I couldn't get a full list because I was relying on having set a flag forcing a specific version of Proton to identify which games were problematic to jog my memory... Unfortunately this data is local only and was not synced between computers, so it was lost when I changed distro. Just from my limited memory though, I can list some that I distinctly remembered when writing up my post, though it's many more in reality. It's also surprisingly hard to see whether a game even has a Linux native version, you usually have to wait for the store page to load and scroll down to compatibility, which is just annoying.

I'm getting tired and I'm sure you get the point. Almost every game in my experience has been unplayable on Linux runtime. I'm glad it's working well for you though.
For now. After the stunts Sony pulled I wouldn't trust them at all. Imagine if Steam silently removed even some tools or soundtracks you purchased but never listened to? Instantly all the trust is completely gone. Even if a game is never deleted, it feels like a threat, because it is
You're the only other person I've met with the same issue. I even made a bug report and forum post and complained everywhere, everyone said I was crazy lol
It's better than most fonts, but not as easy to read as OpenDyslexic for me personally.
Actually funny story you reminded me of, when I worked as a programmer, my boss got mad when he saw my screen, because the flagship product was "ruined" by my browser forcing the dyslexia font. He told me I'm not allowed to use that font anymore or even zoom in because that's not the "average user experience". I just pretended to agree and made sure to have 2 different browsers with different settings, so I could pretend to be using the normal font if he came by. I also remember people would ask my opinion on Google fonts like, which one should we switch do for the main app??? And I'm just like (internally) it all looks like the same shit to me haha
It was pretty immediate. I was like man this is ugly, but when I actually tried it, straight away I noticed it was extremely easier and faster to read and I made much less mistakes. Like normally I misread words and letters and numbers a lot and reread the same line over and over and words just look like identical blocky shapes. A lot of the time I actually just guess what word something is based on length and context, which kind of works but not really. But with that font I can read normally.
I only even realised I might have it and got it investigated when I accidentally changed the font to OpenDyslexic in Kindle because it was just there, and then I'm like, ok wow I didn't even notice how hard it was before 😂
I kept having this really weird problem in Valheim. It would run perfectly fine, running at 140fps. Then, randomly, for no discernable reason, after 15–90 minutes of playing it would suddenly and without warning enter what I call "lag mode", where it would just tank down to 8fps and become unplayable. The only temporary fix was to restart my PC, which was extremely annoying when playing with friends.
I would just endure the lag when doing housekeeping. Making homes and buildings, making equipment and potions and portals, etc. Then when it came time for an adventure or boss, I would be like, ok brb guys, restart my PC, and hope we killed the boss before I got hard CC'd and taken out by poor performance.
I couldn't find any explanation for this anywhere, I tried everything to fix it. Years later after patches it was still an issue even with a brand new OS, but it was isolated to my PC. My only guess was it was a memory leak or something unique to my setup. It kind of sucked the joy out of the game.
iPhone doesn't have any dyslexia fonts, and I can't see an easy way to install one unfortunately. I'm planning to ditch Apple in the future but that's a while's away. I know apps like Kindle and Royal Road and such have such options for custom fonts anyway, so I thought it would be cool to have the same option here.
I remove my own upvote from my comments because I like things starting at 0.
Also, billions eat fast food every day, doesn't make it good for you. I've tried all the A.I., because I believe in order to hate something, you must understand it first. Claude kept trying to do everything for me, even when I didn't want it to. As a hypothetical example, if I asked it to explain a math problem without giving me the answer, it would give me the answer anyway. I don't want something to help me that much, I like doing things mostly myself, with some assistance if needed. It causes damage to your skills, independence, and sense of value and worth in your work, if something is just like, "hey let me just quickly trivialise your entire idea and do it for you".
From my experience every single A.I. is toxic or weird or subtly damaging to interact with, without exception. There's just something unnatural about the way it communicates.
I won't blame anyone for using it, that's their own choice. But I really try not to for my own health.
Run Escape felt like one of those games that was a brick wall to get into. I think only people who were nostalgic for it and played it originally actually still like it lol, or maybe it's just not for me
Yeah at first it looks hideous, but also every letter is extremely distinct from each other, so reading actually becomes easy for me. Of all things, comic sans is also a very good font for dyslexics. I'd rather have something ugly that is legible.
In my experience that just changes the "flavour of badness" rather than making it actually good. For example, if I made it "direct", it would incessantly nitpick everything I say and tell me I'm wrong and stupid constantly, even when I'm absolutely correct. It would just make up fake facts to prove me wrong. So basically Reddit argument confidently incorrect mode. I'm not surprised people get psychosis from those things, it's probably about as good for your mental health as interacting with narcissists.
I hate the way A.I. condescendingly talks down to me like I'm on the verge of hysterics, and then butters me up to try and make me feel good. It's so manipulative and gross and practically negging + love bombing. I try to avoid interacting with them if possible.
