No flatpak? Who uses flatpak in the terminal?

Also pretty much every distro has some sort of GUI update manager.

Don't get me started on ds9. A black captain? A trans lesbian officer? A gay interspecies couple? The federation using fear from war as an excuse to become a police state? Can't believe they made my colorful space communism show woke.

I don't think steam tracks usage of non-steam games. Maybe playtime but iirc it doesn't even do that.

People are right about flatpak - it will generally keep stuff out of your actual root/home directory. But like you implied, the steam flatpak is unofficial so you may run into issues. With that said, I've used it and know many people who use it without any problems.

And depending on the game, you might be able to run it directly with steam offline, or even straight from the executable without steam open at all.

Of course this isn't airtight, but there are ways to check the permissions granted to flatpak applications. And IMO it works well enough for games. Ofc this depends on how paranoid you are and your reasons for wanting this (fear of a game being a virus, not wanting clutter in home, wanting protection from a bug that would delete data, etc.).

I think the real thing we need to do to attract windows users is have tuxkart installed by default.

I had issues with debian-based distros as well, that's why I switched to fedora. I also think the go 3 has better support in general. The cameras are still annoying but things have gotten better, with Firefox getting libcamera support.

I agree but also I saw the words "vote" and "nix" and nearly had an aneurism.
