PC and Nintendo Switch does not sound like Linux at all. I also don't like the art style and the surrounding drama. Muted Ron Gilbert on Twitter.

Discover never really worked well on openSUSE for me. It took ages to refresh Flathub with a progress bar locked into 98 % without any movement. It always greets me with a checksum failure. It is a bit sad, as YaST is powerful, but not nearly as nice when browsing for software.

To be honest, I never liked the art style of those 90s renderings of 3D models. The pixel art of the original Settlers II is way more timeless.
