• C drive keeps filling up, I’ve cleaned up disk many times and ran many antivirus scans. It just keeps filling up. Any help?

• Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage

  I use this tool all the time! On my Windows boxes, I use an old tool called "Scanner" that presents the results in an interactive pie chart: http://steffengerlach.de/freeware/ I've used it on everything from Windows 10 to my Win98SE oldschool gaming box. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• List of my favorite (10+) windows 10 programs to download (in my opinion)

• I wrote an app for myself to filter my library by HLTB

  I've done something similar before with Playnite (an open-source PC game library manager), which has an HLTB plugin. Source: 5 months ago

• Tags no longer register and i've finally had it with galaxy 2.0. Any recommended alternatives?

  Playnite: The one with the most features and libraries available via addons and has a lot of options for customization. In my opinion the best one available for this purpose. Source: 5 months ago

• What tools do I install?

  As for my LGO, the only other app I've installed outside of the standard launcher was Playnite to consolidate all games into one place as Legion Space doesn't detect everything I have installed and I don't want to manage manually adding games to their launcher. Source: 5 months ago

• Login in to various stores when launching games

  Use playnite instead of the individual launchers. Source: 5 months ago

• Steam Deck OLED

  Here is where I come in and recommend everyone check out Playnite: https://playnite.link/ When I care about supporting a developer or publisher and they offer their product on their own storefront DRM-free, I will often go there to buy. Or I buy from GoG which takes a smaller cut. Playnite lets me launch my Steam and non-Steam games in a seamless fashion. Steam still does a great job as a game installer/patch... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
