Debian's Challenge When Its Developers Quietly Drift Away

You may recall the news last month around no one was left on Debian's data protection team and other volunteer staffing challenges with different Debian efforts in the past

Bazzite is possibly the fastest growing Linux platform and it makes sense to me. Try it if you haven't!

The Flatpak change is nebulous and could include a bunch of distros. The Debian users are potentially coming from Debian 12 skewing its number as seeming like new users to Debian 13.

Le NVIDIA RTX 50 debuttano lentamente su Steam Survey

D'altronde sarebbe risultato strano il contrario visto che si parla di schede grafiche che non si sono trovate per mesi.

Interesting stats out of the #steam survey.

Still many on Windows 10, with 16gb (how??), but most have over 1tb of HDD/SSD space.

#PC #pcgaming #steamsurvey

@beebles Actually, #AMD @gpuopen needs to get their shit together and actually care aboit #Drivers and #Firmware working well at launch.

Nobody is gonna dish out 4 digits for their unstable af shit at launch as people like @fuchsiii basically have no week gone by when this stuff doesn't have issues!

There's a reason #AMD once has a 6% market share in dedicaded #GPU's on #Linux to the point that there were more #Intel #HD4000 #iGPUs in the #SteamSurvey for #Linux than all AMD + #ATi cards!
