  • That’s fair, but as someone who likes to contribute to FOSS projects with features that I want, I’d like every tool I use to be FOSS, so I can make them work exactly the way I want them to, while also providing something to those that don’t want to/can’t pay for a tool like this, or just don’t want to have the inevitablity of having spent hundreds of hours getting used to a tool, only for the owning company to make it unusable for you.

    In FOSS projects, if a project starts to go a route you don’t like, you can ignore all future updates and still get the exact experience you wanted.


  • I think this is what Louis was going for. He doesn’t want to ask for no more companies, just companies that make a product (doesn’t even need to be a good one) where its sole purpose is to try (doesn’t even need to succeed) and be useful to the consumer.

    I think he hit his mark pretty well for the symbol, but whether or not I agree with his view on things is a different story entirely.



  • Yup. Linux + Nvidia is the problem here. I convinced my friend to move to Linux, explaining that all his favorite Steam games work on my Linux machine with no issues, just download and click play, tested it myself. Turns out, I don’t have an nvidia gpu, he does, and a lot of the games straight up don’t work, and the ones that do need at least one config change, if not more.

    I have yet to have any issues on Steam myself when gaming with my Radeon card.
