After all this time, I might eventually just buy it as a "thank you" to valve, when the sales come.

Thank you for all of the detailed resources with appropriate links! Thank you thank you

(And I really wanted to escape notepad++, because it's not native.)

I think this is supposed to be a reply to me, so I'll respond🙃

Yep, I think you're right, I'm currently flashibg the debian installer on a usb card which I'll use to install debian on an external ssd I found. Vbox is too slow for my needs now.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I have intel cpu and amd gpu, I will edit it above.

I am using plasma kde with wayland. I will check pipewire later too probably.

Thank you for the text editor suggestions :) I have found geany as an alternative, but it has some limitations (multi-window support isnt very good), but notepad++ on bottles opens slowly, so I want to avoid it too. (I also thought about emacs and nvim, but they are kinda scary and probably not for me.)

As I said in another comment, I will probably try once more to convert to prism.

Hmm, about proton-ge on lutris, for me lutris only shows wine-ge-proton and lutris versions of wine. Should I install it manually or something?

Lastly, thanks for the guide! I hadnt found that one.

Cs1.6: is this about the paid steam version or is there a linux cracked non steam version that can use multiplayer too? I'm not asking for a link, I just want to know what results should I expect from my searches.😅

Prism: I have heard about prism and tnx for the bypass, might use it. (I've also heard that tlauncher is shady, I might try to move my files to prism.) (I dont event play mc, I think minetest is better, but I dont play that either, lol. I just dont want to erase ancient worlds.)

Thanks for the community, I had forgotten its name! :)

I will try

Edit: it seems like for cs1.6 at least there arent practiallt any configuration files :/

I think they should at least advise me to use gecko, but they emit that.

I know thats not the point of the story, but that guy kinda wasted a chance of creating an army of bugs and become a real hero. Such a shame.

On the other hand, we got a very good story full of misery:)

I think I'm bad at this

I have 4 main places I put stuff:

  • My 2018 external 4tb WD HDD (filled up at around ¾)

  • My 1tb laptop ssd

  • My 256gb phone

  • My laptop's previous 2016 1tb hdd


On my external drive I put ~all of my data; my camera files, my screenshots, my phone's app data (like expenses, call logs, contacts, sms, game data, fitness logs), documents etc.

On my laptop I have some stuff which I havent synced to my external drive for around 3 years (oops), but they probably arent the most important stuff.

On my phone I have a lot of important stuff, like around ⅔ of my total camera files (I try to keep the most important ones) and my app data.

On my old laptop's 1tb hdd I keep movies/series and personal books/notebooks I have scanned. Those data dont exist anywhere else. If they get lost, especially the scanned books, it's gonna be bad, because it both took a lot of time to scan them and I have thrown away many of the physical books.

If my external drive fails, around ¼ of the data it contains might be unrecoverable. They might not be the most important files, but still it's gonna hurt a loooot.


I'm currently in the process of reorganizing my files on my laptop and my external drive for various reasons, some of them being 1) I will clear unnecessary/duplicate/temporary/etc files (which will reduce the used space) and 2) it will help me sync my files better.

In the near future I'll probably buy 500gb lifetime on filen.io (cloud storage) to keep the most important stuff, possibly another 4tb drive to mirror my current one to this and ~hopefully I'll make a nas next year to sync everything there.

It's just to expensive for me tho🫤. Filen storage is around 100€, 4tb another 100€ (or I might buy 6tb at 150€) and the nas I want to make costs around 800€...

I want to make a nas to both store and stream stuff. Like a personal home server. I'm thinking of getting 2 12tb hdds and have one of two asynchronously mirror itself onto the other (that way one of the two will be off/disconnected ~most of the time, protecting it from wear and cyber attacks (not sure of the latter will work)).
