I really liked the first Icewind Dale but never played through the second. Should try it again with this engine.

When I started to properly Game:tm: on Linux, i used Kubuntu non-LTS. It was very good for what it did.

I am Fedora KDE fanboy these days due to it being excellent development platform with the side of gaming. But Kubuntu is excellent choice as well.

Like others I would also recommend non-LTS, you get more up-to-date software which is still tested and updated every 6 months.

Popular multiplayer code editor Zed gets a Linux release

Having tried it, it was pretty slow compared to other editors I've used. The fonts are also quite blurry, it's full of AI stuff :sick:, it looks like Mac app even on Linux, has some weird Mac keyboard symbols for shortcuts, there's no debugger support...

I know it's just first release on Linux and I hope it gets better, but for now I saw no reason to use it over Kate or Helix.

You can luckily toggle off the AI bullshit from the settings but it being plastered everywhere really tells me who the audience is, and I don't think it's me. Also they seemed to equate Git with Github, because only Github services were supported.

On positive side though, it was very easy to get going with it and the config, while being editing json files (why??), was still alright experience.
