Reddit never fails:

"Gamingonlinux and other linux specific curators are pointless now with protondb and proton itself, cannot find any reason to follow them at all"

For anyone wanting in on Bluesky I'm doing a new starter pack of game devs that support Linux to follow on it to help ya: bsky.app/starter-pack-short/FE

The article "Classic Unreal Tournament and Unreal now easier to download free thanks to OldUnreal" was updated, with a statement from Epic Games to confirm it's totally fine gamingonlinux.com/2024/11/clas

@gamingonlinux nice to see that from a company like Epic

@gamingonlinux I still have the original UT99 on my drive and I bet it still works without any patches. Unreal Engine from back then just worked on all versions of Windows without modifications, even through Win98 to Win2000 and WinXP migration which broke the most games.

@gamingonlinux Do you play Planetside 2? It works good on Linux with most distros.

@gamingonlinux What a game the original UT is / was! My first real online game, sniff.

@gamingonlinux Awesome! Would love to finally finish Unreal Gold on Linux box- never quite figured out how to get it properly patched and running again.

For people worried about their following on X / Twitter, it's really truly not worth it.

I've left behind 74K followers. I don't miss having my content on there at all, and it has clearly *not* affected traffic even in the slightest bit.

It's been a week since my last content posted from the website to X, so I have a pretty good look at traffic now, there was literally *no* drop-off, and the first few days after leaving X traffic went up 🤷

Muting this now, but in the end this was just my experience I wanted to share. You *can* make other platforms work, if you put in just a bit of effort.

X is terrible, Twitter is dead. And I hope to see more people move on from it.

@gamingonlinux I think the important part is, leave a social network in steps and tell people you will move. Leave a new place to find you instead of instantly deleting an account.
It is a statement and it might help to migrate people if they can find your new location(S)

Twitter is truly dead, X is a far-right political playground full of blue tick bots.

@ThePlant It's understandable that many people have left X, but that can create an echo chamber, no matter the viewpoint. For social platforms to truly reflect a range of perspectives, everyone needs to engage. Healthy dialogue happens when we stick around and listen to each other - a balanced conversation needs all sides.

@gamingonlinux If I understood that correctly it will add something like the Unity debugging utility. This is awesome, sometimes seeing the state of the game and beeing able to debug the code in parallel is really helpful

@gamingonlinux Looks cool but I've just noticed a worrying trend.

One of my browser plugins highlights when a game is excluded from the Family Sharing service and this is the 4th I've seen in the last day or so. It used to be the odd AAA release but now it's a bunch of smaller indie games.

As a Dad with 2 kids starting to get into regular gaming the new version of the family sharing on Steam has been wonderful but it will be seriously kneecapped if Devs are seeing it as a bad thing for them
