, Turnitin may catch something that could screw you over when the assignment is submitted. Sometimes you have a chance to see what Turnitin analyzes and resubmit the assignment but OP is saying they can only submit it once so they want to use the Grammarly checker first.
