I could have sworn you received an oscar for your performance in the 2018 masterpiece “The Hardening”, but I guess my memory has played me.
I consider this my “Mandela-Effect” moment.

Hello Academy Award winning character actress Margot Robbie.
Have you forgotten that you were not only nominated, but also won in the past?
it takes basically no extra effort
I’d assume one needs to verify the email by clicking a link, so to spam user1@domain.tld, user2@domain.tld would mean you need access to those inboxes. That means you need to go through the effort to actually create those emailadresses on whatever freemail service you chose, or you need to host the emailserver yourself and have all mails run into a catchall inbox.
Hosting your own emailserver is definately not “basically no extra effort”, even for a lot of tech-savvy people, paying for a hosted email service using your own domain is easier, but also seems like not a good investment just to spam a petition website.
The foo+bar@gmail.com functionality, however, is pretty well known tool - even by non-tech savvy people. Even some people I know that I consider basically tech-illiterate have known this for years, they have told me when they found out about it and asked me if I was aware of this functionality.
The first one I mentioned requires preparation, setting up email accounts or an email server, the second one is basically already set up for most email users and ready to go, the latter is therefore definately a lot less effort to pull off.

They have not learned anything about the dangers of trusting proprietary solutions.
Thank you, Oscar-winning actress Margot Robbie.
which instance of theseu’s ship am I?
It is unfortunate and I was looking at dozens of other open source launchers, but I was not able to find one that fits my needs and is as customizable as Nova Launcher :(
Tetris Effect has a great soundtrack
There are companies selling “gaming pillows”. Don’t fall for the gamer tax, though, IKEA will sell you a breastfeeding pillow called LEN for a fraction of the price, which is essentially the same thing.
1 - currently playing 2 - favorites (contains games that I often replay, even if I finished them) 3 - next up 4 - finished (games that I finished, I.e. i saw the credits of) 5 - completed (games that I finished and have 100% achievements on) 6 - abandoned (tried the game, didnt click with it, unlikely to be picked up in the future)
I bet that number usually only goes up
this comic uses a log scale (I extrapolate this from the only two data points given).
That’s one possible workaround, but that will, obviously, break stuff like cloud saving and achievement progress. So, not ideal, but probably viable for some situations.
Family Sharing enables you to play games from other family members’ libraries, even if they are online playing another game
That’s a great first step, but I would also like to be able to play another game from my own library on another device (e.g. steam deck and pc) at the same time
This looks like a reduction in base price, as the steam store pages do not mention any discount percentage.
price should be permanent.
Dont play shitty games whose devs(or rather the companys behind) purposefully fuck up to not let it run on Linux
I don’t. Most games I play are single player indie titles that run perfectly fine on the steam deck. I’m merely pointing out that people also like to play multiplayer games, and particularly in the competitive games, anti cheat software is often used to thwart cheaters and unfortunately that anti cheat software is often incompatible with linux/proton, either by lack of consideration or on purpose.
you should be mad at them not searching for the fault at valve or Linux.
At no point did I blame valve or linux for these issues, feel free to point out where I did that. I was clearly blaming the game developers that implement such “features” to the detriment of linux users.
All I was saying that your “solution” to “just install linux” is, unfortunately, not something that universally works for everyone.
Look, Linux is great and all, and with the ammount of effort VALVE puts into proton, gaming does work very well with it. But unfortunately, particularly when it comes to multiplayer games, Linux/Proton can often not be a viable alternative to Windows. A lot of game developers are working against proton compatibility by using anti cheat software that either doesn’t support proton or actively detects and prevents using proton.
what if, both times, they were wrong at that particular point in time?
sounds like an idea for a “what if” scenario. I know just the author to pitch this to…
