Personally I think a steam controller 2 should have one large touchpad, two thumbsticks, and abxy (also keep the shape and add USB c)

So basically just the Xbox controller?

Tbh they should just turn it into a google Linux distro, IMO just bundle Gnome with it and add flatpak support

Yeah, I just need to add an argument before the command. I set up an alias so its simple to launch.

I managed to get Steam working with some work, heroic games launcher worked with no extra effort, and everything in the repo is good (Alpine is independent)

I personally haven’t ran into any yet, tbh I have more issues with SystemD dependent apps (Also keep in mind Alpine packages and maintains apps in their repo so they don’t require GLIBs/SystemD)

I wouldnt call it enthusiast grade, every day usage is easy but installation can be tough (it gives you a barebones system).

Alpine:

• Rolling release (Alpine Edge) yet stable
• Extremely lightweight
• Very customizable
• After setting it up I find that it works very well
• Decently sized repo
• OpenRC rather then SystemD (I prefer the way it handles services)

Tbh I kinda hope Bethesda doesn’t make a new Fallout game, I predict if they do make a new one it’ll make Fallout 76 look like New Vegas in comparison.

I have a minimal system on my Thinkpad T440p

I use Steam and I run Alpine

Not sure

Continuing to use Reddit is just sunk cost fallacy, does it have more posts? Yes but Lemmy can have more posts if we use it. As someone who spent a long time building and maintaining subreddits did it hurt a bit when I left? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely

I wanted a Wayland WM but also something lightweight

Sway :3

I personally use Alpine on my Thinkpad

I checked, if you insist on a tablet your best option is going with an older microsoft surface tablet.

Yeah but they won’t be as locked down and have better specs, there are pocket sized laptops if that’s what you want. It won’t be more portable but it’ll be equvilant.

At that point you wouldn’t benefit much from the tablet features, have you considered getting a tiny laptop (I can recommend a few)?

I’ll probrally be one of the few people here to say this but tbh if you need Windows then don’t feel pressured to use Linux. Its not worth (IMO) the stability loss to dualboot, feel free to keep using Windows.
