Wasn't 6.18 about to be the new LTS kernel?

That line to buy the new steam controller will be very weird with 10000 firsts in line 😆

Text size is a concerning. They should also revise their classification and obviously say how much of the game was tested (which they probably never will).
I think it was a lost opportunity of sparing us from External Launchers Hell (:D) for a better rating level. They just worsen the experience on PC adding an unnecessary step, that consoles do not have. Something like a Just Press Play seal.
Maybe the Ways To Play menu should at least have a Linux Friendly or Friends of Linux games list or not I don't know.

It seems they forgot the information about Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta based GPUs now being supported only on 580 series.

And wouldn't 590 series be the one with many new things, and wayland related optimizations etc?
