Quoting: CyrilSorry guys, but the only real good alternative out there is Peertube.

Biggest downside is that there is not really a PeerTube Player for Desktop not to mention one which bundles YT and PeerTube. Thats why I mostly watch YT with FreeTube on Desktop maybe I should try setting up NewPipe for Linux.
PS: There is TubeFeeder but it doesnt really work and is mainly designed for Linux Phones.

Hmm, what do you mean by "PeerTube Player for Desktop"? NewPipe/Freetube exist only for Youtube because the site is "shit" for many reasons.
There is no need for this kind of player on Desktop for Peertube seriously... For Android maybe, but you could use anything you want, Peertube is not Youtube, it doesn't restrict you...
Plus, I think the use of "apps" for everything is just a bad practice from the mobile world...

I find it difficult to be subscribed and keep track of so many PeerTube channels just from Mastodon, sure I could create a PeerTube account but than there is the think with settings or blocked instances etc and also the combined Feed from NewPipe is just beautiful and something I really miss on desktop. It just isnt convenient to watch PeerTube videos or to simply keep track of the good ones and the nice to have ones just within the Browser from Mastodon alone(I had a PeerTube account in the past but also didnt like it there).

Quoting: ShabbyXWhile this was obviously a bug in their algorithm, said algorithm is also preventing brainwash videos from turning your child into a terrorist, racist etc.

Would you have rathered such an algorithm not exist? People should bear in mind the terrible complexity that such an algorithm entails. Can *you* code such an algorithm? If not, you can't expect it all to work flawlessly.

If your child can get of trail just by watching some videos than there are clearly some other issues. Also in that case rating the video as "not qualified for kids" would be enough.
There would be plenty of options for YouTube to do a better job(let creators rate their videos them self, have different levels of visibility, hire more moderators, have a better reporting system etc), also there are other issues with the algorithm like hiding content from subscribed viewers and promoting content that YouTube finds for some reason more promotable.
Yes no system is perfect but YouTube clearly isnt doing enough, this isnt a new issue but an old one.

No trouble on Manjaro Testing for me, could even play Warhammer: Vermintide 2

Maybe you could assemble a list or report about good Minetest Games such as MineClone5 etc, because playing just Minetest doesnt really cuts it, also MineClone is nice but it kinda doesnt catch up to Minecraft while just being a clone instead of trying to achieve more.
So if you happen to stumble across some good or interesting Minetest Projects/Games I would be happy if you would write about them.

Maybe you should then also include the Split Distros Marketshare in the SteamTracker from the current(pre-Deck) survey onwards.

Updated text on Download page to clarify when player is downloading a patch vs an initial download

Wasn't there supposed to be some designation (in the desktop client's download page) for shader downloads? I still see Steam downloading a bunch of (presumably shader) updates on most restarts, with no indication of what it is. The Tomb Raider games have a PATCH NOTES link, but they point at Windows updates from last year, so not very useful.

Same here, initially I thought that its just because Steam adds new precached shaders very frequently, but considering that it is after every PC restart and that 2 updates ago or so a bug for the Steam Client was fixed that made steam load every update twice, I now start to think that this also might be a similar bug.🤔
