Oh did not know that, sad to hear.

They did remove traffic to the old Yuzu domains though, which now are in the hands of Nintendo, used to monitor which users use emulators.

Do you have other suggestions for promising successor forks?

Suyu, it’s the continuation/fork of Yuzu:

Also Azahar, the continuation/fork of Citra:

Been using VSCodium for a few years now, for loose file editing,
no complaints about it, imo it’s what VSCode should be.

Bootkitty?

However,
you can already patch your BIOS to become secure again! :)

All in all, Windows security is a joke compared to Linux’s.

Windows is not getting better,
CoPilot, Recall, all more unwanted spyware…

UniGetUI is a good way to maintain software on Windows in a Linux fashion through package managers,
however that does not change that the underlying OS is pure spyware.

That behavior fucking sucks actually

No, instead they raped his rights with some ToS…

*Nintendont

The lawsuit company which makes games on the side strikes again.

Wayland might be the future,
but today we’re still living in the present…

I was a fan, and tried Wayland,
but it took less then 24hrs before I switched back to X.

Just too many random bugs remain in Wayland rn…

E.g:

• Grayed out screen under HDR
• LookingGlass unable to boot in fullscreen
• Some program icons replaced with Wayland icon when running
• …

You can ditch YouTube,
without actually ditching YouTube content,
through a privacy respecting alternative frontend:

My favorite ones:

• Desktop: Invidious + Piped
• Android: Newpipe + Tubular

Currently at 30ish hours and still enjoying it.

Reminded me that Bethesda does release some great / huge games.

Albeit quite bugged at release,
but since they (usually) embrace the modding scene, lots of this can be / has been patched and even improved by the community.

The Next Gen update is a stupid cash-grab though, and imo should have never happened…

An official modpack would have been much better.

My “nExT gEn” update experience:

1. Get baited to re-play Fallout 4 through the new TV show + Next Gen update
2. Be disappointed since the graphics aged like milk + Official HD texture DLC sucks
3. Be disappointed since the update broke nearly all mod support
4. Roll back to the release before the Next Gen update + Uninstall the Official HD texture DLC
5. Install 205 mods, and happily play with nearly everything in 4K

FYI, most mods I installed are from:

• The Midnight Ride:
  https://themidnightride.moddinglinked.com/
• ESO-UI High End:
  https://eso-ui.com/fallout4-high-end/

English is not my native language,
my mistake, corrected it.

Did not know that,
however it won’t make me change up my mind about Nintendont.

All their previous lawsuites and takedowns against the modding and emulation communities, where not fake, nor trolls, and made me despise them.

Nintendont,
the lawsuit company that makes games on the side, strikes again…

We’re well beyond the point by now of me ever buying anything from them again.
I won’t support such behavior of any company.

Wikiless?
The original project was taken down by Wikipedia, but this appears to be an active fork of it:
https://github.com/Metastem/wikiless

For me the experience has been:

• Stable
• Easy to use
• Enjoyed all the Arch niceness in the meantime.

Which imo makes it a good distro,
idiots would not make a good distro…

Sure the people behind it made some doubtful decisions in the past, but that doesn’t change the fact that using it has been a bliss.

Additionally, it’s all open source,
so if they would ever turn anti-consumer,
it can be forked into another distro.

As I mentioned earlier, stop the distro hate.
I’m not throwing acquisitions against other distros, instead I let people enjoy whatever flavor of Linux they desire…

By now I helped a fair amount of Arch and other distro users through Lemmy / AUR / Issues, and I also learned a fair amount of Arch / Manjaro and other distro users.

Linux is not the enemy here,
not a single flavor…

Why?

It has been my main distro for years now,
and I have only enjoyed the experience.

2 points you’ll likely mention which do not make it a bad distro:

• The certificate of their website expired twice
• If you use AUR packages,
  sometimes you need to wait with an update since they hold back official repo packages for a few weeks to ensure stability, which AUR packages might depend on.

Stop the distro hate,
it divides the Linux community…
Instead we should unify against M$/iFruit,
and let people use whatever distro they like.
