If you mean Portal 64 you're misinformed at best
Rude? That's a bit much
Thanks for your explanation, that makes sense. Was just curious what your take on this is, since a lot of CEOs made some very irrational decisions in the past like the recent Unity debacle or Reddit killing the community. Sometimes asking "what if" can help understand the situation. Of course with Linux we have all the options in case something bad happens
What if Red Hat's CEO changes and the new one for some reason only wants to keep sponsoring Fedora if the direction drastically changes? The FESCo could decide that the continued sponsorship is what's most important for Fedora and now Red Hat could dictate over Fedora.
Hopefully that never happens and it doesn't seem too probable right now, but it's still a thought

How is it more out of players hands than before? If anything, it is more in players control nowadays because of custom LBP servers. Also, the games are ooold, kinda to be expected that the official servers are gone someday, especially when seeing the attacks that killed the ps3 servers some years ago
As if Debian has changed fundamentally since then...
You should definetely check out Bazzite, it's based on Fedora Atomic and has Steam on the base image. Image and Flatpak updates are applied automatically in the background, no need to wait for the update on next boot. Media codecs and necessary drivers are installed by default.
The Bazzite image also directly consists of the upstream Fedora Atomic image, just with quality of life changes added and optimized for gaming
If that is a good tradeoff for you, old/broken packages but more trusted, then that's okay. Btw, the xz backdoor was found so quickly it didn't even ship to most distros in use, except for Debian Sid and Arch I think
What does it do
