Quoting: HighballIf you close steam
run this command  
sed -i -e '/SurveyDate/ s/"[0-9].*"/"'$(date +%Y-%m-%d -d "1 year ago")'"/' ~/.steam/steam/config/config.vdf
Then reopen steam
You will get a steam survey.

I would prefer the login and playtime data as well. Hit me up Valve; I can make this happen for you.

Yeah, this works -- even though I'm using steam in a container. I wish they could just do it every three months -- at least for Linux users. I think that's a reasonable time between distro-hopping and stuff, so that the Linux distro division remains fresh.

I hope Valve release SteamOS officially for end-user and OEM soon. I don't really care who makes the hardware, I just want them to use SteamOS and Linux by-default.

I was about to ask for Nobara as well, since it's currently the distro in my PC as well. Though, there's also been a lot of new distro making a splash as of late -- Vanilla OS, blendOS, Pika OS, Cachy OS, and others. Do we have a criteria for what distro can be added/requested to be added?

Quoting: pentarctagonI think I want the technical description then? What measures are used to determine that "the app is published on Flathub by its original developer or a third party approved by the developer"?

I think it's domain ownership? Similar to how they base the top level domain in their tld.packager.package format name for flatpak apps.

Nice. Still waiting for Native Host Messaging to progress, and I'm really hoping for that portal for usb-control and communicating with other flatpak apps progresses soon. But Flatpak is pretty nice when it works -- and Nix, Distrobox, and Conty covers up the rest.

Legitimately, I've gotten annoyed whenever I need to install packages to my host system nowadays.

Interestingly enough, I recently tested the Lutris' Flatpak runner and it worked... even though I was using Flatpak Lutris. I was able to run flatpak yuzu from flatpak lutris. I don't think that's very compliant to what Flatpak wants, but for migrating to a flatpak-focused install, that helps. I hope that it gets incorporated to a real "use installed Flatpak executable" option for the runners.

I still feel like Lutris is currently repaying a technical debt accrued over the years as it needs to adapt to the new needs of gaming and Linux trends of the past two years. I hope it gets there, but for now, I prefer Heroic for managing Wine games. It's just more straightforward.

Thanks for the template, been wanting a horizontal bar for mangohud, but wasn't sure how to do it.

You wanna know what's the greatest part about this thing is? I was a nay-sayer, I thought "normal protonup was good enough, especially as I use fish anyways."

Now I use this to install to manage Wine and Proton versions.

Hi Liam, is Nobara qualified to be added as a separate distribution? If so, can it be added?

On that note, would it be possible for "Others" to allow for user-input? I understand the worry of people using it for vandalism, but I think it could be a good gauge of minor distro that might be worth it to add to the list.

Thanks regardless!

Nice. Though I hear that this doesn't affect DX12 games?
