you see i am an apprentice so i don’t have a work phone yet, but i need Whatsapp to communicate with my superiors and all

yeah you see, the issue is, i need Whatsapp for my family, friends and work. i’d rather not use WhatsApp but i aint got a choice (yet, afaik Whatsapp will be forced to work with other apps)

no, i live in Germany

WhatsApp just says i dont have the official version, even tho i got the apk litterally from their own damn website

if you use a web app might as well just use your browser

and i cant even get Whatsapp to run because my phones bootloader is unlocked… life is unfair

Sadly i don’t know, as i am using hyprland.

i use nordzy-hyprcursor via the hyprcursor application

i was so convinced that i had to do something hacky cause its wayland that i didnt even consider that the solution could be an already implemented feature. thank you very much

edit: only that it seems to work with anything else just not soundux

no thats the thing, steam works without a problem. it is only when i do it NOT through steam where i get issues.

but i play mainly on windows anyway, i just wanted to try it out a bit out of boredom and got surprisingly good results.

i just wait how the windows kernel restrictions influence kernel level anti cheat, and depending on the result i may switch to full linux again if kernel AC breaks and devs are forced to use “normal” AC again

Yeah it’s just games🤷 if push comes to shive i can just reinstall 'em i was just confused by the difference in behaviour depending wether the system or steam mounts it

This could very well be the anwser. there are in fact c: and z: in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/0/pfx/dosdevices

although i couldn’t find an indicator that those are actually in use when launching a game through steam

Ah ok i think i get why it doesn’t work through the auto mount, but i still don’t understand why it works completely fine if i mount it through steam? What is different when steam mounts it?

I am running arch and Firefox and i can confirm i am miserable.

I love it tho

I only use vim.

i have been trapped for 2 years now… hope seems pointless
