Alyx is the only reason i ever consider getting into VR. You might be right on everything else, but I do think Alyx is what put VR on the radar for a lot of people like me and i think that's a considerable shake up.

I miss Unity :(

Yes, it was bad in quite a few ways, but it also felt like a truly thoughtful desktop experience. Global Menu, HUD, merged maximized headers, etc

I mean, anybody could verify it by spending a few hours each on the respective games... But yes, any empirical data would be nice. For example, a study on the amount of blatant hackers found on lobbies joined in comparable ranks. Anyway, this isn't exactly misinformation to anybody who has played both games at any decent rank. It's unproved but immediately discernible information. Take that how you will, i don't really intend to argue about this here. This kind of pointless argument is the worst thing about Lemmy.

I sure wish there was some empirical study regarding the same too. I'm very much going by anecdotal evidence from myself and others right now

you don't actually need kernel level to do anti cheat well.

I'm sure you're right, but VAC is one of the worst examples for that... I think whatever Blizzard does with Overwatch 2 is a better example.

If you're gonna use Opera anyway, why not just use Brave and disable the crypto stuff? The native adblocker on Brave is on par with uBlock Origin and performs even better. Opera is probably the worst direction you can go from where you are right now...

Yes, I'm aware, that's what I was talking about too. As much as I love Vivaldi and want to trust them, i don't think i can trust them as easily as Brave

That's essentially the same as not being open source considering the only part that's open source is the engine code, which is mostly just chromium

Oh thanks! Dearrow looks interesting

Vivaldi is closed source. Brave isn't. Even with all its very real problems, Brave is the best option aside from Firefox, especially once you turn off all the weird stuff
