The way I use Lutris today is nothing more than a prefix manager, I click add game, set up my prefix, and install my games manually.

New features will be unlikely, but not entirely off the table if there’s a really good reason to include them.

Given this, wouldn’t simply bookmarking the last Lutris release that you find acceptable be an easier way to meet your needs?

Or are you trying to guard against Lutris disappearing or retroactively changing old versions?

Some fraction of those five million are people who bought the Denuvo-infected PC version.

Shrug… That’s a club I won’t be joining.

Here’s the recent anniversary video:

Interesting. This one looks more powerful than most attempts I’ve seen.

One of my key questions is addressed in the FAQ:

Hard link or symlink? What about a Mo2 style vfs?

• They all achieve the same goal but each comes with downsides
• Hard links can be loaded fast and take up no space, However when the source file is removed the hard link is removed which can cause issues. The hard linked file must also be on the same drive as the source file. They also look like normal files and report as taking up space which can cause confusion
• Symlinks can be created between drives and are distinguishable from normal files. Removing the source file stops the symlink from working but the symlinked file still shows as a symlink and can be easily removed. The downside of these are they much worse than hard links when playing with large modlists as they take longer to load. The manager allows you to freely swap between both methods and symlinks may be fine for smaller modlists.
• Mo2 style vfs (FUSE and overlayfs): These have the benefit of not moving any files to the game directory. I have added both of these to a test build, Neither provided any real benefit over hardlink/symlink and caused more issues than it was worth.

Does this one have some advantage over !linux@programming.dev or !linux@sopuli.xyz or !linux@lemmy.zip or !linux@linux.community or !linux@sh.itjust.works ?

And the Python programming language was named after that same troupe. :)

WASD in gaming is generally used with the hand shifted one position left of the home keys, so it would require a typist to continually reposition. ESDF or IJKL would be a better choice, and closer to what vi does.

I wish Klei hadn’t sold out to Tencent.

I don’t own a google or motorola phone, so now what?

Campaign for your favorite phone manufacturer to make a phone with the features required by GrapheneOS, and when they do, make that your next phone.

Or use something other than GrapheneOS.

They recently announced a partnership with Motorola Mobility (a subsidiary of China’s Lenovo) to offer it on a non-Google phone. Is this what you had in mind?

From the article:

The lawsuit is backed by European consumer movement “Stop Killing Games” (SKG), which was launched in response to “The ​Crew” controversy.

How are you handling it?

I handle it by not using a rolling distro. I get security updates, but I’m not interrupted every time a new version of something becomes available. I do the periodic release upgrades on my own terms: when I have time.

And how are your experiences?

Wonderful. My system is very low maintenance, which means I have more time to get work done or play games.
