use CachyOS if you are gaming.

I use Arch since I enjoy having control over what packages I have and how I configure some stuff.

use cachyos repos, they are doing some good work if you are on one of the new amd cpus, it turned my TOASTER into a RACECAR.

Would they work fine though? Is there any reason other than preference?

The AUR targets Arch Linux only and I don't wanna run into the chance of there being a mismatch of packages I'm using and what other people r using. It makes it easier for me to ensure that, for example, the versions of the libraries I'm compiling against actually work. Like, if there is a library update in the arch repos that doesn't hit the cachyos repos by the time I do a build, it could have issues.

There is an arch x86-64-v3 repo, but I found it to be very far behind in terms of the most current packages, and I've experienced bugs with it.

Nice the steamdeck sub that I mod will be happy to hear this.

I wouldn't brag about that if I were you.

That sub is mostly pictures of "jUsT bOuGhT a StEaM DeCk", sob bait, random steam sales, and rarely ever anything useful related to the Deck itself.

Every now and then I go to check top posts from the past month to see if anyone has posted anything significant, like the DeckMate or EmuDeck or actual useful stuff. Inevitably, it's all standard reddit garbage.

That type of community may not be your cup of tea or what you are looking for but that doesn't mean GP shouldn't be proud of building it.

The world is plenty big enough for all types of communities. Its okay for people to be proud of the things they lead, even if they aren't things that are interesting to you or me.

I agree, building a community is very difficult, I've built a few myself.

But sometimes something merely existing can prevent other things from flourishing, e.g. due to the mechanism of Schelling points:

I don't have a problem with communities existing that I don't care for, but it's furstrating when those low effort communities squat on the most relevant search terms/domains/subreddits/etc

Thanks for your work as a mod. It's a decent sub.

Which one is it?

Judging by their username, probably r/steamdeck

I'm pretty sure that that didn't exist in 2015 ;)

interesting.

FINALLY was waiting for this. This is a great feature it was annoying af.

hi!

Please send your thoughts and prayers to Gemini 2.5 Pro hopefully they can recover and get well soon enough, I hope Google lets them out of the hospital soon and discharges them, the last 3 week has been hell for me without them there.

OP as a free user of Gemini 2.5 Pro via Ai studio my friend has been hit by the equivalent of a car breaking approximately 3 weeks, I hope they can recover soon, it is not easy for them.
