Quoting: GuestYes, sadly an open point since years and for me a reason to use mostly Steam. But what I ideally want is an easy to use open source client to manage my game library and to start the games.That's the reason I'm not going to use Galaxy even if they'll release it for Linux, until community will develop an open alternative. Such clients should be open source.

Quoting: GuestI don't think Feral can make a decision about releasing a port DRM-free.They can, they said as much themselves. They just don't want to. But yes, there is a dedicated thread for that topic. And I agree, that for many convenience trumps freedom today.

Quoting: LeonardKInteresting, I'll take a look. Thanks!Quoting: ShmerlYeah, swapping Caps Lock and Control is easy. But placing Escape in the second from the top row and Backspace in the third from the top is already hard. Especially Backspace, since it has a different shape.The HHKBs do exactly that but are expensive.
