This would depend on the search engines enabled and/or the default language/country set (if any) for that particular instance, you can find those in the settings of the instance itself (and enable/disable whichever you’re most interested in, as well as a few other relevant settings).
Exactly, I’ve noticed this over the past few months, actual relevant results are being pushed much further down the stack.
If you want to explore alternatives, I’ve been using SearXNG, a so-called “metasearch engine”, where you can get a combination of various search engine results, based on your preferences. It’s pretty good, when it works (it tends to get rate-limited fairly often… or at least some of its results / search engines do, which can get annoying).
Cheers for that. I’ve cut the cord from Google Photos without a solid replacement and it’s been… pretty miserable tbh.
I’ll look into setting up a Synology NAS, as it seems to be a relatively inexpensive solution moving forward (Proton is nowhere near what I’m looking for feature-wise and other self-hosted foss solutions aren’t really there yet afaict).
Ah, that’s pretty shitty if true, do you have any examples?
I’ve been using more of their apps recently, so I’d like to avoid being in that situation in the future :/
Pixel 6 Pro running GrapheneOS, which I got a couple months ago. Pixel phones are the only ones compatible with GrapheneOS, otherwise I would’ve kept my Samsung phone tbh
anti-cheat isn’t an issue per se, as long as game developers decide to add the required files to their games (eg what Apex: Legends devs did a year or so ago, around the time the Steam Deck launched, to ensure proper Proton compatibility), but in short - yes, many online games will still require you to dual boot anyways, unfortunately.
i’m no content creator, so i can’t recommend good alternatives to the apps you mentioned, however OBS works flawlessly on most Linux distros, so you should have zero issues with live streaming.
oh and i would say driver support is usually better on the Linux side, although I think Debian based distros (like PopOS) might lag a bit behind compared to other distros? this might be outdated knowledge though, so take that with a pinch of salt
This one is on IzzyOnDroid and has been working great for me
