Discussions and news about gaming on the GNU/Linux family of operating systems (including the Steam Deck). Potentially a $HOME away from home for disgruntled /r/linux_gaming denizens of the redditarian demesne.

No memes/shitposts/low-effort posts, please.
That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.
For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

Deleted my reddit account only to find my comments were still there. So I'm guessing Discord messages will still be there - I wonder what happens to servers with no admin.
They just stay up, but nobody has access to the controls anymore, the admin account shows as "Deleted User". I know this, because the server my late friend hosted, is still up, even though their account got nuked couple years back.
I don't want to leave "my" server in an unalterable state but at the same time I don't want to encourage Discord use though my action (assuming I ever log in again, need to say how to contact me or say bye).
