I am very serious about using Linux exclusively. I have ported/rewritten all of my university's course materials in my past two years of gamedev studies and made them available for others. But the time has come to do an internship and I have yet to find a single studio I could be at while still using Linux. I feel like I reached a dead end tbh

This is a good option for most of it, as the bridges seem quite solid. Sadly it won't make up for calls (some courses have extra content in the form of "Discord Stages" which is like a big video call).

I can echo the frustrations expressed about social media becoming a necessity as it becomes the primary channel for communication by an institution. Both my university and student dorm use exclusively Discord to communicate events, exams, and general announcements. I don't run Discord on my phone and due to this I have come close to missing several important things, if not for a friend letting me know. I'm not sure what if anything could be done to change this...

Thanks for the recommendation! Using it now, works great. Do you know whether development ia continued anywhere? It doesn't look to have been updated in many years, but F-Droid doesn't mark it as unmaintained.

Something I can use to browse GitHub repositories, reply to and create issues, and get notifications for issues on my own repos.

Do you mean Obtainium? I use it to download apps not available on F-Droid, but I can't use it to actually browse/use GitHub. I will clarify in my OP :)

I do too. Envision has an option to install "WiVRn" which I found worked way better than ALVR.

I play VR on Linux, it works surprisingly well, especially via Wayland. There's an app called Envision that sets up basically everything you need for you. Unlike a few years ago, I had to do no fiddling, it just works.

What does a hosted RSS provider give you over a normal client? I use Nextcloud News (self hosted) but I don't really know the benefit over just using an RSS app on my phone (besides syncing my list I guess).

Thank you so much :D I had a lot of fun with that one; happy you liked it.

Yep! You can just paste the URL of the blog into your reader (or try https://blog.allpurposem.at/feed/ if that doesn't work).
