elementary OS 7 'Horus' is out now with major AppCenter upgrades

I'm just going by what they officially list as their title on the elementary OS website, which notes Founder. Cassidy is nothing to do with it any more. They originally founded it together, but they're not involved now. I don't see a point to keep calling them a co-founder in that way when specifically talking about the organisation in the here and now and I don't see it as helpful to being so pedantic about it.

Here we go again. :-) You should put this in your "about the author" box, it'd save you having to type this every time you write about a VN. You know they're not synonymous with sex and nudity, right?
I don't say it every time I write about a Visual Novel? And yes, I am of course well aware of that.

You know what a co-founder is right? They did it together.

Don't confuse the Founders, with who is employed by the organisation. They were co-founders, both had jobs elsewhere before.

Distrowatch is still a thing? Wow. I've never known anyone to seriously pay attention to it apart from people who wrongly thought their ranking meant something...

Big new Stable Update for Steam Deck and Desktop Steam

Quoting: Mohandevir"The new BigPicture mode has been made the default one"

Meaning it's now the Steam Deck UI for desktop users too?
Yes. So when you click Big Picture Mode, even on Desktop, it uses the UI from Steam Deck now too. Sadly, for NVIDIA users on Linux, it's quite poor right now due to low performance.

Did the tag thing, and that's completely perfect. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! It's exactly why I made the site the way it is, so people can pick and choose what they want to see.
