I looked at the August 2024 results and SteamOS was not mentioned anywhere in the OS version section.

Probably because everybody with a Steam Desk shows up as Arch in the survey.
Had you looked up the current stats, you would have known that this is completely false. SteamOS is in massive lead and I used the phrase “general purpose distribution” for a reason.
Latest non-LTS Ubuntu could be high up the Steam Survey list but isn’t. The strongest general purpose distribution is Arch Linux.
Interesting how the numbers between “computer pros” and hobbyists (Steam Survey) diverge. Unsurprisingly for Steam gamers the Windows numbers are way higher but for Linux specifically Ubuntu is crashing hard since a few years from absolute domination to all Ubuntu versions + derivatives (Mint + pop_OS) combined barely making up 20% of the Linux user base whereas at Stack Overflow there’s a clear lead of Ubuntu over the rest.
Edit:
Have Facebook not heard of the Internet? Anyone can right click save as.
They have, old politicians haven’t
Except it’s not deferderated by everyone.
I used Fedora in the past and found the KDE Spin a little less polished. I don’t know the current situation but there was a time Fedora KDE shipped out of the box with three web browsers because the volunteers couldn’t agree on one, whereas the RH employees just decided that they want Firefox and not Gnome Web for RHEL, so in Fedora they just did the same. Updates were rolled out in a timely manner (and I heard nothing that indicated anything changed in that regard), so the volunteer squad didn’t do a worse job there than the paid Gnome people.
And PSN requirement for PC gamers.
Edit: It’s actually opt-in.
… in certain areas:
Yeah, because your instance and almost all instances have decided to straight-up defederate
No, it didn’t defederate from Threads.
cuz Meta will access the federated info
Meta will access Threads accounts via federation? Um, sure… I mean it’s on their platform already…
I just edited my comment to add a link to the guide for opting in.
“Be outside Europe” is hardly a guide to opt in. 🙄 I’m in Europe and my Threads profile just isn’t available on ActivityPub. Period.
If Brazilian fediverse is anything like English fediverse, its community was probably tied up in discussions who to deferderate from next and vegan cat food instead of promoting Mastodon.
Threads uses opt-out ActivityPub.
That’s not true. I can neither opt my test account in nor out of ActivityPub. It’s simply not available to Mastodon.
a specific monster that only appears in one dungeon.
Definitively wrong. Quick googling confirms that more than one type of monster is affected: https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Sketch_bug
Original FF6 broke easily as well. There’s that girl character that has that ability to paint monsters and then mirrored versions of the monsters attack for you. Often the game was left in a corrupted state and crashing after a while. I usually loaded a save immediately but once the last save was a long time ago. I managed to enter a cave, a town, or something. Loading fresh data meant the game would no longer crash. All my item inventory slots were filled with random trash, though, which I sold to get rid of. Afterwards I had so much money, I could max out my equipment, potions, etc.

Do regular Mastodon instances and clients play nicely with Threads?
You can’t connect to Threads using a Mastodon client but you can follow select Threads accounts from the Mastodon instance your client is connected to. Threads is still in what is basically a public beta. That’s why there are currently no ads there either (but they were announced recently).
Given how long it took to fix the federation issues back in december (0.19 update), I’d be hesitant about updating, too.
But you’re on a 0.19.5 instance. Do you experience issues? There’s some incompatibility with Mastodon, apparently, but given that 0.19.5 addresses serious privacy issues and has been out for a while without big problems, the privacy fixes are more important than keeping 100% Mastodon compatibility. Surely 0.19.6 will be out soon enough to address them.
is shared with a few other active services.
Why would you do that, given that Lemmy is 0.x software?
I eat that free hotdog every week, then go across the street and buy another one.
You actually eat it? I put it in the fridge for bad times but only eat the ones from the other side.
No, not without lobbying Valve.
Certainly because non-LTS versions are not in the main table as well but neither are Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, NixOS, etc.
