Ahahaha. I’ve tried them all, bare bones wine, bottles even the payed version of crossover and the thing is that they’re all a fucking joke. Don’t be delusional you know as well as I do those things don’t provide a good experience nor a good result.

Yeah sure and then it fails because some WINE compatibility issue or because you’ve to manually install half of Windows on Wine manually before being able to install anything useful.

Here’s your why: lemmy.world/comment/4119679

This is kind of another problem, why can’t we have self-contained one click things anymore. Nowadays its all about dependency hell, cloud based stuff and whatnot. It doesn’t matter if you’re under Windows or Linux still the same crap, long gone are the days when we could get a game on a CD/DVD and be able to install that offline for ever. There should be laws in place against this, software is becoming very “volatile” mostly unreliable and unusable after months or years.

So why aren’t they packing the games as flatpaks with their dependencies all baked in?

This is for my users, none of whom are experienced enough to do offline image editing.

This statement doesn’t make any sense. You seem to be looking for a open-source version of Photopea because GIMP / Paint.net is hard to use? lol

TCB13 , 9 months ago to linux in Requesting folder encryption recommendations

Unless I’m missing something, what I need is something that I can point to a folder and say “this is encrypted” and it will mount an unencrypted version of that somewhere. What ECryptfs does is that it encrypts any file I place on the foder individually / doesn’t create a single block of data that is hard to sync. GPG is file by file manually.

TCB13 , 9 months ago to linux in Requesting folder encryption recommendations

I need something that is able to encrypt single files - not an entire disk / partition / volume or a disk image. I’m using Syncthing on those encrypted files so having them as a partition or single file doesn’t work out.

Yes, until you’ve to build it from the source because… bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=928956

Unfortunately ECryptfs seems to be only one that supports inotify as the other popular solutions (gocryptfs, encfs, cryfs) are all FUSE based and it doesn’t seem to play very well with inotify. And cryptomator is another FUSE joke that will lead to data loss.

Isn’t that Webkit as well? lol

Okay my bad, last time I checked Codeberg they UI was funky (contrast and all) now seems to be way more reasonable.
