That’s actually crazy… I have had an Instagram since like the start but have no posts on my account. I guess I have a pfp but that’s it. I also don’t really get on it.

This is probably an unpopular opinion especially on this sub and something that will probably never happen realistically with the way the world is going but it is an extremely cool feature. If this was not done by companys that already harvest data etc and was as private as something like this can be such as your device communication to another device has a uuid that does not tie back to “you” if that makes sense or something not sure. Because there are some use cases that could be extremely good such as the one comment here about stalkers etc.

I did not know gamescope was a flatpak… For me gamescope did not do anything after installaling for like 2 hours of troubleshooting why it was not installing. I’m also on mint

Thanks for your detailed response. I did discover that my GPU load (etc 3080) was maxing out witch is the normal for windows aswell it’s just weird that I get like half the fps for the same amount of work. I don’t really play halo Infinite as much anymore and when I do I just decide to boot windows. I’m not exactly experienced in Linux or what to try to change to make it work better. I do plan on sometime upgrading to a newer os to try a newer Nvidia driver to see if that fixes it or makes it better. I do believe I have mouse acceleration off in my OS unless there are multiple ways to have it turned on.

Thanks again :)

I remember playing this awhile ago it’s actually pretty solid from what I remember.

Yea so I tried nobara and to be honest unless I’m stupid it sucked… Constant graphical issues no matter the application(I could not play halo Infinite it started I old load game but then it would break). So I then put on mint after a day and downloaded Nvidia drivers through there GUI and then wine (not entirely sure what it does to be honest) and tried some games all worked great/well.

This might be my misunderstanding but when you say mainstream distribution what do you mean. My understanding is mint is built on Ubuntu similar to how nobara is built on fedora. So for example if something broke or I wanted to something on mint I can follow Ubuntu instructions (kind of) and follow fedora for nobara? Sorry if this is dumb question

omg that link is so cool thanks

I actually just found that on there page thanks :)

Won’t I have to install Nvidia drivers? This is my big concern if I’m being frank (I have a Nvidia card)

Thanks looking into it first on your list is mint I have heard alot of good things about this one might give it a go.

Ok that’s true… No idea is all messed up.

I’m guessing they signed that dotted line by making an account.

Great work :)

Yes agreed I have been looking for a new search engine I was using something like 4get or something but it wanted me to do a captcha every day.

Yes a debloater would be helpful probably. Just disappointing as part of the reason I went with the pixel was this option but now it’s not one.

Since your comment is recent. Do you know if I do this does it void insurance on the phone if I break it beyond repair. EX drop a weight on it (from experience). I read it voids warrentys but what about insurance? And if you do it to a phone and return/trade in that phone going from p6 to p8 is that acceptable. If you dont know all is well thanks

Never liked Android auto anyway :) was always annoying for me.

Thanks for clearing everything up along of other threads always just said he was homophobic and that’s the only reason to not use brave.

I have had good luck with squawker it broke awhile ago but works as of right now.

If I’m being honest the switch from Reddit to Lemmy and this instance…

This. I wish there was a front end that was easy to use like nitter or squawker for Twitter.

OK, great I will probably set up the self host thing later but will use the non self hosted version first. Thanks :)

I’m looking into this not the first time I heard of it. Do I have to self host. Do I host it on the machine I want to remote into?

Aight I’ll give it a look I never even looked for more than one client.

I have been using keepass2android from the play store… Is that not good?
