It’s supposed to scale correctly, but otherwise Gamescope will take care of that particular issue.
Kinda annoying on Xorg when the game just decides my screen should be 800x600 and then proceeds to crash and leave me at 800x600 on a 4K display with scaling set to 200%.
It seems to have picked up “circle” as the distro. You’ll need to replace that with the matching Ubuntu or Debian version of what this version of ElementaryOS is.
It was made back when Facebook had that old style UI, in 2010. And then interest in Facebook’s format kinda died, and so did the interest in the project.
What do you want the UI for? For configuration it’s usually meh because it’s the kind of thing you configure by config file, often generated config files even. For stats it’s where it gets interesting, usually third-party options like Grafana is used along with something like Prometheus to collect the metrics.
When it comes to easy configuration, newer options go for the zero configuration angle rather than a nice UI to configure it. Just need some Docker tags and Traefik automagically configures itself, so the UI is just for viewing information.
I don’t remember the exact details but it didn’t work right. That was arguably a couple years ago on a server distro approaching EOL, may have been long fixed. It involved Android 4.4.
Few of them for most use cases, especially a VPS. My server have a couple of IPs each mapping to a different VM, they can all claim 22/80/443 as you’d expect, but that’s just basically the same as having a bunch of VPSes anyway.
It’s useful for some other uses like, I might want to dedicate an IP for VPN exit that doesn’t expose any services.
Another use is sometimes you just want two things to stay entirely separate, even if on a technical level it could work with a reverse proxy. It can eliminate some class of exploits like request smuggling.
One use case I’ve had for a customer is they have a system that can only do TLSv1.0, which is wildly obsolete and exploitable. So that particular API endpoint was served from a secondary IP, that way I can continue to enforce TLSv1.2+ on the primary IP. It’s possible with some reverse proxy magic with HAproxy, but I could also just make a new server block in the existing NGINX bound to that IP and call it a day.
The performance is a good point. You can do the striped mirror with ZFS too and still get the advantages of ZFS.
I think you can do all of that through the Proxmox UI, but it shouldn’t be too hard to do on the CLI either. You just make two mirror sets and you’re good to go. ZFS should automatically distribute the load across the two mirrors.
I’d probably do RAID-Z with ZFS rather than RAID10, better space utilization and better error correction. Should be able to easily set that up in the Proxmox web UI.
Everything else sounds good. Don’t worry too much about it, you will find things you wish you did differently regardless, that’s part of the learning experience.
The graph suggests it started declining well before AI became mainstream. I’m sure it accelerates it, but it had already long peaked.
Maybe, just maybe, most of the big questions have been asked and answered already.
These days when I look something up it’s been answered like 8 years ago, and the answer is still valid. And they aggressively mark questions as dupes, so people aren’t opening too many repeat questions.
LDAC works just fine on Linux, but may be a different package or repo since it’s somewhat proprietary. Just worked out of the box for me on Arch.

Overlay2 support is really nice. I had to use the ZFS driver for it and boy does it pollute your zfs list output.
Also pretty excited about the user properties, it's gonna make initramfs mounting a lot easier over the somewhat buggy parsing of the output of zfs list. Same for encrypted home directories, now I can set a custom user property on them to easily enumerate what my PAM script is supposed to mount/unmount with the user password instead of hardcoded paths.
Wine has always done that, last seen on Plasma 5 (I switched to Wayland with Plasma 6), and I remember that being a thing way back in 2007 too. Valved patched the scaling in Proton as well I believe so that might be why it didn’t do that.
It behaves how fullscreen apps work on Windows, takes over your whole display and messes with the resolution and all.
