Well, Minetest also can hardly be compared to Minecraft as Minetest is only an engine or platform for voxel based games like Minecraft. What you rather have to critique is something like Mineclonia that is apparently a more active fork of the MineClone2/VoxeLibre project that try to perfectly replicate Minecraft (without using Minecraft assets that is) on Minetest. Allegedly it's pretty good now but I haven't tried so myself. As already mentioned, the community for Minetest as a whole is pretty small and that additionally split among so many different games building on that. But it's good that viable alternatives exist in case Microsoft ever considers shutting down the Java edition.
Edit: Typo
I now just use EurKey (Qwerty) with a very nice Alice (Arisu) keyboard. If that was all I was using I would probably try the eurkey variant of Colemak(-DH) at some point.
This concept is also known as Double Blind Passwords or Horcruxing.
It's also good to mention that it's an open source game and they do indeed plan to release it on Steam later.

Since a few people already mentioned it in this thread, are you playing it on Deck? It's one of the main games I play with a few buddies regularly but I always found it to be a bit cumbersome on a handheld but maybe that's because I generally dislike fps with a controller (even if using gyro).
Sadly with The Talos Principle 2 they moved their entire studio to the Unreal Engine 5 and retired their own engine in the process. Apparently they lost a few engineers working on the engine and also couldn't have kept up with modern engines without some serious investment (no pun intended). On one hand it's probably for the better as we got a really pretty game where they could focus more on the game instead of bringing the engine up to speed but it's also sad to see the entire industry converge around engines like Unreal.
A great game I haven't seen mentioned yet is The Talos Principle (1) that also has a really good native port using Croteams Serious Engine.
But isn't this exactly what the Protonmail bridge is for? I don't use Proton myself (self-hosted Mailcow) but afaik Imap doesn't support public keys/PGP the way Proton is using it, hence one needs the bridge to use normal Imap clients like Thunderbird.
It feels like 90% of his problems stem from using an nvidia card again (even on X11) and it's no secret that the desktop experience is often subpar when using their proprietary drivers. I personally never had problems after upgrading with a similar setup but an amd card.
Fourthing, my absolute favourite game.
This is arguably less about us few privileged having to create an account on a shitty platform, just like with ea and ubisoft, but more about people from 175 countries not even being able to buy the game just because Sony doesn't offer their services there even though it's a singleplayer game distributed through Steam like many of their past games.
You have to keep in mind that this is only about the kernel module (and only for Turing GPUs and newer). The userspace components stay proprietary. You are still not going to use the mesa graphics stack using an Nvidia gpu anytime soon.
I guess it's good to mention alternatives but imo Kyoo seems to be overkill for a homelab use case as its design goal appears to be to scale much better and serve a high user base and huge library. Just looking at the dependencies or compose.yml
should make this apparent.
Consequently the setup is much more complex and heavy to run compared to Jellyfin e.g.
For the rare occasion that I need Windows bare metal, I have a Windows 11 installation on a usb ssd originally installed via the Rufus Windows-To-Go option that I can just plug into the system and boot off it whenever I need it without it touching my uefi menu or partition on my internal drives. This way I can also use it on another machine if that need arises. Windows can even trim the usb drive it's running on. It pretty much works as if installed internally.
I could mention that my bare metal server runs a rather unusual setup in that I use Arch Linux on ZFS headless as a kvm hypervisor and lxc containerisation host. I maybe want to migrate it to something else like NixOS at some point since I use nix on Arch on my desktop already but since I know Arch the most of any Linux distro I just went with it and it's running rock solid for quite a few years already.
I am speaking of the content shared over torrent. Only someone has to get through that DRM so the rest can enjoy.
The irony is that most of the high quality content comes from these "old" clunky formats.
One could think they forgot about a product page and needed someone to quickly cobble together something. The truly funny thing is that they include fonts and a heavy css framework for three images that don't use any of that.
