You don't use proton for waydroid

KKyle Gospo You don't use proton for waydroid

brb, killing myself.

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:05 AM

So without a doubt that's part of your issue

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:05 AM

Did you follow our setup guide?

GiantDadOP•6/9/24, 1:05 AM

I think its a cool idea even if the start was just which brands have good support and the problems each brand historically has had

A weekend? I'm wondering what how you'd go about that? I wouldn't mind coding that myself if it was straight forward enough. What stack would you use?

Pez•6/9/24, 1:19 AM

yknow this isn't a bad idea

Pez•6/9/24, 1:20 AM

if you want some pointers i'd suggest a good domain name is a must. for hosting it though? https://neocities.org

Neocities

Create and surf awesome websites for free.

Pez•6/9/24, 1:21 AM

you only need static content for this, and neocities' $5 supporter plan is fucking amazing for such uses

Pez•6/9/24, 1:21 AM

i would not recommend github pages if you want to host a site that stays snappy on slow connections, etc.

Pez•6/9/24, 1:22 AM

the layout for such a thing doesn't need to be half as complex as protondb, mind you -

Pez•6/9/24, 1:22 AM

i would propose that the people submitting this sort of information would be perfectly fine with posting it to a github repo

Pez•6/9/24, 1:24 AM

read their TOS very closely if you do ever use them, they're very clear that they are not an advertising platform etc.

Pez•6/9/24, 1:25 AM

but to give you an idea of how good their hosting is for lightweight static sites we use it for https://docs.nzp.gay

bad idea to put bazzite on an SD card for my 64gb steam deck?

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 1:33 AM

Awful

TTray bad idea to put bazzite on an SD card for my 64gb steam deck?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:36 AM

yeah i would upgrade the internal drive

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:36 AM

no idea if the filesystem corruption stuff would ever get fixed at this point

TTray bad idea to put bazzite on an SD card for my 64gb steam deck?

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:36 AM

terrible

Ttryhardsoccermomswag yeah i would upgrade the internal drive

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:37 AM

let me clarify:
i would if i wanted to

i still have a unupgraded 64GB deck. i still want to see if bazzite does boot on it next year

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:37 AM

one day that shitty emmc drive will boot it

Tray•6/9/24, 1:38 AM

my only issue with the 64gb is that it gets filled up by shaders and stuff

Tray•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

and then I have no space for anything

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

I mean it’s literally impossible to put Fedora on your device

TTray my only issue with the 64gb is that it gets filled up by shaders and stuff

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

oh yeah i disabled that on mine

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

At least the internal drive of it

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

yeah its an upstream issue

TTray my only issue with the 64gb is that it gets filled up by shaders and stuff

Pez•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

just disable it

Pez•6/9/24, 1:39 AM

what does that even do besides make game take long time to start now

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 1:40 AM

games with heavy usage of tessellation benefit slightly from it but since graphics pipeline library is in the newest drivers for essentially all GPU vendors, not much like it used to
