If I recall correctly the script that goes to desktop mode explicitly starts plasma. Though I think they want to change that behaviour in SteamOS 3.8 or 3.9 to be more generic.
The trouble is that on every update all the changes you did to system files would be removed.
So you’d have to install Niri to your home directory and change the scripts that launch it with every update. Nothing impossible just a little bit annoying.
No, I think that would be allowed as well.
I haven’t tried that exactly, but I put OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on mine. I think installing a mainline distribution is the first step you have to overcome to run a different desktop environment on the Deck.
The biggest hurdle will be that you will need custom drivers or maybe even a custom kernel. Because not all necessary drivers have been upstreamed yet. This is especially necessary on the OLED version, as far as I know.
If you go that route https://gitlab.com/evlaV will be your best friend to find everything you need. And Bazzite probably as well. Maybe you can even run Niri/Noctalia on Bazzite. That would probably be the easiest. Or maybe CachyOS has a Steam Deck build.
I just googled something. Don’t remember what I ended up on. Probably some blog post combined with rspamd’s website. It depends on your mailserver anyways.

rspamd is used nowadays. Add sieve filtering to automatically move mails with a 7.0 or higher to a spam-folder. Manually move mails there that haven’t been detected and move mails out of the spam folder that have been falsely detected (personally don’t have any false positives with rspamd).
Then set up bayes learning with rspamd, either when mails are moved between folders or every few hours.

She’d love Germany. Those names would be illegal over here.
Then again the law also explicitly states that you can name your kid any name that’s normal for your heritage. I guess that means an American would be able to name their kid Kitchenaid because it aligns with their traditions.

Gaming@lemmy.ml•Is it just me or does Gaming just not feel the same?
0·4 days agoI’ve been gaming since C64 days. We had the problem of too many games already back then. Hundreds of pirated games on disks and most of them weren’t even good.
The other day I felt the urge to play a new game from the “dead” point & click adventure genre. Filtered my Steam games and even found a relatively recent one with full Steam Deck support that was given away for free.
And I think I can do that with basically any genre.
Great indy titles get released all the time. Emulation gives me the ability to play almost everything from the entire history of gaming. Or just play one of my favourites. I just have to reach out and play. 2023 was an amazing year for gaming. 2025 wasn’t bad either.
Sure, bad games get made as well. But when I feel down I can just stop playing those and play Diarrhea 4 instead.

Before Hannibal I knew Mads Mikkelsen from this super funny movie where his best friend constantly physically abuses him and he kills people and sells their meat as chicken in their butcher shop.

Is that the woman Road to Empress is based on? It’s a pretty funny Chinese drama.
