Nope, pretty normal. You’ll find that you’ll need frontends and proxies for tons of things. For example Instagram hasn’t ever worked for me with a VPN. I no longer have an account anyway, but for the times someone sends me a link I’ve had to find sites that let you view the content without actually visiting Instagram. Same with reddit, reddit frontends are very good these days (I’d recommend any Redlib instance). Also, sometimes a specific VPN server is IP blocked and you can just connect to a different server to view a web site that blocked you initially. It is a fair amount of work, but honestly its helped me slow down my consumption of random bullshit anyway haha. I use ProtonVPN and pay for premium.

Invidious, one good instance is https://iv.nowhere.moe/

So… does THIS mean that this doesn’t support explicit sync, right as explicit sync is about to be stable and supported in the NVIDIA 560/565 drivers? As far as I know there are currently other ways to do screen capture outside of this protocol on Wayland so its not like there are no interim solutions, why release this when it is essentially still incomplete?

I wonder how this calculus changes with the dawn of AI built into the OS… will a Linux system that avoids all that nonsense end up being more energy efficient?
