Fossery Tech :debian: :gnome:I just tried out 0.A.D and spent my whole afternoon playing it (which is pretty unusual from me, because I almost never play any games 😂). It's so addicting I shouldn't play it regularly lol But regardless, it's a great game, idk why everyone says that FOSS games suck. Luanti/Minetest is also pretty good, has quite many games/mods<a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/0AD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#0AD</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/OpenSourceGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSourceGame</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FOSSGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSSGame</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FosseryTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FosseryTech</a>

Fossery Tech :debian: :gnome:FOSS NEWSFirefox receives new Terms of Use, Mozilla argues that it will offer users "more transparency" over their "rights and permissions", but its wording raises concerns, it only applies to the executable code though, so forks like LibreWolf probably won't be affected: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/mozilla-introducing-terms-of-use-to-firefox"

183231bcbI'm trying to make a list of open source video games with final bosses. Why? Because a lot of games from my childhood have very memorable final bosses. A lot of modern indie games have great final bosses. But most open source games have no bosses, let alone final bosses. Here's the list so far on geminispace: <code>gemini://envs.net/~bcb16999/Open-source-games-with-final-bosses.gmi</code> And the mirror on the web: <a href="https://gemini.envs.net/~bcb16999/Open-source-games-with-final-bosses.gmi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://gemini.envs.net/~bcb16999/Open-source-games-with-final-bosses.gmi</a> Please give me hints as to what I should add! <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/OpenSourceGame" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSourceGame</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FreeGames" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeGames</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FossGame" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FossGame</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FossGames" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FossGames</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FinalBoss" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FinalBoss</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FinalBosses" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FinalBosses</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Angband" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Angband</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/BattleForWesnoth" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BattleForWesnoth</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Wesnoth" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wesnoth</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Flare" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Flare</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FlareRPG" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FlareRPG</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Empyrean" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Empyrean</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FlareEmpyreanCampaign" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FlareEmpyreanCampaign</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Freedoom" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Freedoom</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/FreedoomPhase2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreedoomPhase2</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Nethack" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nethack</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Slashem" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Slashem</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/SeahorseAdventures" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SeahorseAdventures</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/ShatteredPixelDungeon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ShatteredPixelDungeon</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/SuperTuxKart" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SuperTuxKart</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Umoria" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Umoria</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Xeonjia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xeonjia</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/XeonjiaIceAdventures" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#XeonjiaIceAdventures</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Gemini" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gemini</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/GeminiProtocol" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GeminiProtocol</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/ProjectGemini" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProjectGemini</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Geminispace" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Geminispace</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Lugaru" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lugaru</a>
