I think OP is referring to Fog Panther, I just saw this yesterday in Flathub: https://flathub.org/en-GB/apps/com.fogpanther.FogPanther. It definitely appears to be some jackass selling a blatant GIMP clone.

Saruman was not supposed to be a role model.

Do people expect the price to go down?

Actually yeah that would be great. After all, Netflix is raking in more profit than ever (this chart represents earnings after expenses are removed):

That’s billions. Billions of dollars every year that’s just… extra. Where the fuck are they wasting all this money that requires them to raise prices instead of lowering them?

I mean, we all know it goes to funding the Epstein class and making the world a worse place for everyone else, but it should go towards making their service better and cheaper.

Let’s stop normalizing the predatory nature of capitalism, and instead be surprised when people don’t expect better.

That’s not a fair statement to make. As published in their FAQ, developer time is not what’s lacking in the effort to support more devices:

For most [unsupported] devices, the hardware and firmware will prevent providing a reasonably secure device, regardless of the work put into device support.

My 2013 Dell XPS laptop is still running beautifully with Fedora 43 too! Honestly, it’s amazing how much life a piece of old hardware can have with Linux running on it.

Sorry that Cyberpunk didn’t work for you, that’s understandably frustrating. I hope you get what you want from your return to Windows.

If you ever decide to try Linux again, you might benefit from asking people for assistance before you get so frustrated. I’ve personally played Cyberpunk for hundreds of hours on Linux, so I know it certainly does work. There’s probably something going on with that specific repack you’re using that makes it weird to get running.

That looks like Ubuntu, which I believe uses a modified version of Nautilus for the file manager. Hitting CTRL-L (for “location”) should give you a path bar to type into.

Not strictly “out of the box” since the setting isn’t enabled by default, but any distro with a recent version of GNOME installed will have RDP available. It’s ready to be toggled on in settings under System > Remote Desktop > Desktop Sharing:

Unfortunately, RDP always seems to be fiddly for me, it does that disconnect immediately after connecting that you described. Sometimes if I just keep hitting connect over and over, eventually it’ll get confused and stop disconnecting so that I can actually use the desktop for a while. YMMV.

Most stuff that runs on Windows is uninteresting because there are superior free alternatives on Linux, but in the cases where I needed it, Bottles is great.

I’m not sure what people are referring to in other comments when they say Bottles has “jank”, but for me it works very nicely for the few apps I occasionally need to use it for: Daz3D (just worked), jDownloader (just worked), and Affinity (followed this guide and it worked easily).

I agree with not using the term “sideloading”, but let’s not adopt right wing shame tactics by coining a portmanteau that conflates people’s harmless sexual kinks (e.g., cuckolding) with negativity. It’s sufficient to just avoid app stores, there is no need for childish shorthand.

Also, I don’t see how you are providing anything here resembling a “guide”. You’re stating an opinion, which is fine, but that’s not a guide.

If you’re like me, and you have no idea what Openclaw is, and noticed that the project linked doesn’t explain it either: Openclaw is apparently some sort of AI bot that performs tasks on your personal data without your input.

I don’t understand the concern, domain names are cheap and easy to get, they can just keep using new ones. Why does it matter if they lose the ones they have?

Piratebay used to do the domain dance all the time back in the day (and maybe still do).

I don’t want to discourage the effort you put into trying to build something useful, so I’m trying to say this nicely… you’d probably get more interest if you built a moderation tool that doesn’t involve AI.

Lemmy is probably an unlikely crowd to be looking to for positive reception of an AI nanny bot. Even less so on .ml, and even less so on an open source community.
