How to update DXVK and VKD3D-Proton in Proton and GE-Proton
If you're curious how to update the version of DXVK or VKD3D-Proton used by either Valve's official Proton or community versions like GE-Proton, here's what you can do.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
VKD3D-Proton bug fix v2.14.1 released for Direct3D 12 to Vulkan translation https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/vkd3d-proton-bug-fix-v2141-released-for-direct3d-12-to-vulkan-translation/

VKD3D-Proton bug fix v2.14.1 released for Direct3D 12 to Vulkan translation
VKD3D-Proton, the tool that Valve's compatibility layer Proton uses to translate Microsoft Direct3D 12 to Vulkan, has a new bug-fix release out now.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Nextcloud, this is kind of assholey. No, I don't "value low cost over root access to the machine." I value my time and my data. I don't have the knowledge to manage security threats to my own machine (therefore pretty much all of my family's data), opened to the Big Wide Internet, and I enjoy the fact that the environment (e.g., SQL+nginx etc.) is set up and managed by my host, so I don't have to become a sysadmin to have a low-budget, self-hosted dropbox.
*Edit*: Nextcloud has been great and also a huge hassle. Upgrading is always (ALWAYS) a multi-hour or multi-day process for me, and there are constant headaches with little things that don't work (e.g., authentication with my mobile sync app, for some reason). I'm already considering paying #proton for some stuff, so I think in about February, if I can't get my major NC hassles fixed, I'll just ditch it once and for all and use Proton Drive, which seems secure and easy to use, even though it's not #FOSS. I really don't have time to go get a second degree in systems administration right now.
