Quoting: GuestI *think* edge uses video Hardware acceleration given the CPU/GPU usage, I'll compare with chrome but wouldn't be too excited about it as in my experience, google has kept breaking it every other update, eventually couldn't bother anymore and switched to FF for the better in every single way.I tested and saw little to no difference between Edge and Chrome.
Unfortunately it's not that simple to verify on AMD, while it's super easy on Intel iGPUs (intel-gpu-top)

Quoting: heidi.wengerSo doesn't work on Firefox huh. No, then.I've yet to see any cloud game service of any kind support Firefox. Don't entirely know why.

Quoting: Arten- Steamdeck CAD files are under "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License". This is clearly commercial usage, so they needed communication with Valve for get permission and Valve maybe came with some strings attached (material quality,...).You raise a good point, hopefully JSAUX are smart enough to know this before putting the work in...

Quoting: HohlraumMyself and and a few other users informed the dev that the demo doesn't work on steam deck for us. It launches but when you go into any menu item from the home the screen goes black. I'll have to try it out again tonight.This is mentioned in the article. It seems specific to docking. Worked fine in handheld mode.

Quoting: LamdarerIt's also interesting to see that german continues to increase its Linux share, currently at 3.18% with Russian only at 1.96%.I will look to add more but it's very time consuming, especially as I need the data from each month and some are missing in the wayback machine.
@Liam might be time to include it in the Steam Tracker, since it continues to outperform Russian, Spanish and Simplified Chinese on Linux.

Quoting: DragosakLiam, where did you get the info that it'll natively support Linux? I played and enjoyed the original, but was on the fence on backing the kickstarter and so I did what I usually do in that case: Ctrl + F "Linux" - and it did come up empty and still does.Their press info.
With Linux Support, I'm backing it for sure.

Quoting: tgurrIt always really amazes me to see games like Victoria in such lists as I personally can't image how you can play such a an input and text-heavy game on a rather small screen. Games like Persona 4|5 on the other hand are a perfect fit from the start. It would be really great if we'd have some additional details from each game about how many users use an external connected screen and their playtimes on each in the form of native deck screen vs. external screen connected.Well, I imagine plenty of people are playing some like that Docked. It's still on the Steam Deck, but you're not limited to the small screen :)

Quoting: psyminAlso, if I filter out the Meta tag will I be missing much gaming news?The Meta tag is generally for anything and everything not to do with a specific game, so probably.
