opnsense sounds like what I was looking for (if I understand correctly)

I had no idea there was a way to go around the ipv6 restrictions

and the linux desktop

probably you’re right, I haven’t yet done the research to understand how to use them properly or know the difference (iirc proton is wine modified by valve but that’s about as much as I know), I haven’t had time to look closely into it

I’m not sure if it’s better to play native linux games than to use wine

some games I tried, the native linux version had broken lighting, while the wine version worked fine

also with wine all your saves are in the game folder, and it doesn’t make a mess by saving files wherever the developer thought would do the job

also it’s easier to find the latest version for windows than it is for linux

I’m thinking I’ll finally join the osu! crowd

I think only the storage of a profile’s information is decentralized, not everything else

relevant xkcd

is this what you’re referring to?

I have no idea why you are getting downvoted

shooting the messenger isn’t that useful

maybe you can try to change the runner of the game, you could try with proton-ge instead of wine-ge, or some other thing

I do that on Lutris in case the game doesn’t work, or it is slower than it should be, or it has problems with input or output

upto now every game I wanted to install worked with at least one of the options

edit: also other easy things you might try can be the windows version and the bit architecture

if some of these options don’t work quickly, you can check on wine’s website or proton’s website, where you can find reccomended configurations for games and software

I like the stremio app with the torrentio extension, it’s really easy to use, and with your stremio account you can keep track of the movies and series you watch

the issue is that without a debrid provider, which you have to pay for, many series and movies aren’t seeded, so more obscure media is less likely to work

so google wants to collect more data
