I hadn’t heard of a “self hostable Steam-like platform” before; after reading the above post I became very excited… until I read it doesn’t support a Linux client and isn’t FOSS.

Thank you for sharing this alternative! Configuring it for my homelab environment right now.

@StarkZarn@infosec.pub have you heard of NixOS? If you’d become a contributor with these bitesized posts that you’re doing you’d be increasing the repeatability of your work immensely.

No pressure. Just doing some evangelization 🙂

I have no idea what the actual reason is, I am just responding to the German language aspect.

In Dutch the word “niks” means nothing.

If Mr. Dolstra used a “nothing” reference, wouldn’t it make more sense that the Dutch person referenced the Dutch word “niks”, which is pronounced exactly the same way as Nix?

As far as conjecture goes this is far more plausible than a Dutch guy picking a German word “nichts” that resembles the pronunciation of the word/name Nix.

And for some reason Hollywood has engrained on society the notion that the Dutch natively speak German. Some of them learn it, but it is not their native language.
