    Your opinion is posited as an absolute: “This is useless”

    That’s not even correct. I said “not all that useful” and then “next to useless”. Never “absolutely useless”.

    The whole point of this feature is to provide something built into Steam that works without a whole bunch of fiddling like other recording software. It currently fails at that on Linux because the implementation of it is half-assed. That is my position. End of conversation.

      That’s not even correct. I said “not all that useful” and then “next to useless”. Never “absolutely useless”.

      It’s a simplification to condense the core point:
      People say “I like this! This is useful!”
      You say “It’s not all that useful”
      I reply “It is to me”
      You double down “next to useless”
      I say “For you maybe, but for me it’s very useful”

      The essence is that it’s not very useful to you, but it is for others. Yet you steamroll over that (subjective) take to double down on how shitty it is.

      It does. It’s a built-in utility to record gameplay clips. That’s neat.

      It currently fails at that on Linux because the implementation of it is half-assed.

      It’s lacking one feature, yes, but I’d not call that a failure if plenty of people seem fine without it.

      That is my position.

      Rich, coming from “You’re wrong when you say it’s useful”.

      End of conversation.

      “I’m right, you’re wrong and I refuse to hear otherwise”

      Alright then. I figured you were genuinely confused and thought maybe seeing the other perspective could help clear things up. Guess you’d have to actually look for that to work.
