 K900 | And I don't know what the solution to that would be | 16:47:10 |
 @angryant:envs.net | Yeh I figured. Seems likely to be a distant secondary priority. | 16:47:19 |
| K900 | But sometimes I wish they were | 16:47:22 |

Yeh I figured. Seems likely to be a distant secondary priority. The Steam Flatpak is notably unofficial | 16:47:36 |
| K900 | So Valve isn't really actively invested in it | 16:47:44 |
| K900 | They're definitely not unaware of it and they've done things to support it better | 16:48:11 |
| K900 | But it's not an official distribution method | 16:48:21 |
| @angryant:envs.net | Exactly. Hence an understandable primary priority of "just make it work" with other considerations very distant. | 16:48:47 |
| K900 | They have been moving towards using more portal APIs | 16:49:21 |
| K900 | Just for better desktop integration | 16:49:29 |
| K900 | So maybe over time it'll get better | 16:49:34 |
| @angryant:envs.net | Ah that very nice in general. | 16:49:38 |

Depends on what you're trying to isolate really all games, native and proton, from being able to read/write anything on the local filesystem, bar the game files + save dir | 19:42:14 |
| K900 | Not in a generic way then | 19:47:49 |
| K900 | You'll need to actually specify where all of that stuff is | 19:47:58 |
| @genericnerdyusername:matrix.org | should I just make gaming user and let the unprivileged account run things as it using doas/sudo | 19:55:51 |

You'll need to actually specify where all of that stuff is so if all the saves are in ~/.config or smth and all the games are under a single steam library path, would that work? | 20:08:03 |

should I just make gaming user and let the unprivileged account run things as it using doas/sudo i have such an account for gaming only and it works pretty well
though usually i log in with it directly rather than switching to it with su/sudo/doas/login | 15:04:28 |

 @woobilicious:matrix.org | Something about NixOS & bcachefs (64 bit inodes?) breaks 32bit Steam games, SteamOverlay never loads and causes lag and stutter, other games struggle finding files (L4D1, Portal), Anyone know why the FHS system might be breaking this? | 08:19:08 |
| K900 | IIRC it's a known issue with bcachefs | 08:19:43 |
| @woobilicious:matrix.org | Something tell me it's specific to NixOS, other people have reported similar issues but most of them seem to work on non-nixos and 64bit inodes.\ | 08:24:32 |
 @atemu12:matrix.org | That's an issue on btrfs aswell I believe | 08:28:34 |
