  • Having to adapt to shells is exactly why I don't like to use radical shells like fish or nushell. I don't want to feel too comfortable with them, because if I do, I would probably regret it when I'm stuck in situations that doesn't have the correct shell. SSH into a new server or Raspberry Pi that has DNS issue, for example, which actually happened to me more than once. The DNS is already troublesome, and I don't want shell unfamiliarity to become another headache

  • I have used both and can confirm they worked great. There is also REFramework for recent Capcom games like Devil May Cry 5, Resident Evil entries and Monster Hunter Rise. Steam workshop compatible games like Rust and Don't Starve Together also work great. My observation is it depends on if the mod framework the community chooses is compatible, or if the mod/framework author care enough for Linux support.

  • That's disappointing. From Capcon's even earlier track record such as DMC5, RE 2/3/4/8 and MHR, I expected great builtin compatibility of their RE engine with Linux and Steam Deck. But their latest titles DD2 and SF6 proved otherwise, so I guess it's just optimization problem for specific game cases

  • Extensions are not equivalent to native customization, and both have pros and cons. On one hand, extensions provide a variety of features that can be added specific to people's likings, but on the other hand, there are chances of incompatibility (in gnome shells for example) and delayed maintenance from developers (which results in having to wait for them to finish the work when dependency updates)

  • It is good that such app works for you, but from what I've seen AndFTP is only available in Google Play store, and with bundled ad in the free version and paid otherwise. In comparison, LocalSend is none of that, and it is available on FDriod as well. LocalSend is also FOSS from protocol to the app through and through, and although SSH technology itself is secure, the security of the client depends. These are all the reasons to answer your question of "I need something more than scp". I use SSHFS myself too in the case of file backup, but also LocalSend for different scenarios such as "I need this video to be sent to my computer ASAP". If you are not convinced, feel free to overlook the project, that doesn't mean the app has zero use case

  • As a regular i3 user, I was very satisfied on how tiling was implemented into the Pop shell of Gnome. After a few keybind change here and there it almost felt like home maneuvering the windows and workspaces. One minor complain is glitches happen when external monitor is connected/disconnected on the fly (laptop usecase), in which case windows are disoriented and thrown around at random unexpected places instead of staying at where they were. I'm blaming Gnome on that one however, since I'm assuming it is related on how Gnome handle multiple screens and Pop shell act on top of it, so I'm expecting it to be fixed in Cosmic DE

  • I used Proton Mail since college student, it was great and upgraded to Unlimited tier after getting a job. Thier VPN was okay for occasional usage. However, coming from a personal perspective, over the time I became not a fan of them branching out to other services such as Proton Pass, when they still have work to do for their existing ones (eg. split tunneling on Linux VPN client, calendar sync on Bridge, to name a few), so I downgraded to only Mail Plus. I also switched to Mullvad VPN and I like the experience better than Proton VPN. As of now, I think Proton is still a great service for email and calendar, but I'm not sure about other ones
