  • Same here. I keep shaking my head in disbelief when I read all this "you need this custom niche distro if you want nvidia without problems" posts, and then look at my totally uncustomized Debian Stable PC, on which I've been playing modern games for many years now. :)

    Really, the only trouble I've had was not Nvidia related at all - in the very beginning when Steam Linux client was released, Debian had too old glibc, and I had to resort to LD_LIBRARY_PATH/LD_PRELOAD tricks with glibc snatched from an Ubuntu package. But next Debian release fixed even that, and it's been smooth sailing ever since.

  • Yep, Mastodon takes some effort to get going. You need to find people who are interesting for you yourself, in order to seed your feed with interesting stuff. And it goes much smoother if you also interact yourself, which is where many lurkers, used to Twitter and its algorithm feeding them content, hit a wall. It's just a completely different world in there.
