Oh god, me too. Fixing that and how having it connected to my TV disrupts every other device connected to it for some reason (HDMI-CEC problems maybe).

This is great! Thank you so much for giving me some direction here.

I’m going to give this a whirl on one of the units and see how it goes.

Thanks, that’s very kind of you to offer.

I’ve got quite a few older machines. I’m pretty keen to figure out the top four, at least.

Any advice on the following and/or on the method of identifying viable distros and versions in general is very appreciated.

• MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2.53 GHz, Mid 2009)
• iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009)
• Mac mini Server (Mid 2010)
• MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2013)
• MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)
• iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)
• Mac mini 2018

Question for you guys.

How do you know which version to install relative to the hardware? Is it just trial and error?

I have some 13 year old Macs but I’m not sure which distro and version to go with and I’m not keen on spending days figuring it out.

I recall reading another post from some guy who went through like six installs with various problems. Didn’t seem encouraging.

You can self-host Feedbin or you can get a paid account for $30 USD.

Lots of great functionality built-in. I use Unread app for iOS as the front-end instead of Feedbin’s web app. A paid Unread account would also give you RSS feed hosting, but less feature rich.

Yes this is the same issue I’ve noticed. I’ve been playing Vampire Survivor exclusively for some time so I’m not sure if the problem is game specific or SteamOS. Probably the latter. I can run a different game later and see or maybe you can let me know.

I’ve noticed a black screen after exiting a game lately but just thought it was a problem with the specific game. I have to press the back button to get out of it and back to where you’d normally land after exiting a game, the game selection page/menu from the library in steam (there’s probably a better name for it).

Is that what you mean?

Thanks for that!

For whatever reason, the interface was difficult to navigate, jumping up and down, but once I got it on the Quick Settings I was able to rearrange the controllers.
