Heart of the Machine from Arcen Games dropping Native Linux for Proton

The whole thing is pretty sad honestly.
It reminds me the whole "proton is bad for linux gaming" argument.
As proton gets better and better, we see more and more games dropping their linux build in favor of a proton-compatible windows build (either silently not supporting it well or explicitly like here).
All of this happens while linux share is growing.
It would be fine if it didn't make us very dependent on Valve's strategy to support proton.

Fedora considering adding in 'privacy-preserving' telemetry

I must say I was quite baffled by the proponent's opinion that's basically "We want quality data, opt-in is useless data so if it's not opt-out, I don't want it".

I'm curious if the linux gog client Minigalaxy will use this too.
It seems like they know about Comet already https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy/issues/361 [External Link]
I hope they can start working on integrating it once it's more stable.
