Communities as in what exactly?
The Community Hubs for specific games or various groups that people made?
In either case, it's probably better to intentionally stay out of there, since you know that you generally dislike the content there.
Or, you could try to find a user group that has rules and moderates content in a way that you agree with.
But overall, Steam is platform for video games, which are generally considered to be fun, so it is to be expected that other variations of "fun" will be present there as well.

I am still interested to know the details of how they came to this decision. Why Signal instead of Matrix.
As far as I know, the Signal protocol was chosen to be the intermediary layer between the existing platforms. Matrix protocol was a candidate, but was not chosen.
Still, if you wish to use a bridge between Matrix and some other platform, then you can either set one up yourself or try to find a Matrix server that already has such bridge set up. https://matrix.org/ecosystem/bridges/
the only moderator, laurabrown00, has not been active for 4 years, practically almost since the account and the community were created. At lest according to their post and comment history. But the community is very active, and gets a lot of new posts regularly.

if not, it is another candidate for stopkillinggames.com

In Godot 4.3, a large number of animation features have been reworked since 4.0, so it's time to migrate your animations.
Schools should be the first place where proprietary software should be replaced with FOSS.
Microsoft understands the "get them while they are young" method very well, understands that it is a very significant element of the cycle that keeps them in power, and therefore puts a lot of effort into making sure that this does not change.
So getting children to learn on FOSS and the concepts around it would result in very significant changes, especially in long-term.
Is there any project or organisation that is already trying to achieve that?
If yes, then it would be good to spread the word about them around the internet.
A moment I've no doubt many Linux fans have been waiting to see. The Linux user share on Steam has smashed through the 2% barrier.
Wait, I was told that Core Decay development was halted, that the game was cancelled.

does author know about the Deckard thing that Valve is supposedly working on?
from what I understand, it will be some kind of Steam Machine with focus on In-Home Streaming.

Microsoft is now nagging Windows 10 customers to switch to a Microsoft account instead of using a local account.
there is a #dead_game_news channel in AF Discord

doesn't Steam Hardware Survey report way higher percentage of Linux users?

wouldn't Valve's numbers be more reliable?
Pirate Party MEP Patrick Breyer has asked the European Commission for an opinion on the decision by French computer game manufacturer Ubisoft to make the popular computer game "The Crew 1" unusable from April 2024. In Breyer's opinion, this measure could violate EU law. Meanwhile an initiative centr
Funny how people tend to quote Linus Torvalds on technical issues in order to prove a point. I hear the guy barely made it through college.
Actually, I lied about even that. I was thrown out of fourth grade because I couldn't write my own name, and it's been all downhill from there. I had to lie about getting into college just so that I'd have better chances of making a career here at McDonalds - if you have a college degree (or you lied about having one), they don't make you scrape the burger pans.
heh, he had good sense of humour already back in 1999
Thanks to all of Valve's effort with Proton, Steam Deck and their funding of people working on various other bits of Linux code like GPU drivers - the Linux share on Steam as of March 2024 bounced back to a near multi-year high.

The Mirror, a Roblox/UEFN style game engine built on top of the Godot game engine has just gone entirely open source at GDC 2024.
One of the most popular third-party ROMs is LineageOS 21. Here's how it runs, what's new, and if you should flash it on your phone.

Yes, and there are probably other FOSS applications for that as well.
But it is a bit sad to see that Google considers the "phone" part of the "smartphone" be so obscure functionality that they left it's development to community.
Maybe I should stop living in the past and just accept that the glowing rectangle that we carry around is actually a tiktok machine that can occasionally do some other stuff as well.
this is what open source dialer app died for?
Other comments already pointed to some very good software solutions.
But I would argue that absolutely the biggest barrier to entry for the masses is hardware.
Restoring an old PC or making some cable spaghetti with some SBC is currently too advanced for average person.
Self-hosting for the masses would require some new form of home servers.
Something modular, where adding new components would be as easy as playing with Lego bricks.
