Lemmy seems a lot less toxic than Reddit. Every now and then I see comments here of people that are assholes, but its not the norm. Whenever I would check the comment feeds in Reddit, so many of them devolve into petty bickering. It seemed like a quarter of the user base set out that day to either be pissed off, or to piss someone else off.

I’m in the same boat as you. I tried running Bazzite a while back. Most of my Linux experience has been with Pop!_OS, and gaming didn’t seem easier than what I was used so, because Pop is already ridiculously easy to run. I’d love to know what I’m missing.

You’re not wrong, but like the duress pin, it would be a nice feature to have. Not everyone would have to set a duress fingerprint, just the people who find value in it.

Cool feature, I wonder if a duress fingerprint will be introduced in the future?

The upcoming Cosmic desktop by Pop!_OS has the exact feature you’re describing.

Pop is great for gaming, especially for Nvidia cards.

I doubt many people will be willing to de-bloat their WIndows install, because there is a lot of overlap between the type of person that would be willing to go through all the hurdles of de-bloating, and the type of person that is already on Linux.

My wife adamantly refused to get a Steam Deck for herself, saying that she would never give up her Switch.

Cut to one year out from buying one for her, and the Switch has been in a bin almost the entire time.

I start with Subscribed/Active to get my fix for the content I want to see, and then Subscribed/New to contribute comments that aren’t parroting what others have already said.

This looks amazing!! I’ve been too timid to mod mine, but this might convince me…

Federated communities have been a challenge to me, because I’ve usually been a passive consumer, never really contributing.

I am trying to comment much more and hopefully post, because I want to help contribute the type of content that I want to see!
