I switched to vaultwarden back when it was bitwarden_rs due to the crazy overdone bitwarden docker setup… and then started using some of the licensed features. I have a home organization that I use to share passwords with my family. So now I can’t switch back to bitwarden official (even lite) unless they provide me a way to handle that.

I’m not opposed to paying them, but I am opposed to subscriptions for access to something I’m hosting on my own server. So a subscription license isn’t happening. I don’t see a reason to leave vaultwarden at this point

If IDEs from Flathub and CLI tools from Homebrew serve your needs, no further action is required. If deeper system integration is needed for VSCode (ie. devcontainers), Docker (ie. Podman is not sufficient), etc - then see below specialized images.

There is a whole Bazzite for Devs page that mentions Bazzite-DX for development to handle some things like devcontainers: https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite-dx

Their main website also says:

Running a game, a development environment, a container for your Jellyfin server, or a utility only available on the Arch User Repository? You can rest assured it works here. Bazzite is developed on Bazzite.

At the end of the day, its an immutable fedora distro. Which may serve your needs. or may not. And bazzite’s primary focus is on gaming. It will most likely work (given a few criteria), but it may not given that is not their primary focus.

pre-ryzen AMD CPUs were always a bit on the budget side even when they were new. They were a bit more power efficient and cheaper, but never were amazing performance. So yeah, a 15 year old CPU is often rough, but a 15 year old low-mid end CPU is going to be even worse off.

Ive not had issues with Counterstrike 2 on linux, aside from wanting to play FaceIt or ranked matches that have stricter third party anticheat. And that’s just the anticheat being the problem.

I would venture a guess that linux is not “the problem” here and it’s more likely just aging hardware meeting increasing game demands.

The only time in recent years I’ve had specifically a problem with linux gaming performance (not related to anticheat), was playing VR on a pre-GCN AMD GPU which didn’t support async reprojection properly which caused quite a bit of stuttering.

Komodo Steam Deck Store rebranded to Komodo Station today. Which to me indicates that Valve’s distributor in Asia is already ready to begin selling more types of hardware. So that’s at least a positive sign.

My understanding is that FEX + Proton is the plan and just double up on the translations as appropriate.

Valve has supposedly just been heavily investing in fex.

Steam deck highlights that Windows -> SteamOS translation is good enough.

I’ve use my Index on Bazzite successfully with no issues, so I’m confident in SteamOS VR capabilities.

ARM-based is the only wildcard, but if fex works, then that’s not an issue either.

Then just onboard compute performance is the only factor. But like you said, even if this winds up only being a “stream everything, its a wireless index,” then I’m already excited.

There is an optional accessory for knuckle straps for these, mentioned in some of the 3rd party reviews.

Which somewhat implies the ability for custom knuckle straps and other accessories as well since they are detachable with mount points.
