Seeing folks give season greetings to Linix gamers made me wonder if self promotion is allowed here?
I, as well as a few other Linux gamers, stream to our Owncasts, which have Federation connectivity, but wondering if we should be posting here when we go live on Owncast to spread the word. If that's ok?
To think of a few, Samsai, Hatnix, Hamishptb, and myself only stream to our own private Owncasts.
Again you can follow folks through federation, or get desktop notifications on go live, but I personally like the Firefox Owncast Extension.
Either way, Happy Holidays or even just a happy regular day to everyone!

Good day all. I'm on Fedora 38, firefox-114.0-1.fc38.x86_64. Whenever I go to beehaw it seems that the Isolated Web Container just starts consuming my entire ram, then swap, essentially halting my system.
That other site listed issues, but they're all private now. Anyone else hitting memleaks with the isolated web containers?
I do have quite a few extensions, but I was hitting this even in private browser mode with the extensions off and Chromium doesn't appear to suffer any issues.
So I'm thinking this is a memleak int he firefox Isolated Web Containers.
EDIT: Just tried downgrading to firefox-111.0.1-1.fc38.x86_64 and while the Isolated Web containers does take up a lot of memory is seems to balance out.
Just finished Alma's Awakening on PC. It seems like a classic NES Metroidvania game. While I'm not a Metroidvania fan, I hate backtracking and losing out on items because I don't have the skills to get things, it makes this approachable because of teleports. Beautiful pixel graphics, controls are floaty but just like original NES games. It's pretty rough, but also has a mode to help those folks, like me, that don't have the time for the hardcore stuff. Even with accessibility enabled it's still pretty tough and a few times I quit and walked away for a bit, but it's just so lovely I had to keep coming back and finish it. Wonderful game if you enjoy classic NES style games.
Anyone recommend any other classic NES style games?
