  • Not to play the devil's advocate, but with compiled languages you can just install the language, “run” your script and it'll work, if not the language will catch undeclared variables for you, and more. With interpreted languages you need to not only install the language but also third party tools for these fairly Barovia things.

  • I like custom types and them being able to follow custom interfaces; it makes for great type safety that almost no other language can guarantee!

    What I'm saying is I'm learning Rust.

  • Valve's plan to bring SteamOS to more devices is a promising sign if you want to stop gaming on Windows
  • I'm not sure if you're reading my messages but I'm saying I'm not sure how to do Proton outside of Lutris and Steam. And that CLI outside of a launcher sounds more convenient, but gave Lutris instructions for someone running a game not from Steam.

  • Valve's plan to bring SteamOS to more devices is a promising sign if you want to stop gaming on Windows
  • For me, yes. But this is all using hands-holding Windows-like UIs, please realise that the recent-ish influx of Linux gamers understand this much, much better than terminals.

    Although, I'm not sure how to install Proton as a CLI package on Mint, for instance. apt doesn't list it, but Steam and Lutris do install it internally...

  • You're just shy from describing Bazzite

    It's got:

    • Steam pre-installed
    • trustworthy (?) Flatpak packages for just about everything, even encourages it
    • desktop environment tailored to Windows users (KDE, really)
    • auto-install and configure graphics drivers for AMD (Mesa) and Nvidia
    • configurable automatic updates and system backup (although I think you still have to click the notification for flatpak updates)
    • choice between anything for default anything during setup
    • included in Steam Deck compatibility testing (actually in not sure but they do offer Steam Deck builds)
  • Valve's plan to bring SteamOS to more devices is a promising sign if you want to stop gaming on Windows
  • ran through proton

    See, this is after where most gaming folks hop off.

    In all fairness, if you just run Lutris (pre-installed on Bazzite), log into GOG from there and install and run the game through their wizard, it also “just works”.
    That might be easier for most.
