<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux" class="u-url mention">@<span>gamingonlinux</span></a></span> is there any chance to get some statistics from these companies? Something more than &quot;linux open, cheats bad&quot;?<br />I would really like to take a look at these. Without any data it just feels like empty marketing words to me.</p>

<p>Obligatory pumpkins. This year going for the cute vibe. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/halloween" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>halloween</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pumpkin" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pumpkin</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/darktable" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>darktable</span></a></p>

There&#39;s an additional hurdle if you&#39;re from a country other than the US. You&#39;re led to a website with a banner and a round blue button that says &quot;Continue&quot; in your language, and if you click it, it leads to an error shown as a raw JSON string.</p><p>Rather than clicking on the button, scroll down to the bottom of the page. Bottom left corner should have the country selection list. Pick the US, and that should automatically reload the page and lead to a success message.</p>

<p>I will admit that sending the kid out in the car alone to a party with a new license on Halloween might be questionable parenting. On the other hand the text &quot;Dad, I made it and successfully parallel parked&quot; might override it.</p>
