Quoting: KimyrielleThis isn't a real price increase, so people need to chill.
It isn't easy to chill when your currency is about to blow up. Wait, it is because I had already found the pricing expensive and have no purchase plans.

Looking forward to Proton 8. Proton has problems with Paradox Launcher (I know, I know) but wine-staging is fine so a rebase should fix the launcher on Proton.

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualIf you're wondering why H.265/HEVC (and now VVC) never got much adoption compared to its predecessor, this is why.
I converted all of my videos to H265 back then with VLC and saved around %80-95 disk space. Do you think I should convert them to AV1, would I reclaim even more disk space? I don't care about patents because both Arch Linux and VLC just ignore their existence and ship all the codecs.

The itch.io store is doing another Creator Day today - taking no cut from developers

Quoting: LanzIt would be awesome if itch.io was integrated into the Heroic Games Launcher next.
Why? Heroic was created because a native launcher for Epic Games does not exist, while itch has a Linux native (and afaik open source) client. Heroic devs are planning to add Amazon support later this year.
