they're going to ipo soon, so say hello to the enshittification. Even more reason for devs NOT to use this integration (I hope).

increased frequency of content release, introduce free-to-play touchpoints, and integrate more social featuresAKA all three of these ip's are dead. LOL this is going to be hilarious to watch. I haven't cared about any of these games in a LONG time so it doesn't bother me if they ruin it to death with microtransactions and shit, but for fans of these games ... ouch. hate it for ya.

Absolutely wonderful game, I highly recommend it for fans of single player scifi space games. Great to see this big update!

omg omg YESSSS this is amazing!!! I've never played poe1 specifically because it lacked tb mode combat, I don't like real time anything. So this is fantastic news!! Absolutely loved poe2 to death, probably my fav crpg in the last 10 years. And right now having a blast in Avowed, so this will be wonderful to play later this year with tb mode. Wooo!

I absolutely loved the dredge exploration, revealing the map, trying to figure out how to catch the difficult fish, day and night cycling, etc... I thought it was wonderful all the way until the end.
Fedora Linux 42 Beta and Fedora Asahi Remix 42 Beta released

Very excited for official release next month! I think I'll do a full wipe and reinstall from scratch (I just like doing that every now and then anyway). It takes me almost no time to get all my apps set back up, and then I just let steam download all my games overnight.
I was going to go with the cosmic spin, but honestly I just don't think it's ready. According to their own page, it's still in alpha 6, and I'm just not ready to use an alpha level os as my daily driver, especially since I do lots of actual work on this machine. I bet it needs another 6mo-1yr for it to be ready for me to try. That said, I'm very excited for the work they're doing!!!
For f42, I will just stick with plasma.

Has anyone ever used/tried Revolt? Open source, and the interface looks exactly like discord (or any other chat app ever lol)

Neither do I. If this somehow takes off and becomes widespread, I'll just block the entire service at a network level so I won't ever have to be bothered by it. Discord is just yet another closed private "social" service that will ipo soon and then be legally required by that ipo to enshittify itself to death.
I so wish an open source competitor that's not driven by capitalist greed would take its place, but oh well.
