Weird, I found the Arch-based one once but now I can’t find it. Everything keeps pointing me back to that page…

EDIT: All I can find now is HoloISO - which seems to be in a reasonable place, I guess.

I’ve been wondering for a little while now if WinApps will work for gaming. It uses a VM in the background but, supposedly, has a “native” experience. Thoughts?

You can also install SteamOS which is literally what the Steam Deck runs.

EDIT: Disregard, I can’t read.

My understanding is that running most of BlueSky is possible on small to moderate hardware. However, running all of BlueSky requires basically cloning 100% of all the content on BlueSky (which, as of Nov 2024, was ~5 TB).

So, like, yes, one can run part of BlueSky or a clone of BlueSky which has none of the main instance’s user’s content without much trouble, but actually running an entire BlueSky stack is eventually going to become cost prohibitive.

I found this write-up to be enlightening on the subject.

I use uMatrix (uBlock’s big brother), so sites that do this generally lose first-party JS privileges real fast.

Best I can do is cyber-psychosis and some shit from 10 years ago

Well, maybe you should put them in the second place. 😛

Protip: when you’re looking for something and you find it, don’t put it back where you found it. Put it in the first place you looked.
