To my knowledge, besides the newest updates not necessarily being as stable, but also, other softwares that interact with it would need time to adapt themselves to be sure they’re as compatible as they were before. In a situation of constant updates, other software would always be on a situation of catching up, whereas updates that take a bit longer to land allow “for the dust to set down”.
About gaming, from my personal experience, it’s overall pretty straight forward. When issues happen, you just got to have patience to read through logs and search up on Google or similar any suspicious parts of the log. Worst part is usually DRM/anticheat, but from what I can gather, usually pretty isolated cases are problematic due to compatibility, usually requiring the devs to go out of their ways to make the DRM incompatible.
As for the distros question, perhaps Linux Mint? It trades off bleeding edge updates for the sake of stability. Just avoid the Debian-based variant of Mint for now as it’s still in beta.
Both tools can be used from the terminal like most Linux programs, which should also give you better control during troubleshooting and also in the rarer cases of having to set up/run some more temperamental games. There are also graphical programs that handle Wine/Proton in a more friendly way, such as Heroic Launcher, Lutris and, specifically for Proton, Steam itself.
If, by 100%, it includes 100% of the achievements/trophies, I can only remember Mary Skelter Nightmares¹, Odin Sphere Leifthrasir and Starbound as games I still enjoy after doing 100%.
¹og version; dunno if the updated version bundled with Mary Skelter 2 has trophies (didn’t stop me from finishing it on the Switch, though e.e")
The issue could be at least mitigated if they allowed people to set their own servers independent of World of Warcraft’s own servers. =/
There are cases where AppImages aren’t viable indeed, like with programs that require ring 0 access. But limitations exist for all formats, so perhaps another good alternative is having multiple versions of a given program, like downloading the equivalent deb package through apt while also keeping the appimage version. It would bloat the storage for a potential automated configuration, but it should help with ensuring compatibility.
One thing I like to have with me is the AppImage version of programs when possible, since they usually work out of the box. Also helps ensuring I don’t depend on the availability of whatever package manager the system uses.
Never saw it before, but going by its description now, it’s the “GNU version of the Firefox browser”, so I would presume you can import everything you could between two Firefox installations, like whole profiles and favorites back up file.
Besides being a fresh account with no previous activity, the post looks like one of those old scam/phishing emails, or more modern, an AI text. And besides, not posting the software on a platform more common for the gaming community rises suspicions further.
Oh? It’s a site software update? Interesting! =O
If you don’t mind, I have a suggestion that could help with avoiding running out of stuff to check.
To see the same posts over and over is pretty annoying, me thinks. So while I don’t use much lemmy world, when I do, in the lack of a native function, I hide posts through ublock origin.
For example, the link of the OP over at your instance is:
lemmy.world/post/18355071
So I pick the number at the end of the link and add to a custom filter in ubo:
lemmy.world##a[href="/post/18355071"]:upward(div[class="post-listing mt-2"])
And yes, needs to be done to each post you want to hide. It can be a bit slow, but not as bad as seeing the same posts over and over again, me thinks.
And as a last note, if you want a native post hide feature, places like where I’m talking from now and lemmy.ca have it.
I prefer psychological horror over jumpscares by a long shot, so my recommendations are a bit slower than what people may recommend, but if it strikes your and your wife’s fancy, here are them:
Dreaming Sarah, Wishing Sarah, Tanglewood, Parasite Eve, Wake Up (by Philosophic Games), UNLOVED, The Corruption Within.
