Hey, I’m a 3D artist, bass player, and a bad programmer.
I’m self-hosting everything I can, and have been using Linux since Ubuntu 14.04. (Arch btw exclusively since 2019)
My first account on here was over at .ml about a year before the whole Reddit shtstorm. (@princesszelda, yoink)
Its all fun and games until a frog starts asking about your views on Ronald Reagan
Not right before the new Elden Ring DLC…
Thanks for the correction, appreciate it. Not sure it changes much though.
With Discord in browser, you lose Krisp, RPC ipc socket support (aRPC might work, no clue), and from what I remember screensharing only worked with browser tab capture.
Element will eat your RAM no matter where it’s running. You could add it as a Nextcloud app to triple your RAM usage! Woo
And you can’t run Steam games without the Steam client running. That’s how their DRM works. (Unless you use the goldberg steam emulator, which is a whole another thing to talk about)
Such is the state of Electron.
I’m slowly stopping to care about web apps, however the amount of shit Electron causes is through the roof. Discord, Element, Signal, even Steam is full of it, so you just end up having 8 different “programs” running with every single one using at least around 400MB of RAM.
Can’t wait to see something using Rust and Tauri. Graphite wink wink
The fact they even got DMs from at least one instance is crazy.
Pretty wild
Where’s the “Rent is 60% of my monthly wage, so I can’t afford a 120 euro game.”
there have been way too many times I’ve found a super niche thing on rutracker, and absolutely nowhere else
