Runs perfectly fine on Linux though, with DX11 or Vulkan. On Windows, Vulkan has some performance issues that make it quite unenjoyable, but in Linux for me it plays a lot better with Vulkan than Windows DX11.

Valve keeping up with the trend of "worst kept secrets"
Well it's very intentional I believe. You can invite an unlimited number of friends and there's no NDA or anything, they just casually ask you to not share details about the game since it's still a work in progress and in alpha, despite it looking like mostly finished to be fair. Characters are fully voiced and nothing really screams placeholder content, and most updates are regarding "balancing" and mechanic changes, just trying out what's best.
It's actually closer to Battleborn. Like the other commenter said, it's more of a third person shooter with MOBA elements. There's focus on movement (you can dash, double jump, crouch slide, some characters fly), headshots and distance change the damage and melee/parry are just a button, while every character has guns as their man attack means. For the moba elements, it changes a bit since there's 4 lanes and it's a 6x6.
I actually did follow those and the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA_Optimus I think most of the things are related to laptops where the dGPU can be turned off, but I don't think that's my case since my main monitor is plugged there. I guess what I need to do is find a way to set the iGPU as the default and whatever I need to run on my dGPU i use prime-run, but I'm not having much success with this.
This does not use the FOLON Downgrader, Because I don't like the idea of signing into my steam account through someone else's program
You're not signing though someone else's program, you're signing though SteamCMD. Your credentials are on your PC and Valve's server only.
Also there's a new automated tool to install it on the Steam Deck which I believe could work just as well on desktop Linux with little or no tinkering
Well but that still depends on Google adding that functionality, which can be anytime between now and never
Doesn't it depend entirely on FMD network? If so, then it shouldn't work better or worse than the other options since they all use the same restricted Google network
This doesn't change anything, Google said 7 years of OS updates, not 7 Android versions. The device should be getting support until 2031 regardless of which android version it shipped with
I think it depends on the app though. I use obtainium and it can download and update Firefox Nightly without any input from me, but for Mastodon I need to manually download and install it
Only on new phones that ship with 6.1.1, so your existing phone won't change this setting with the update. There's also a page during the OOBE setup with a toggle for this block where you can simply tap to disable it before proceeding.
Just don't update the app from Play Store, it's not automatic, you have to chose to change its source to the Play store
I'm running Wayland. I do feel that Plasma is using my iGPU to render the desktop since it's quite noticeable some stutters and lower performance compared to disabling the iGPU and having both monitors on my dGPU, but unfortunately I can't really chose what gets rendered by what. On Windows, this setup works fine, I can chose Firefox to use the "power saving" or whatever and it runs on my iGPU, videos get decoded by it.
I tried plugging my monitors on my motherboard (I have a HDMI and DP outputs) and it works as expected, everything renders on the iGPU and I'd need prime-run for my games, though this is far from ideal since I lose VRR and HDR.
