It is indeed quite annoying the clickbait tendency of Phoronix title articles... not to mention the absolutely unjustified "Capitalization Of Every Word In His News Titles". People don't seem to understand that this stupid habit just creates confusion when reading it!

Anyway, I agree with @rkfg's comment that according to Netmarketshare's update, Linux has reached an "all time high" market share... I check every month their updates and I take this increase as very likely due to last months WannaCry and Petya's attacks to the Windows ecosystem. I think it's realistic to think that some Windows users and/or institutions would dip their toes in Linux over the past few weeks to see if they do the switch... Maybe some of them actually did.

As far as I know, Flatpak is more distribution agnostic than Snappy, Snappy has some Ubuntu-ish stuff that some people (developers) are not very comfortable with when packaging for other distros... At least that's what I've read.

Fantastic article! This is exactly what I wanted, a list of recommended games for itch.io... Please, keep these ones coming from time to time.

It might be a "gaming" unrelated question, but... Does anyone of you know how to activate OpenCL under Linux for an AMD Radeon R9 390?... I tried a couple months ago without luck (Although I don't consider myself an expert), I'm waiting for better features support in their drivers, but it seems that it's still not possible, please, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks.

When I saw this one a couple months ago, it got my attention. Great to see it on Linux, added to my wishlist!

I think I'm the only one who thinks this game sucks... because it got ruined by the recurrent decision of studios to assume gamers are stupid... Every 10 steps there's an on-screen explanation of how to jump, climb, and pretty much solve every freaking minor "puzzle" you face in the game.

At least that's what I've seen in ALL the playthroughs I've watched in Youtube. I still don't know if you can turn ALL of the on-screen tips off in the settings. If that's the case, I'm very much willing to purchase it and have an enjoyable experience, otherwise, I'm not very interested in this guided-tutorial-of-a-game.
