Universal Linux app solutions: Snap Store now available also as a Snap app!

When installed, used it to browse, search, install / manage Snap apps on about any Linux distro.

The Snap Store snap package: useful on Linux distributions which do not integrate Snap apps in to the app store by default.

In addition to obviously Ubuntu, Pop!_OS (from System76, the creators of fine Linux laptops) utilises snapd out of the box.

Linux 5.2: "Golden Lions".

Linus Torvalds the Finnish father of Linux named Linux 5.2 as "Golden Lions" due Finland (Leijonat / Lions) winning GOLD in the ice hockey World Championships.

He's known to be quite patriotic even though now living in Portland, USA.

The Lions represented a sensational performance with a roster of many first timers by crushing teams buzzing with top NHL players.

Total War: Three Kingdoms | Feral has managed a same-day Linux release!

Is this a sign of porting games between platforms has now come to a point where it is not THAT much more of an effort?

A turn-based real-time tactics strategy video game was developed by Creative Assembly (published by Sega).

Which one they DID pick already, then?

Jolla / Sailfish OS: a benefit from Huawei's Android ban.

A surprise momentum on the recent Trump Administration's decision to blacklist Huawei.

Jolla:

“We believe the world is not going to be only iOS and Android forever. Such a world scenario simply limits natural human innovation, and as seen by the topical political acts, can be also very risky for the industry.”

Run also Android apps on Sailfish.

Manjaro has served so well now for years. I can understand its popularity boost on recent times!

And now after Antergos passing, even more so.

I would never put any of the rolling release distros on a machine of a newcomer though!

GRID Ultimate Edition (a reboot) - WISHLIST on Steam if you want LINUX support !!

Feral Interactive did the port for GRID Autosport so there is a good chance Linux gamers to also receive this one.

* The correct course of action: set your platform preference on Steam to "SteamOS + Linux" on a Linux machine & wishlist GRID.
