There is a 3p https://archlinux32.org/

In Poland there is a payment system called blik, and it’s not a company, but more like a protocol iirc. The blik provider is literally your bank, so no external platform to give your info to. Although, I’m not sure whether it doesn’t share your payment information, since I don’t really know how it works internally.

Huh. I use Arch (obligatory btw) and iirc I just installed steam and it worked. 4th gen i5 with an rx 480 and things like Elite Dangerous run fine, the problem starts with UE5 but that’s a hardware issue.

How do you know? Are you some kind of wizard?
