Having a larger worldwide population to match with means matchmaking can do a better job of trying to find someone closer to your level. Playing any game with a high skill ceiling with IRL friends is what often just results in a skill gap too wide for either of us to have fun, and then who else can I even go play with?
And that's assuming anyone you know IRL even wants to play the niche games you love best.
My concern is that Proton isn't even being seen as a stepping stone, but a real replacement for native support. I've heard too comments to the effect of "We don't need native ports anymore now that Proton exists."
I recognize how much of an impact Proton has had on Linux gaming to help bridge the gaps in our library, and make the platform more attractive to potential new users.
But this is exactly why I won't ever see it as a substitute for native support, because the important thing is support. If we're not supported, anything could break at any time and we'll be out of luck.
Did he confirm the band is breaking up, or could they just be canceling the tour until this blows over?
Well considering the community appears to be completely dead, I doubt anyone's gonna care either way...

I mainly used the other site for niche microinterests, but because Fedi itself is so niche too, that means the venn diagram doesn't have enough overlap to sustain these communities. And sadly I'm not sure if it ever will.
The twist in the original Metroid was that you didn't find out Samus was a woman until the ending, I could totally see today's dumbass gamers calling that a bait-and-switch.
I get y'all want to be edgelords, but this is the most dangerous thing that has happened this century.
Donald Trump is the most dangerous thing that has happened this century. Far more people have been and will be hurt and killed because of him. I have no sympathy for anything that happens to a man with so much blood on his hands, and I don't say that to be edgy, I say that because I simply see it as a Trolley Problem.
I'm surprised this is even legal. Why do we not have a law requiring credits to properly give credit?
I'm not sure that's a fair comparison. Stewart has never served as an elected official, but he has 'seriously studied' politics his whole life. That's more relevant than Trump or Reagan.
OP seems to imply they're unfamiliar with the idea of playing games with other people at all, as if multiplayer games weren't a thing before the internet.
