I don’t know so much about EGS, but probably some of the following (most of which I don’t use very often, I hope I recall correctly)

• Refunds
• Family sharing of games
• Sharing games for other local users
• Being able to lend games
• Remote Play (with friends)
• Remote Play (stream for a local machine)
• Linux support through proton
• probably more?

Freecad is getting more and more attention. When version 1.0 releases (soon), it will be something worth checking out, but there is still work to do.

It depends on the use cases. I don’t like how this post makes it look like the “Linux” alternatives are drop in, one-to-one replacement. Inkscape has been immensely useful to me, but for professional work, it might not be a reasonable replacement.

It was always under my nose, but I never realised it was there. Thanks for the tip!

The gnome news in this channel are likely sourced from planet gnome. They also provide RSS links :)

As a first step, I would recommend checking out osm.org from a computer. Once logged in you can use it as an editor straight from the browser. The embedded documentation really helped me initially.

We are working towards having a product properly packaged. This is a prototype that is not mature enough yet to justify the cost/time to package it. Moreover, this custom chip is used to measure ultra low currents (down to femto amps), so any packaging could potentially interfere with the measurement capabilities (-> no epoxy). It is however protected by a large shielding box, but it’s no use during assembly/modifications :/
