Oh gotcha, I see what you're doing. Samsung Calendar (I use the S24 Ultra) has 2-way syncing with GCal. Everyone else is on iOS and they all have Google accounts so GCal was the easiest way to handle it.

I have shared calendars with family and friends that I need to keep using.

I want to make the jump from Google apps but I can't because I use GCal heavily and Proton Calendar doesn't (yet) sync to GCal. I can enter in something in GCal and it'll appear in Proton Calendar, but I can't enter in something in Proton Calendar and it shows up in GCal. Hopefully they add that soon.

I had this years ago when I was in IT and had the on-call pager. We rotated it around the team so in had it every 6 weeks or so but it sucked hearing it go off in the middle of the night for some random server issue.

Tell me about gaming on Linux. Most if my gaming is via Steam and I have a Steamdeck which I know runs on a flavor of Linux so it can be done. Is it fair to say that any game that runs on the Steam runs on Steam Linux?

I just got a new prebuilt with Windows 11 Pro and I've been curious about Linux for the past few months. I know the variations have gotten better over the years but haven't done too much research into it. I hear Mint and Arch quite a bit.
