Thank you Google I hope shitty moves like this drives enough people away to better browsers like Firefox. It desperately needs a bigger market share.
Was curious myself don’t like flatpaks & appimages much, but from a quick googling, they don’t seem to integrate with the desktop so you need to launch them from terminal? That is a deal breaker for me at least.
Valve basically killed the second hand market of PC Games with their Steam keys tied forever to one account. CD Keys was a thing before Steam but only for online games and if you sold the game or lended it out to a buddy the next person could play with same key. Nope too pro consumer thought Valve, made it mandatory for singleplayer games like Half-Life 2. They forced people buying Half-Life 2 to install Steam & create Steam account which at the time was not ready and basically just an early DRM to tie license forever to one account.
Many people could not even play at release, they could not prove they owned what they had bought, cause servers were overloaded so they were locked out of playing an offline singleplayer game on their own computer. Unfortunately that is custom nowadays when big games launch with contrived shitty online service crap forced down gamers throats. Valve basically pioneered that shit among many other douchey moves. They are better than scum like EA & Ubisoft especially these days but far from perfect. So no they all suck to some degree.
Yeah them removing music I listen to cause of licensing bullshit was why I quit Spotify a couple of years ago and went back to buying and pirating music again just like before. Plus I get better audio quality, have like 1 tb of mostly 24-bit Flacs on my NAS with Plex. I do also not have to keep paying more and more for the same content cause they find out they cant keep infinite growth so they squeeze the existing subs for more money instead. Fuck I hate subscriptions in general. The only thing I miss are the mixes and radio cause it made me discover so much new music.
Åh jag älskar verkligen teknik🥰. Mer AI tack!
I collect Microsoft points so Edge gives bonus every day & integrates with bing. It’s also good for reading pdfs and epubs cause it has nice tts which does not sound like a retarded robot played through a tin can like the linux native one.
Cause it’s the Red Panda browser, cuddly creatures🥰
Edge works fine on Linux at least on KDE Plasma. I use the flatpak daily. It’s also available on AUR but haven’t tried it myself. I’ve also tried the PPA on Linux Mint with no issues.
