    Nobara is based on Fedora and maintained by GloriousEggroll. It has a lot of kernel-level tweaks and pre-installed software that aims to make it easier to start gaming right out of the gate

  • With the release of bazzite 2.0 and the existence of other steamOS-like distros like chimera OS, I'm just wondering if anyone is running their steam deck with a different distro than what was shipped. How does the experience stack up, do you prefer something like chimera or bazzite? Just wondering if I'm missing out by keeping the stock OS.

    I've lived in Denver for the past 15 years or so, this is a problem I relate to. If you live in a house or apartment with drywall, it turns out that the corners are made of metal under the plaster. For years I have discharged myself by bumping my forearms against the corner of a wall before flipping a light switch to avoid a painful shock on the tips of my fingers

    I was selfhosting a lemmy instance just for myself, to be able to connect and post to other instances. I had no communities or users. I ended up shutting it down because at the end of the day, I just don't want stuff like CSAM making its way onto my home server because someone with ill intent bombarded a server I'm federated with. I still believe in the fediverse and lemmy in general, and no, I don't think I'm going to get raided and arrested. But the fear just outweighed the pleasure I got from my little selfhosting project. I'm happy that other instances are up and running, and that I can post from them. I'll also be excited to redeploy a personal server in the future when I feel that development has progressed enough that the risk to myself is low enough to still find pleasure in the project.
