Without caring to read the replies to that mail, pretty sure it’s because the forum feature can be seen as a social network and they just don’t want to deal with getting guardian’s approval and similar BS some laws around the world may require. openSUSE is a corporate-led distribution after all. They have to abide by different rules than some dude remixing Ubuntu in his bedroom.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•"Valve’s new Steam Controller has a major problem for PC games not on Steam"
2·15 days agoRaise your hand if “your ecosystem” is built on free and open source software. Yeah. Literally no one else. STFU.
Funny how almost everyone else here didn’t even care to read the article where it clearly states that the source of the complaint is “Game Pass games installed through the Xbox app are locked down on Windows 11.” So typical Microsoft behaviour.
And yet, you’re being the one voted down.

1·15 days agoYou should generally always wait and see with basically all tech products. There is never really a reason to buy freshly released products except for FOMO stupidity.
Except that tech products get more expensive over time these days, not cheaper.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•"Valve’s new Steam Controller has a major problem for PC games not on Steam"
2·15 days agoOP forgot to quote the actually relevant part which is in an embedded tweet:
Game Pass games installed through the Xbox app are locked down on Windows 11.
The root cause for the problem once again is Microsoft and their locked Xbox / Game Pass eco system.
Valve contributed open source drivers to Linux and SDL months ago.
I said it before and I happily repeat myself again: Just get an 8bitdo controller. The Ultimate2C is affordable and solid (Ultimate 3E for high end users) and I also never encountered a scenario where I would prefer a controller with trackpads over a good wireless keyboard with integrated touchpad and here Framework‘s upcoming one looks the most promising.

1·15 days agoIs the whole operating system open source, or just the Linux kernel it is built on? Where do you acquire the source code?
Everything in SteamOS except the Steam Client is open source. Always has been (over a decade).

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•Steam Controller page updated: $99 USD, releases May 4th
1·17 days agoI did not say it acts as a Xbox controller, but said similar to a Xbox controller.
Digital Foundry outright spells it out with a statement by Valve as to why: It does NOT act as a game controller without Steam running. It acts as a mouse! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMstfBYpdmg&t=596s
Seems like Jeff either made shit up or he accidentally stumbled on a niche scenario where it does act like a regular gamepad without Steam but if two credible reviewers say the same about it acting as mouse, just like Deck and SC 2015, this is also the reality regular customers face.

If you didn’t switch to a credible distribution after all the shit Canonical pulled already, you won’t switch away from Ubuntu this time either.

And GN said that it behaves exactly like Deck and SC 2015: It’s a mouse without Steam running.
Either GN or Jeff is wrong.

People who already have four Xbox controllers probably are fine with the option not to pay for additional controllers.
