You are criticizing the verification system by comparing it to ProtonDB which, again, is a different thing.
Different in some ways but serves the same purpose.
Steam’s verification isn’t “inaccurate,”
Yes it is.
Crowdsourcing something like that would not be a good way for Valve to accomplish its goals.
Yes it would.
I can’t say I’ve ever cared about how a game looks.
Fair enough. Certainly some devs spend a ton of time making games look incredible so there’s obviously a bunch of users like me who do appreciate that, and also many who don’t!
These are “desktop environments”. They are essentially the graphical elements you interface with the operating system. icons, windows, buttons, those sort of things.
The two most common are KDE and GNOME. KDE has a very Windows-like appearance and functionality. GNOME is the same but for MacOS.
I have to agree, to the extent that it is very vanilla and missing a lot of things a new user may want but don’t know they need or don’t want to take the time to figure out how to make it work.
Bambu is in the initial phase of enshittification.
I wish they were more open
This is how you can tell.
Also every time someone links to a print on their website it begs me to download their app.
Cannot recommend.
It doesn’t help that Steam store is a nightmare to navigate.
Releasing demos is a great way to succeed. It doesn’t take me more than 5 minutes to decide if it’s something I want to continue playing.
Putting videos of nothing but cut-scenes is a great way to ensure I keep scrolling but every title seems to take this approach.
Your AI acceleration makes the whole thing a lot less genuine.

At that point just get a Mac.
There are lots and lots of reasons not to do that that I’m sure you already know but are determined to be an asshole regardless.
Gnome has the same “we know better than you do
Never seen it.
I’ve installed all sorts of things on SteamOS without “extra steps”.
I can’t say the same for Bazzite.
That’s how all chargers work. The problem is that it’s simply not great to have your battery at 100% all of the time.
That is the fun part about Linux is installing anything that’s not a Flatpak 😵💫
The process for installation is more or less the same for all of them.
Linux Mint and PopOS are the “go to” suggestions. I really don’t like the way either of them look. I’m partial to GNOME for aesthetics and ease of use.
Bazzite comes with most of the stuff you will want pre-loaded, and also the cool Steam Deck Gamescope interface. It’s the only one I’ve used with seamless background updates like you might be accustomed to on Android or iOS. That’s my recommendation.
Well first of all these games were never listed on GoG.
Secondly, they can’t (legally) do anything about a publisher refusing to sell games anymore. That’s their IP and they have the legal right to make that decision.
What they can do is ensure games that you’ve already purchased continue to work in the future.
Define “fine”. Is it playable? Sure. But it also looks quite bad at 800p/low/30fps
it’s not well equipped to handle user packages in the same way OSTree is
Can you elaborate?
0.1kWh per hour? Day? Month?
What’s in your system?
