So right now im kind of doing option 1, but .local (I’ll switch to .internal) and not using * ( which I will change and see if it let’s me use the subdomains I configured in caddy that werent working before)

Option 2 it what I considered switching too, I have adguard running on my router, but was testing option 1 when I decided that I might want to skip ahead to something more advanced. I really dont want to have to install certs on each device to get past the warning for https.

Option 3 is on my backlog, I have a vps I planned on setting up pangolin on later down the road after I got some of my services spun up, but maybe I should take care of that now instead.

Option 4 is something I briefly looked into before realizing its way over my head, and im also pretty risk adverse.

Sumarry: so maybe option 3, and possible option 2 if its still needed when on my local network without having a client running.

I tried soylent (powder and premade) years ago and I didn’t mind the taste or feel (some people dislike it). But I always felt “off” after drinking it, and overall didn’t enjoy it, but it might have gotten better since.

I started drinking huel a year or 2 ago, for exactly the same reason as you. It was perfect for a while, but the changed the receipt not too long before they got acquired and the lead report came out, and since then its not as “satisfying” as it was before.

If you do go with huel, I recommend the black edition, the higher protein helped me not feel hungry for longer.

Every time I’ve had this happen to me or anyone else I knew, its because the wine version changed which can sometimes cause issues with the wine prefix.

I know you said no updates, but just in case you didn’t factor in the version of proton/wine updating, that could be what makes it seem like its randomly happening.

The easiest fix is to blow away the wine prefix, but depending on the game that could also blow away any SAVE DATA or mods installed for that game. And depending on how you have lutrus setup, multiple games could be setup to use the same wine prefix if they’re using the same version of wine.

If you end up thinking this might be the issue, and you have trouble finding a guide, just reply and I’ll try to find a good one for you.

Its one of the top level comments, not sure if im linking this right (first time trying like this): Link to comment - https://piefed.social/comment/12205039

Direct link to comparison website - https://vpn.techlore.tech/

Thanks, thats helpful! I saw someone post a link in another comment to a comparison chart (i should have read the rest of the thread before replying), and it looks like they’re at the top of my list now.

Before I switched from proton VPN to mullvad VPN, I thought I remembered when doing research there was only a few providers that said they did no logs, and had proof either through 3rd party audits or shown they couldn’t provide anything when court ordered.

Does IVPN have proof they do not log? Because im in the same boat, I dont want my money supporting fascists, but i also dont know of any alternative to switch to?

Besides switching back to proton VPN (which id rather not get into any controversy around them)

It would be more straightforward to answer if it was less hours vs more pay, rather than easier.

Easier is too subjective, and I dont trust a boss to fairly judge what’s easier for the worker. Also any time throughout history when things got “easier” for the worker, more work in other areas or aspects just got piled on.

If my boss gave me the option of either working 4 days instead of 5, or get a 20% raise, id pick the former.

I think your 3rd paragraph perfectly demonstrates the underlying issue, the “posted a message, with zero knowledge at all of linux” part.

People learn differently, and have different approaches to learning something new. Some people prefer to ask for input, advice, or opinions from other people they belive to be more knowledgeable. Others prefer to read and absorb as much information as they can to get a solid foundation, and only reach out to others when the information they need is not readily available, or their issue is nuanced and specific.

Neither approach is right or wrong, they’re just different, because people are different. The former view the the latters as being toxic, and the latters view the formers as being lazy. Linux and more technical communities with more of a learning curve typically are made up of the latter.

It would be cool if there was a sort of linktr.ee for git hosting, so I could could search for a repo and it would tell me what platform its on, if there are any mirrors, etc.

I agree with another comment, it might be A/B testing. I get it sometimes (and sometimes not) when opening links from my RSS app to my Android Ironfox browser. I have ublock setup and adguard on my router.

Just to clarify, when mentioning problems with battle.net (in general), the issue you’re talking about is that when you click play for a game, afterwards the button shows “running” then switched back to “play” without anything popping up, correct?

If so, your issues probably aren’t related to anything on your machine except wine (as mentioned by other comments, don’t worry about drivers or vulkan or anything).

There is a known issue that when switching between wine versions, if that exact scenario occurs, you have to blow away the wine prefix.

For some games this is harmless, some save config files or saves for players in the prefix.

Instead of trying to lock drivers or mesa or vulkan to specific versions, instead lock whatever version of wine you have set for battle.net in lutrus to a static version. That includes not using proton-experiemental or proton-ge latest, but instead a set version like proton-ge10.26 (or whatever).

Disclaimer, without doing a bunch of digging, my advice will be limited.

Some questions, are you using X11 or wayland?

Are you launching battle.net through a different method than the games that do work, i.e. are all your steam games running fine but you launch battle.net through lutris or bottles or something?

How long has your install been up and running?

It looks like the vulkan that works is a slightly higher version than the amd and rad ones (the first lines from the files you posted). Vulkan should be getting pulled in by Mesa, i would check to see if you have multiple versions of Mesa installed as well.

Depending on the cutoff year (when amdgpu as a default driver got replaced with RADV) , whether your cpu has a igpu (again, didn’t look up what gen those where), you could have 2 separate AMD drivers being installed, one for your igpu, and one for your dgpu.

Also the ones that are labeled (that don’t work but do output when you run those commands) could be used and pulled in because of X11, where the “unidentifed” is being used by wayland) i could be misreading, but i belive that command around pathing is more for X11 than wayland.

TLDR: the versions should be the first line in the texts you shared. Id figure out what is pulling and installing all 3 of those as deps for you to end up with them on your machine (unlabeled probably mesa, amd and rad probably drivers), and to research id look for some tools to debug and log what happens when you run a program so you can see the paths and LIBS hit.

Looks like you probably already hit this link: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Vulkan

Id check out this one too: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU

Sorry for the miscommunication, I was trying to provide clarity around their technical implementation.

Since they are all image/layer based (like docker or containers), i was expressing that uBlue is the base image, and bazzite, aurora, and bluefin are all layered on top of uBlue, not each other.

uBlue is the original or base distro. Aurora, bluefin, and bazzite are spins of uBlue.

So a lot of documentation in general typically only covers beginner or expert levels, with almost no intermediate.

It’s always “here’s how to say hello world” or “here is how to extend our implementation at a low level”.

So it’s nice to have examples of intermediate use cases for power users who need to do more than the most basic examples, but don’t plan on submitting PRs to add or change functionality.

More info, guides, and examples are always better than less (as long as it’s accurate).

I’ll definitely have to take advantage of the hardware acceleration.

In regards to gaming, what kinds of games have you typically used this for? I’m not thinking about using this for competitive shooters or something like that where every ms counts, but what about games like a souls like where timing a parry or something matters, have you tried anything like that?

Lacking those features is perfect fine for me, I’m looking more for a remote display and input implementation anyway.

One last question, have you experimented with any compression or “enhanced” encryption for the ssh connection? If so, has that impacted the responsiveness at all?

You have no idea how grateful I am to you right now.

This has been on my personal project backlog for awhile now. I have run into so many issues and headaches with possible rdp or vnc solutions for my desired use case, especially with wayland being a must have.

I have recently fell in love with ssh and was planning on looking more into waypipe as a possible route to take as I kept seeing it recommended, but the examples and documentation i found was always “generic” or surface level and didn’t have enough of the pieces I needed to scrape together.

I’ve been putting it off due to only having surface level knowledge about all the pieces, and you merged like 10 of them in one go.

My biggest question to you is what is performance like? Like picture quality, audio delay, and latency/responsiveness around mouse and keyboard inputs? How does it compare to using something like an ipkvm, rdp, rust desktop, etc?
