    I would recommend for people not to install W11 just for a tiny handful of games. Most work on Linux. If they want to specifically add things to make it only work on Windows you shouldn’t reward them by following along. Find better games to play.

    The longer people play along with their game the longer they try to force people onto Windows. Until they are forced to support Linux you shouldn’t support them.

      Yeah, well… When the kids want to play Valorant with their friends, it is hard to tell them that thats too bad, because they dont support Linux.

      Thats a noble principle but it doesn’t really work when the game is an older or somewhat obscure one without much developer support left. Especially online games that have some fuckery preventing them from running via proton/wine.

      I know it’s more of an edge case, but theres dozens of us holding onto some shitty 20-year old MMOs
