    In case its relevant for you or anyone else reading, the new git builds of vesktop work perfectly for screensharing in Discord on Wayland, even with audio.

    Overall good take, I can't really say I disagree with any of what you've said. Obviously there is a need for certain things like auto updating software, it makes sense to have the latest security patches, but this should be an opt-out, not something I'm forced into. Part of the reason I switched to Linux was because of weird forced defaults from Windows and being able to actually own my device - If I want to break it, let me.

    Whether it's a good idea to have this same approach for end users is debatable, but I really do think that there may be some benefit to allowing end users to break things if it's the most effective way to learn.

    I'm working on a game for the jam hosted by Pirate Software at the moment and I'm using LibGDX since I have a lot of experience with Java. Coming from that type of workflow where you have to mostly build everything yourself, I've found using Godot to be... strange. I feel like it will probably just take some time to adjust to how things are different, but after seeing some of the things Godot is capable of, I think it's going to be worth the effort.
