Spinneret: I'm making a cross platform streaming app inspired by Streamer.bot

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 18:09

I'm a tiny streamer and have made a few different tools for myself to make my life easier. I then found out about streamer.bot which did most of what I wanted, and even a lot more, but it's windows only, and I tried for the life of me to get it working in wine / lutris, but it couldn't get it stable. I started by trying to reverse engineer streamer.bot and ported it to Avalonia UI, but it just wasn't working well for me. I'm a C++ dev not a C# one and I couldn't stand certain things like the 45 second loading time. So fresh start with C++ and QT6. I've also drastically changed architectures so as many things as possible are plugins like platforms and integrations. I'm probably 3-4 weeks away from release and I'm just wondering what are the most important features the community would be looking for. I also plan to port more of the features over from my previous web app version like analytics, channel discovery stats, revenue tracking, viewer loyalty tracking in the apps database etc. I want to add python, Lua, JS/TS, and Webassembly integrations so people can make their bots how they want. Also I'm not sure if / how to monetize this or if I should just leave it as donor supported because right now I'm unemployed.

Hotkey for FPS limit when using gamescope --mangoapp

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 16:39

I'm using Gamescope extensively in combination with game performance + MangoHud. Now I've realized that using the --mangoapp flag for gamescope provides a more consistent HUD display for Mangohud based on my configuration than using Mangohud separately. It effectively displays the performance information on games that previously didn't.

What I want to know is how I can toggle the limit fps on MangoHud when using the --mangoapp on Gamescope.

What works?

toggle_hud_position=Shift_R+F11
toggle_hud=Shift_R+F12

What doesn't

toggle_fps_limit=F1

PS: I've also tried changing the FPS limit hotkey just in case it was some kind of overlapping with the game hotkeys, but it didn't work.
