Question: Where is this Linux icon from?
Introduction
The icon at /img/icons/buttons/linux.png looks amazing, and I wanted to use it on my website.
My efforts
I looked in the branding page and found the list of icon packs used, then proceeded to find them (the packs aren't linked, only the authors, and Google search rarely reveals the pack itself) and look through every icon in them to try to find that Linux icon, and got nothing.
I've searched Flaticon and Freepik enough (for both "Linux" and "Penguin" that I've come to the conclusion that this icon is not on those platforms.
My current theory is that this icon was created by you (DAGINATSUKO), but I have decided to ask here as my last resort.
Why
This icon looks amazing. Unlike every other Linux icon I've ever seen, it goes for a more minimal approach and really gets a nice, modern feel while still communicating the classic penguin.
I've looked everywhere, and no other penguin or Linux icon seems to have a design like this one.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I don't know why I wrote so much stuff, this would've probably been sufficient:
But I do like writing, so please forgive my long issue.
I hope that you could tell me where you got this icon, and hopefully it is under a license that would allow me to use it on my site.
Thanks, Alex_Sour
linux.org License Violation
As stated in #82, the license of the Linux logo on the downloads button from linux.org is not allowed to be used.
https://www.linux.org/threads/linux-org-logo-licensing.40445/
This is a problem.
My suggestions:
Missaligned span "build-tx2-label" in index.php
I didn't feel it was necessary to make an entire PR for 1 css change and I'm not sure it's the optimal change either. Edit: Tested it on both a 4k-monitor and 1080p-monitor with the same issue on both.
RPCS3 main site or github changelog history Pull Request link
When an RPCS3 new version is released some users open links from https://rpcs3.net/compatibility?b in section Pull Request thus opening an link to changes for an download release. If user wish see all changes for previous versions need open an link for each Pull Request.
One address link showing all versions changelog is an good solution and is better to read. Thanks for read. Have an nice day.
Register rpcs3.net to take donations from Brave Rewards?
Brave Browser basically has a feature that lets you donate to websites. However, in order for a website to receive donations, they have to register in the program. Thought this would help RPCS3.

ci: auto-optimize images
To deal with the tidious process to optimize images, I suggest to use a Github Actions workflow for pull requests. Why ?
Add LibRay link to QuickStart (for Linux users)
LibRay is a Python application for dumping and decrypting PS3 discs, which seems to work really well on Linux, and does not require installing Mono or Wine like the current suggested tools in the QuickStart. Should be an easier and more convenient option for Linux users.
Consider Replacing Download Button Icon
I'm on ZorinOS and when I saw the Windows icon on the download button I thought the website is not detecting my UA string correctly and thought it was a bug. Apparently the icon changes every second or so but it was a bit too late for me to realize that as I had scrolled down, trying to find if Linux is even supported (I was in a bit of a hurry so didn't read the subheading)
I suggest replacing the dynamic button icons with an RPSC3 logo or detect the platform from the UA to avoid confusion.
[Request] Add drive to the compatibility list
LG Slim Portable Blu-ray / DVD Writer Model: WP50NB40 ROM Ver. 1.03
Used 13xforever's PS3 Dumper, then manually verified the IRD with PS3-ISO-Rebuilder 1.0.4.1 to make sure.
Bad performance score in https://web.dev/measure
I tested RPCS3.net in https://web.dev/measure and this are the results: https://lighthouse-dot-webdotdevsite.appspot.com//lh/html?url=https%3A%2F%2Frpcs3.net%2F
As you can see, RPCS3.net has bad results in performance. I don't know why this happen but I thought it would be a good idea to mention it here so that you can get over it :)
[Request] Add compatible Blu-ray drive to quickstart
I have a model of blu-ray drive that isn't listed as compatible in the quickstart guide, but I've dumped my whole library with it no problem:
Lite-on/Phillips DS-6E2SH19C
Its a slim laptop drive and 19C is the revision.
