Nice, but I won't install it on my system until they make a Flatpak version [External Link].

Kernel-level anticheats are de facto rootkits anyway.

OpenRazer is great, but sadly still unusable in immutable systems because of the very custom udev rules and other system-wide changes needed.

There was a point in time when I considered Fedora to be a great middle-ground distro between rolling releases and the slower stable releases, but after the ai update, I'll never consider it for anything ever again.

Don't worry, even with all the AI stuff, Fedora will still be more mature than CachyOS with its Zenity-based GUI tools. :-)

And Fedora Workstation (Silverblue) is 90% stock upstream GNOME (that does not allow AI based contributions) anyway. (Not sure about the KDE variant though, but I suppose it will be similar.)

I am vehemently against game exclusivity but it's worrisome to see Halo go cross-platform. I'm glad it is but I worry that this is the death knell for Xbox. I don't think it'll be soon but Xbox hardware dying is not good for competition or consumers.

If Xbox dies, PlayStation will probably die too, since PlayStation has worse hardware and much more limited software.

Given the age & performance of the port ( pre proton ? ) they should probably pull it if they are no longer supporting the linux version consistently. Proton's performance now often exceeds native compared with the windows version.

No. They should fix the native port. Maybe add a Vulkan renderer if possible. Proton (Wine + DXVK) is a great thing for running Windows games on Linux (SteamOS), but it should not be a replacement solution for actual native ports.

If there already is a native port, it is always better to fix that port (if possible/feasible) instead of just nuking it and relying on the Windows version running using Proton.

Why do developers even bother with Native Linux when Proton exists and is a lot more stable ? This was a total waste of time.

Why even bother with Linux when Windows exists?

Shame on them.

This was also preceded by the original developers being acquired by a "big investor" if I remember correctly. What followed was a shift in their plans by a 180 degrees.

R.I.P. Splitgate. Another game killed by greedy publisher.
