Here’s an article on The Register. I haven’t read through all of this just yet, but this might give you a pretty decent picture:

Nice recommendation with Droid-ify! I completely forgot about this, installing on my phone now too

Have a look on F-Droid, there’s a whole heap of open source games on there

Interesting about the snipers comment. Does the game limit the amount of snipers per team? Or is it more like BF1 for example where everyone can be a sniper if they want?

Over the years, I don’t think there’s many DE’s or WM’s that I haven’t tried to live with on a daily driver, such as KDE, Gnome, Cinnamon, Qtile, XMonad, I3, AwesomeWM, etc etc. What I found over the years was how much I appreciated a clean, simplistic UI for an operating system.

After spending multiple years on ‘window manager only’ setups (got fed up with updating configs on major updates, and got fed up with the amount of config I had to do), I returned back to KDE mainly for the intense amount of OOTB customisation. However, what I realised after a while was that I was just setting up KDE to look and behave like Gnome.

So 2 years after last using KDE, I’m now just using Gnome all the time. I like the workflow, on laptop personally I think the gesture navigation is better than any other DE, and I love the simplistic design. Plus extensions get me what isn’t included OOTB.

Downside to Gnome is when major updates occur and extensions break as a result, other than that I can’t think of much bad about Gnome

In between ARMA and Battlefield has been HLL niche for a long time, such a shame Vietnam kind of sucks. But also hence why I’m interested in Wardogs.

If you haven’t played the original HLL, personally I think that is definitely worth a shot for an “older” combat experience

How’s the actual game itself?

I just picked up Hell Let Loose: Vietnam and I can’t remember the last time I was so disappointed in an FPS release

A password manager?

HDR is in, has been in KDE and Gnome for a while now.

Fair enough on TrackPad scroll speed.

Other than that though, what other features do you believe Gnome is missing?

And here’s the Bugzilla issue link, also found in above link:

I’ve ran vanilla Arch multiple times in the past, and each time it was for the 'fun’of building out my system, this was mainly back when I was a uni student.

These days however, I just want something that works well for my use case.
