Great!

There are just better noob-friendly distributions, like LinuxMint.

I would like to add: people incredibly underestimate the convenience of having data on Blu-ray rather than on HDD/SSD: Blu-rays last longer and, if purchased cheaply (as in the case of the cheap PS3 game market), have a comparable or superior cost-benefit ratio.

In this case we can say that the console, given its low price on the second-hand market (and if with a working blu-ray player), is incredibly convenient even without the pirate aspect.

You can’t run some games with it (like God of War III if I’m not wrong)

Nobara is very good for middle user that just want a ready-to-game distro; Bazzite is best for noobs, thanks to immutability; for an experienced user there are no reasons to not use Arch.

Arch. Bazzite/Nobara are for noobs (in a positive way, don’t get me wrong). Gaming is in spot where you want stability but also a rolling release, since we have daily improvements on essential packages; as an experienced user you can use Arch for that; consider also even Valve is on it with the Steam Deck (Arch-based).

Thanks! I was looking for something like this 👍

If you want to learn more in depth about how Proton works I suggest you to ask here on [GloriousEggroll’s Discord](https://discord.gg/6y3BdzC.

For emulation, X360 and PS3 needs intense resources and their emulators may be in an early development state; look back to the previous generations, maybe with a cool megabezel shader on RA.

Thank you! 🎉

Void Linux, very clean and fast on old hardware.

Proton is Wine with prefixes, basically, you can use it without Steam on Lutris for example (Wine-GE suggested); also, emulation for old games isn’t so demanding, try different cores for RetroArch.

It’s much simpler and faster than it seems! Also consider that the setup of Lutris and Wine is to be done only once.

You can use Flatseal for this.

Oh, I had completely forgotten about this project created with Godot, thanks for suggesting it! (edit) It seems they don’t have any flatpaks or similar at the moment, seems way behind Pegasus but also promising.

Thanks I will give it a look

There’s any flatpak? (edit) Ok there’s an AppImage. Btw looks like it can’t see my games.

Thanks for reply. Yeah would be nice to have a more complete Lutris in the future but it looks like it’s purpose is more “proprietary oriented”, supporting stores and Discord (for example). I’d like the idea of a RetroArch with non-emulated games supported, maybe with a ‘compatibility core’.

The problem with this solution is to find an Android player capable to read/rate the tag

. . .

A thousand thanks! I don’t know why it was on by default, I find it quite annoying.

I’m already a Syncthing fan but I haven’t found an Android app capable to rate tracks editing the tag.
