Damn, I didn’t know streamable is so crappy now…
Anyway, I’ve tried a lot of different players and they all struggle.
On the phone it’s almost fine, but any Android TV Box just gets killed with a sufficiently complex scene.

Yep. When I switched out my Nvidia for AMD it was as plug-and-play as it gets.
Most anime have .ASS subtitles and are kinda complex sometimes with singsong related subtitles, but never had any issues on android with them.
That’s exactly what I meant. Most simple subtitles will be fine.
This example is still relatively simple, but it should give you an idea: https://streamable.com/nj8fey
Good fansubs can sometimes do really crazy things, including replacing entire moving backgrounds.
For some content DirectPlay is just not possible, as much as I’d love it to be.
More complex stylized subtitles will absolutely trash almost any Android device unless transcoded.
I think there’s kind of a 3rd choice, WebKit.
That’s where Chromium came from originally, so not really 3rd.
And what else should be recommended?
The choice is basically between Firefox or skinned Chromium.
Do you really want to experience first-hand just why Internet Explorer was this hated?
Here’s a hint: de facto monopoly on browser market that allowed them to control the web standards back then and their ideas were not good.
it has become a sinking ship and I’m eager to see who picks up the shards and runs with it.
I don’t think you have any idea how much work it takes to create a new browser.
Yeah, gotta have that and all that Secure Boot with TPM bullshit, because I’m visualizing a company workstation and nothing will work without those.
Because for some reason, no matter what I try, Windows 10 desktop is laggy as hell on Qemu, and smooth out of the box on VirtualBox.
Also, fun fact: Kagi owner believes only criminals want privacy and GDPR doesn’t apply to them, because they said so!
Heh, I was confused because I switched full-time to Wayland a while ago and that was never an issue for any game… but then you mentioned Nvidia. RIP
I saw they switched recently to partially open source drivers, so hopefully it’s gonna be better for you soon.
I’m currently using KZones, actually, it’s not automatic, but it works pretty great.
If you’re still on X11. Krohnkite didn’t support Wayland all that well last time I checked.
We do have them.
Most popular DEs already support tiling with extensions (Gnome and KDE).
KDE actually added native support, although pretty limited so far.
No, it is insane. I don’t know of other countries that allow a corporation to just not allow you to sue them and force you into arbitration.
Right, that’s why I’m not convinced this will ever actually release.
Abandoning all previous work, and the fact that new devs don’t exactly have experience with this genre…
I’m still gonna give it a try, but I’m not hopeful.
I’m surprised it’s not cancelled yet.
I think at this point its development is even more troubled than the original, which is kinda impressive in its own way.
Yeah… I wonder if it’s the same story here - devs trying to interpret the rules in their own special way and Google putting their foot down.
EDIT: as far as I can tell they kept referral links in the Google Play version and still claim to have no ads or tracking.
I guess they’re still lying.
That’s not really on Valve though.
It’s the hardware makers that needs to step up and make sure their Linux drivers are well written.
I’m tired of having to install patched kernels to get basic functionality on laptops (looking at you Asus!).
users expect support when things don’t work
no shit, that’s why you refuse support for users with unsupported configurations.
This is not a new concept.
It’s standard for big companies to say they only support RHEL or Ubuntu, in every other case you’re on your own.
Instead of axing their entire Linux support they could just do the reasonable thing, which is ignore issues that are out of scope.
Or should they support users trying to run their software on Windows 95, just because it’s still technically Windows?
I tried a few players and they all have issues. :(
