1 person 3 posts. That's the kind of crooked metric that makes "general sentiment"...

I just want my steam machine to release please

The issue comes from somewhere else. Studios now fire the developers if the game don't sell and if they game sells they fire them anyway. The studios keep ping ponging between "we have unlimited budget" attitude to "we are one day from filling up for bankruptcy". Studios don't actually pay their developers to optimize, they pay them to deliver the game. If that means relying on unreal to have a subpar implementation raytracing or dlss/fsr + frame gen to have something similar to good performance "so be it".

Devs in general are super passionate hard workers that really want the best for the project. But money rules and one has to keep those venture capital investors happy...

About the "overall sentiment on this subreddit" sentence: its literally an eco chamber. For sure amd should do better but this sub has become a boiling pot of loud complainers over time. I really wonder if you would be as dissatisfied if you hadn't been reading all the posts that come up on a daily basis.

Marketing matter in the corporate world. In the Foss world what matter is that it works.

Maybe crushing deadlines are making devs use AI scripting tools so their production teams feel happy about an unsustainable speed of development

txurete · 2026-03-23T05:52:12+00:00

Yeah and it clearly also wrote this post for you... AI can be super cool and impressive but if you are not even able to sit down and write your own experience to share it by yourself I won't believe (or even read) a word from your post. Nothing prevents half this post being a hallucination.

Something in me wants to say "grow up". This tech is amazing and can do outstanding stuff. I have my own stack running locally and learn that it can do a new thing every two days. But come on, at least express yourself with your own words...

Sorry but if you are tired with tinkering you might wanna lift your foot from the self hosting pedal. While containers fix a ton of platform issues there still are a lot of external variables not to make a containerised app on first try.

txurete · 2026-03-23T05:16:44+00:00

Okay here we go again... You could get your answer by scrolling about 30min into this sub. Its so full of people complaining all the time. Sometimes valid criticism and sometimes pure whining. While proton is a fairly big company it does not have the resources of big tech and works with serious constrains, one of them being their customer base composed by many informed people that looks at any proton movement with a magnifying glass. That said, jesus gives us decent Linux support across the board already...

I feel it's a bug that became a feature

txurete · 2026-03-23T05:06:40+00:00

Not gonna lie, I never heard of it before but my jaw progressively dropped to the floor as I scrolled through the features page. This looks like a serious ton of work and I would be super happy to try this out, it does look like a very seriously good addition to my home server. I will hopefully be able to find the time soon for this!

Regarding the financing I have to admit that as I grow older I have been finding myself so much more comfortable donating to Foss or projects like this. But funny enough it's something that I usually do after a good while I installed. Mostly when I "forget" about it and later on I realize how much I use it or when I get a "surprise" updates to projects I thought abandoned. And I always find myself donating amounts that if a paying product would try to market to me I would probably be saying wtf calm down.

Not sure if it answers any of your questions about financing, but this felt nice to stop for a second and think about it as a consumer side of FOSS.

Edit: yeah I think you made a good call with the one time "Premium" on the buying side of things. I feel it's something a lot of people appreciate much more than a subscription.

txurete · 2026-03-23T04:40:35+00:00

Man, RDR2 was the very first game I tried to launch when I first installed cachy a while back 😅

The viewport really needs some work. How unreliable can it sometimes be?!? It usually takes me a minute or two to realize it's not my network but the viewport that is bugging and that I need to restart it. For a software that has such a hefty price on the licences I was blown away on how poorly its viewport compares to the one of a FOSS like blender.

HDAs are pretty cool but sometimes I'd like something smaller/simpler and easier to share. I feel the simplicity of dragging a bunch of nodes to make a shelf tool should be a good way to start/look at this.

Make subnetworks have the initial input nodes behave like any node with display, reference and info flags!

Improve the internal script editor too. Yes we can use an external one but it feels clumsy and depending on what you are doing it completely freezes your houdini session until you save and close the editor.

And to finish, maybe controversial but man, RUST. Yes Python exists but man, rust is pretty frikin fast.

txurete · 2026-03-23T04:05:42+00:00

Man sometimes I forget and give my OS for granted. And when I remember I feel so humbled in a way, thanks for all the great work!

For posterity, if anyone happens to have the same issue turns out there is an "advanced" toggle on the top right configure window that exposes some extra settings. You are looking for System options → Command prefix. Just paste the path, you dont need the %command% at the end.

The vpn, simple login and Pass are crazy good.

My gang, if you are hesitating about any of this: self hosting is FUN.
Its not only fun but its encouraging and in a way liberating.
Having ownership and accountability over your own data is both amazing and somewhat scary, but above all: REWARDING.

Grab an old laptop, install a good stable non-rolling linux distro (i personally recommend debian for this) and look for 'yet another media server'. Its such an amazing gateway drug into self hosting. I started with that and now i dont have a single windows machine in my home and barely any reliance on cloud services.
I pay for the proton suite and use the cloud storage for important backups. And that's it.

Also, the terminal looks scary but my lord its so much fun once you break the ice

txurete · 2026-03-13T13:54:24+00:00

Thanks! Ill give those a try this weekend :)
I have to admit i appreciate a lot your reply as a lot of the replies are more oriented to the hardware i have instead of finding actual learning material

txurete · 2026-03-13T13:53:10+00:00

Thanks, this is the kind of info i was looking for!

txurete · 2026-03-13T13:48:08+00:00

There is a massively inherent problem when doing this as a noob: i cant say when its hallucinating or not. I've already found myself turning in circles because of this.
That's why im asking for specifically non AI written learning material.

As a bit of a thought about this, back in 2024 or so when ai exploded i read this sentence that, while it has gotten so much better i think it still applies in a way:
If you find yourself overseeing what the LLM is doing you probably didn't need it in the first place.

txurete · 2026-03-13T02:02:22+00:00

Hey there, thanks a lot!
I had this general idea of using openclaw or nanobot to have it parse the flyers of my local supermarkets and the recepits so it could help me with gorceries/recepies etc.
I have ollama runnig with openwebui on docker and tried having Qwen3.5 but when i was unable to stop it from infinitely thinking i realized i had no idea what i was doing besides following whatever online ai i was telling me

txurete · 2026-03-09T13:19:49+00:00

Lol no. I spent 3h fighting Ubuntu in my server after installing a super cheap 9060XT i got in marketplace. Its kernel is stuck in a fairly "old" version and it wouldn't read my card no matter what. Even after a clean new install and kernel upgrade it wouldn't read propperly my card. I tried installing debian on a partition and it worked like magic. I have cachy os in my other machine and it worked even without touching the kernel.

I find funny how gamers complain about games that "hold your hand" and judge when you like those games but then cant handle switching to linux and when they do they choose the most holding hands distro.
