I exist, I think
Just staring a loading screen essentially, most games will let you click around on the menu still and look at your skins or your settings or whatever. TF2 lets you queue mid match to find another game so you can play on a community server while you wait, and overwatch does let you do warmup DM last I remember (which was years ago so it might have changed). Can’t really think of anything else another game does off the top of my head.
Just so you know, this is a post on c/general on lemmy.world, not kbin
It’s not really a meme. It’s from c/196, where the main rule is that you have to post something before you leave, hence why everything is named rule. If you block 196@lemmy.world and 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone that should deal with almost all of the rule posts.
Reusing a comment i made a few days ago, “It’s based off r/195, which was a sub where the main rule was that you had to make 1 post before leaving, that sub closed down a few years ago, then r/196 was made to replace it. IIRC r/195 was originally for some peoples apartment, with the name just being their apartment number. Eventually other people joined in because of the rule and it snowballed from there.”
To add onto that, r/195 shut down because the mods didn’t feel like running it anymore as it became to much to handle.
You can run most games on Linux, you just have to enable proton, the steam deck uses a custom version of Linux by default, so at minimum anything marked as playable will work on Linux.
Also I never had to deal with drivers at all when setting up linux, but I’m not sure if that’s normal, I’ve only used Linux mint, which was pretty easy to set up.
