I upgraded my win10 steam pc to bazzite and the Linux driver for my old R9 380 graphics card actually supports a newer vulkan version than the win10 one, games are running great so far. I don't do insane gaming obviously but I think for older games it's a no brainer upgrade

The goal of 3rd party apps is to do what's best for the user so they continue to use their app

The goal of Reddit's official app is to do what's best for Reddit

It's possible to expand on the functionality but that's the fundamental misalignment on priorities regarding users

I feel like censoring the O with a circle has to be satirical

Well, organometallic molecules are famously way more dangerous to us (e.g. mercury vs dimethylmercury), so it's not really controversial to say that pumping tons of tetraethyl lead directly into the air people breathe may have been worse than whatever can leach out of lead pipes or dishware.
