Lyberta {l Wrote}:At least it is much better that installing them by hand, usually even via root. Or building yourself. This is insane and I welcome proper package managers.

What is it with these containers and why is everyone so excited about them? It seems to me like another M$/Google Steam-like bloat (Wikipedia says they're also among main contributors). Can't a game be just a normal program running under an operating system? Do we have to build another environment on top of an operating system? Sorry, maybe I'm just misinformed, I've just never seen a reason for using these.
drummyfish {l Wrote}:It looks pretty amazing, with a Portal-like mood and a retro pixelated graphics, BUT, guess what... though being otherwise free, it uses an unfree font. It's a tiny pixel font that could easily be replaced, and there was already an issue created about this, but the author closed it. I asked for it to be reopened and suggested some replacement fonts, but am not sure if it's going to work. Maybe if someone is bored out there, forking this and replacing the font could be a nice thing to do Might as well kill two birds and rehost it somewhere else than GH.
