Well, yes, we all benefit. Most often than not, improvements on steamdeck directly translate everywhere else, but not always. I believe the steam client HW acceleration has been broken for nvidia gpus for a while now(?).
Don’t get me wrong, gaming on linux is better than its ever been. But i wish it would take into account linux as a whole and not just one specific piece of hardware.
Or, you know, right click on most mice will work. I wouldn’t want to game on a trackpad anyway.
For power efficiency, you get the added benefit of being able to run on battery backups for longer. This for pihole, file servers, etc. can be a lifesaver
If someone didn’t bother to use 3rd party apps, they probably wouldn’t bother to switch to a whole new platform. Also federated sites are not intuitive and lemmy is scary of you go in without understanding that.
I mean, google lemmy and you don’t get much, its not a .com but rather there’s tons of instances which would just look like fake sites. And the design of the official site doesn’t exactly scream trustworthy. Im pretty tech literate and i had to find a tutorial to join the fediverse.
Im assuming there’s a bunch of folks who just don’t care to put that effort in so they’ll just stick around until it fails to meet their low standards.
for sure a proxmox server is great, id just say don’t go for the cluster just yet. Frankly, most self hosted stuff is dockerized and thats a huge plus. And it seems you already have that sorted out (id even ask you if casa OSs fileshare and an external drive could handle the NAS aspect).
I say this not to be a killjoy, but because I have a proxmox node I both overbuilt (for small services and running off a UPS) and underbuilt (for multiple big VMs) all because bought it to, and i kid you mot, “use it for NAS, and a window VM and run other random things that I don’t know yet”. 2 years in and i still don’t know what those random things are.
So, my two cents: start cheap get a node to learn and understand where you want to go from there.
I haven’t used it in a while, maybe its better. Basically since vscode is an electron app it can run im he browser. You can even use https://vscode.dev which is the official web version. Iirc it didn’t have the same plugins, but it’s pretty much the same thing.
Its super useful when you deploy alongside containers as an easy way to change configs in shared volumes.
