Wow, finally a new release of VCMI, nearly 6 years after the last one!
Waiting for the AUR package update to try it out.

Sorry to be pessimistic, but now I'm starting to "don't believe a word until you have it".
Plus the demo is, for now, Windows only.
Don't disappoint us Nick!

No more DLC for Oxygen Not Included, devs decide to do free updates instead

Quoting: waltercoolThis is the first single-player game Klei decided to not offer a DRM-free version.

This is the case for Griftlands and Mark of the Ninja: Remastered too, unless a Windows version is enough for you... but these two games don't have a Linux version DRM-Free.

Quoting: robvvI noticed the Amazon Games integration a few days ago and was very pleased. I have a lot of freebies in my Prime account and previously had to jump through hoops to install them. Now I just need to decide if anything in my account is actually worth playing...

They give a ton of amazing indies, games that probably will never receive attention on Steam.

I dunno if you like rhythmical games, but look if you have this on your account:

Survival city-building game Synergy certainly looks different

Sable (graphics) + Pharaoh/Zeus/Caesar (city-builder) + Banished (weather, seasons...) + Stronghold (happiness of its inhabitants), at least I think of them.
Sounds great, hope for a GOG release!

YouTube thought my Steam Deck video was 'harmful and dangerous'

Quoting: CyrilSorry guys, but the only real good alternative out there is Peertube.
Biggest downside is that there is not really a PeerTube Player for Desktop not to mention one which bundles YT and PeerTube. Thats why I mostly watch YT with FreeTube on Desktop maybe I should try setting up NewPipe for Linux.
PS: There is TubeFeeder but it doesnt really work and is mainly designed for Linux Phones.

Hmm, what do you mean by "PeerTube Player for Desktop"? NewPipe/Freetube exist only for Youtube because the site is "shit" for many reasons.
There is no need for this kind of player on Desktop for Peertube seriously... For Android maybe, but you could use anything you want, Peertube is not Youtube, it doesn't restrict you...
Plus, I think the use of "apps" for everything is just a bad practice from the mobile world...
