Setting this up fixed it for me

Correct, its not that it wouldn’t be able to run, the DRM on it is just so restrictive

Yeah everything installed via the Microsoft store is encrypted and won’t run outside the little sandbox it lives in. Hopefully someday someone figures it out but it looks unlikely anytime soon

Sadly no, the PC Bedrock version is very much Windows only. Your only options are to either use the Bedrock Launcher which as you know already requires the android version, or if your goal is to play with friends to use Waterfall MC. Its a server mod that allows both Java and Bedrock players to join the same world

Check out Anytype it’s pretty much just an open source Notion, I like it a lot

It probably is using Synapse, the Beeper github links directly to the matrix ansible script which uses Synapse by default unless you change it

+1 for MusicBrainz Picard, definitely the best tagging software out there

As someone else mentioned, Terra Nil is exactly this, another good one is Eco. You do chop down trees and mine and stuff but the goal is to be environmentally sustainable. The goal is to stop a meteor from blowing up your planet but you need to sustainably get there otherwise you’ll end up polluting the planet and making stuff worse in the process. Underrated but really good

Yeah I’m really sad plex dropped podcast support, it used to work pretty well and it was nice to have everything in one spot

Yeah I was looking at a few options. A few people recommended Audiobookshelf. I tried out airsonic-advanced and it has decent podcast support but the software itself feels a bit outdated, but it works

Yeah :( I’d probably go the selfhosted route if I can find a good bit of software to use for it, or just use RSS if that happens

Man I’m glad I got grandfathered in to their lifetime license, that’s really expensive

Same thing for me, my domains were set to renew in August, but I transferred to Hover (cloudflare didn’t directly support my tld) but I set up my nameservers with Cloudflare.

Everything google touches dies, I’m very distrustful of any of their services, I should probably think of moving off gmail too haha

I love Distance. It feels very satisfying to play, with the anti gravity you can pull some fun moves driving on the walls and such, definitely worth checking out

Barotrauma is so fun. Everytime you think its going fine until it suddenly isn’t. 10/10 would drown with my friends again

I have a similar setup, Switch with CFW, RG350p for more portable retro games like GBA etc, and then the SteamDeck has just been an emulation beast. Absolutely love that thing
