Hi everyone,
Just decided to give this whole mastodon a chance. I come from the land which everyone seems to forget, Belgium. My hobbies include playing mahjong -despite not being very good at it-, coding more specifically anything to do with p2p software and networking and recently dipping my toes in freebsd. Excited to meet you all! Hope to find some more nerdy people, learn a ton and maybe play some matches!
@cappuccino has come long way as gaming platform since I switched. With Proton these days the compatibility is along the lines that incompatibilities are rare.
Unless you play multiplayer with games that have anticheat. Then it's really good idea to check the compatibility before buying and even then it's possible that the game stops working after an update.
@cappuccino it uses Wine underneath. You don't even need to know that though. If you start a game from Steam it most likely works without any tinkering.
In some cases the game might default to unmaintained native Linux port or the default Proton version is just not compatible. In those cases you can force certain Proton version.
Long time Steam users might need to change the default Proton version when a major release comes out. But maybe Valve will automate that too at some point.
👋 Welcome, I'm glad you're here.
I know you'll find community in the fediverse!
For p2p maybe you'll like to meet @p2panda ? Or is https://sciop.net/ interesting to you, which was built by fedizens! 🌞🐼
@la_rosa @p2panda thanks so much for the awesome suggestions. I absolutely adore this kind of content. Instant follow.
I'll have to go through SciOp site in more details, quite new to the concept of the fediverse and ActivityPub in general. So the mechanics of integrating trackers into it is still a bit unclear to me. Have some reading up to do this weekend for sure!
