sounds just a tad paranoid.

the android situation is not really comparable to desktop linux.

google has a monopoly over the distribution of all apps, android has never really been independent of the playstore.

unlike desktop linux which has an established ecosystem already

they can lockdown their steamdeck & steamos but there is no point in running steamos unless it comes preinstalled.

and they cant really make the installation on other distros more "fidly", because the package manager handles installing software.

yeah going forward all games should be monetized like those simulator games.
like "Train Sim World 5" with a total of 2.500โ‚ฌ for all addons

I was interested in trying out openSUSe and tried to install it on my third drive:

on my first and second attempt the install failed with an error that the creation of the efi Boot partition failed
something along the lines of:

execution of command /usr/sbin/shim-install failed no space left on device
(i tried both manual and automatic partitioning)

i then tried to install fedora on that disk, just to see if something is wrong with the disk (or my skill) and it worked without a hinch.

after that i tried it again with tumbleweed and it seemed to install just fine.
but when i tried to boot it didn't work,
it just showed a black screen with a blinking - for about a minute before rebooting.

i gave up after that.

is there something that i might have missed during my install,
i thought that openSUSE has a great reputation.

system is a ryzen 7 with an rtx 2060,
on an ASRock mainboard with secure boot deactivated.
disk is my old 250gb samsung 840 evo

i remember something about the russians targeting them in the first few weeks.

it turned out that their own encrypted comunication channels relied on the gsm network,
and they had to fallback to unencrypted radios.

i am having trouble with ipv6 in a specific program. (sf6 steam version)
completely disabling it has resolved my issues.

but this solution just doesn't sit well with me.

is there a way to only block that one problematic program from using ipv6?

i use a different drive for my windows installation because that happened to often,
and i swear it once managed to wipe the bootloader on the linux drive.

i have no idea how it did that,
but i avoided starting windows using the grub entry since then.

I recently started playing sf6 in online mode.
Playing against other pc users seems to work just fine,
however Crossplay matches fail with the error code 50200-21018 (as far as i understand the first digits designate the http status code 502)

I talked to a steamdeck user for which crossplay worked just fine I play on silverblue using the flatpack version of steam.

At first is Suspected problems with the proton version,
and tried several diffrent versions (including GE) However this did not help.

Updating my ostree and flatpacks did also not help.

does anyone have suggestions on what might be causing these issues, or how to debug it further?

EDIT: same error occured when i tried using the steam version from the os

im almost sad that its linux that became the dominating open source kernel instead of "GNU's Not Unix! Hird of Unix-Replacing Daemons"
(hird stands for "Hurd of Interfaces Representing Depth")
