  • What parts of it aren't working? I've had no problem switching between 3 bluetooth headsets (triplets of the same) once I renamed each. Things have been much easier since moving to pipewire in last two years. I can see all of them simultaneously in KDE, so that makes it okay to have one set outputting a recording session monitoring while another does regular audio playback.

  • I've been using Lutris with my Gog games, which has been great. Using it for boomer shooter mods.

  • I have not personally encountered a Google-based app I could not run within Sandboxing google play services on a GrapheneOS running Pixel phone. So, fwiw, it is working in my experience these last three-ish years.

  • In that case you would switch back.... my thought is to add xkill or similar to a keybinding so it can be called without switching away from the thing.

  • Haha, I actually talked about it on my podcast at 28:17 of my podcast here. I use the rustdesk clients through a selfhosted server I access through VPN, which has been great while out of the office. I find it simple enough to use, so no real complaints.
