Yes I have setup recurring donations for some projects that really do ease up and save me so much time, although I don't think that this should be the way to keep OSS projects alive at the end of day.

If we let it companies will outsource this responsibility to us, even when often in the current economy they are the biggest profiteers from OSS and adjacent projects.

I donate to neovim and endeavour os, I would also donate to awesome / whatever tiling manager I currently use as it just saves me so much time (and literal pain in my case by reducing the use of the mouse).

These people are doing great job in maintaining systems that are easy to use, fast and very customizable, making actually using my computer enjoyable as opposed to the slow, non accessible, bloated UIs from other OSs

As someone that has also spent an unnecessary amount of time doing things like setting up developer envs, ricing and encryption on the steam deck I appreciate this post ๐Ÿ‘

This type of libraries are exactly what makes neovim thrive as a daily driver, it's so easy to customise and manage your own workflows

I agreee with you on the side of the concept, but the way it is organised and the potential values seem to make no intuitive sense (if they make any)

I play StarCraft II regularly, have played Diablo IV and just started WarCraft 3 recently, all without any issues. All you need is proton or install steam and add a non-steam game.

Iam curious what exactly you're doing. Are you setting up encrypted machines and sending PGP emails to each other?

Do you have a source for this article? I've found that this has happened on my company and I am curious about the phenomenon

Man I was going to agree with you until you brought up that you can be healthy eating McDonalds as long as you can control the portions. Eating hyper processed food WILL lead to worse health outcomes, just filter out industry sponsored studies and look at the results.

Do you have any interest in relocating outside India? You seem to have a good domain of English and softskills on top of some Linux. I wouldn't mind taking a look at the personal projects you mention

Also adding to other people, they "poached" games from other platforms.

eg they wanted Rocket League, which I have on Steam and am happy to continue using there, to be completely removed from my account and available through the epic launcher some 3(?) years after I first bought it. Eventually they backpedaled, only due to community backlash, people that owned it on steam can still play it there.

If you're serious about not knowing about all this stuff take a look at https://steamcommunity.com/groups/EpicGamesSucks/discussions/0/1796278072844560561/ Obviously Steam biased, but a very good index

You're welcome. You should also try without the app by setting it to something like dns.adguard-dns.com if the app is only a trial!

Just fyi if you want to block ads on your phone you can go to your WIFI settings and set DNS to the AdGuard website or some similar service. Google is your friend for step by step guides
