Sounds like you are missing the firmware repo that was added as part of the 11 -> 12 migration.

You've obviously never been to England

And why is Roku the only one implementing a Universal Search algorithm? Can't the platforms get together and do this outside of a single vendor's device? I just want to go to the web and type in the name of a movie or show and see what platform it is even on - because nobody remembers.

The only problem is that it doesn't include Netflix in the search results, due to some spat they had a few years ago

It's just an electron wrapper around the PWA, but it works much better than the PWA.

I'm using an old version of KDE/Konsole in Debian 11 (Konsole reports itself as 20.12.3), and both of those features work for me. Have a look in...

Konsole Settings -> Profile -> Edit Profile -> Mouse -> Miscellaneous
Konsole Settings -> Thumnails

Have you seen some of the weird shit available on the Nintendo e-store? Admittedly this is third party content, but Microsoft said "offers a broader range of mature content than Xbox", not "offers a broader range of mature content than Microsoft".

The payment thing doesn't bother me too much.

What is really annoying is that any free Vita games that I have claimed via PS Plus have stopped working since a few days ago (purchased titles still work fine).

When you try to run them, it throws an error saying you must re-download the game. Attempting to download the games throws up the same error code.
