And you can get a used LCD for cheap now that it has been out for a while.

And I can tell you that the screen is already more than good enough for me with really good colors.

I’m trying to avoid buying from companies on the palestinian boycott list, but I already know a Gears of War remake playable on Steam Deck is gonna be one exception.

It’s Signal and Threema leadership as they were saying it would compromise their security level and would allow Meta to gather information about their users.

That’s a risk I’d be willing to take as long as it’s opt in. For now I still kind of have Whatsapp Business as kind of read only application for some groups I can’t convince to move to another app…

My cloud provider (kDrive by Infomaniak) is « green » but I have to admit I wouldn’t know how to self host on it even if I could.

Thanks, I know about it but it’s above my technical level and self hosting means having a computer running 24/7 which I don’t want.

I think Signal they (Signal and Threema) missed an opportunity to gain users by allowing an opt-in compatibility with Whatsapp.

Yeah I’m using Whatsapp Business for groups I can’t convince to move (it allows me to have an automated message to say I won’t answer on Whatsapp), Signal for people who could move but won’t pay anything and Threema for almost everyone else including my family.

I wish Signal or Threema would allow a selected opt in interoperability with Whatsapp so that I could really ditch it.

I guess it’s consumerism and people always wanting more.

I’d be happy if the Steam Deck 2 wasn’t released until 2028 as I’ve just got my used LCD in 2025.

Other manufacturers adopting Steam OS is a great sign, but it’d be nice to still get a really polished, maybe less powerful, device from Valve.

Well good because the Steam Deck ain’t old yet.

I think in 2028, getting a Steam Deck 2 would be nice for the people who want something more powerful and fresh.

2026 would be too early for my taste.

Depending on how powerful the Steam Deck 2 is and its ease of use when docking it, it might become my only gaming system (Steam Deck and Playstation 5 for now).

Thanks for the help. Yes apparently Heroic supports achievements through something called Comet. I just haven’t tried it yet as I’m only starting to buy games on GOG.

Well I wanted to avoid adding them as non-steam games if it meant losing the achievements but apparently (according to Bjoern), it wouldn’t be the case
