I have a buddy who kept asking me to install windows in order to play one of those rootkit games. Had to disappoint him every time. No fucking way am I doing that. Fuck that.
I’m trying to cut back on proprietary software until I’m only using free software but I make a small exception for some games (usually bought by friends, or to play with them).
Nah. It’s just projection. Even though I use Linux myself, it’s nearly always the other way around with the lecturer trying to tell Windows users to switch to Linux while the average gamers are just happily gaming away on what works for them.
Hell, you could take many of the comments in this post and turn them into things the guy on the left is saying while Windows gamers are having fun.
Are there people telling linux folks to stop enjoying linux gaming…? I say ask as a linux person
I doubt that literally is a significant concern.
When I can’t join others is when I hear confusion as to why I use GNU+Linux, and disappointment when I refuse to use Windows to play a certain game.
Been there. They coolly suggested “why don’t you dual boot?”.
Windows literally cannot be run on my CPU architecture.
What CPU architecture are you running? Windows supports x86 and ARM.
RISC-V surely can’t run any games?
What games are you running on this?

But lately just a mix of DS emulation, Arx Libertatis and Minetest. Boring maybe, but it’s what brings me joy.

Maybe I’m vain, but I posted a post a couple days ago celebrating my success with Linux gaming. So many games are like here.
You know it’s not ready for VR yet. yeah I played VR for about a month 4 years ago and that was enough.
You can’t play games with anti cheat personally I don’t play many of those, but obviously if you do that will play into your decision
Anyway, people are always negative about everything, especially against things other people like
For real though I’d like a VR system (modern) that can use the steam store natively.
The SteamDeck subreddit is full of Windows shilling.
The Finals subreddit during beta was full of complaints about SteamDeck users asking for them to allow Proton.
There’s def a vocal minority out there that will die on the Windows horse, infected with rootkits and all.
No. I visit there frequently, 1 in maybe 50 posts are about Steam Deck running windows.
Its not the posts its select few in the comments section.
