Question about Proton

I am buying a friend’s PC for games. I want to avoid windows if at all possible, and I’m wondering what people’s experience using Proton in Linux for gaming has been. Are there certain publishers who use libraries Proton doesn’t handle well? Are there distros to avoid using with proton? Any other notes I should be aware...

Can someone explain Pipe's LBRY usage to me?

Soo, I just set up my own Piped instance and noticed that you could disable “LBRY-integration”. I did a very quick search and learned that this is some sort of decentralised content sharing thingy.

[support] Has anyone else been having trouble interacting with Lemmy off and on these past few days?

But it usually messes up my system. is there a safe way to have several desktops installed? or do you pretty much install a...

Well, Cities: Skylines 2 is here, and it's another broken game release.

I don’t really understand how people make the review threads, but we’re sitting at a 77 on OpenCritic right now. Many were worried about game performance after the recommended specs were released, but it looks like it’s even worse than we expected. It sounds like the game is mostly a solid release except for the...

Warning: ubuntu tpm recovery key cannot unlock disk outside of boot

Hi everybody, bit of a warning here: The recovery key generated during the installation of Ubuntu 23.10 (if you select tpm-backed fde) cannot be used to unlock the disk outside of boot, as in any ‘cryptsetup’ command and so on will not accept the recovery key. unlocking when accessed from different system does not work etc....
