    Just pointing why it’s not as easy. People don’t want to go cry at game devs/companies that Linux is not supported. They just want a plug and play solution. It’s like telling people to buy a different brand of car, but they cannot use it on the same roads they usually drive and then say: “go cry to get that resolved”. No, I’m not going to take a different route home, I will just use the car that makes my life easier.

      Yeah, but on the other hand it is really annoying for us linux folks. Those games can run on linux as most games do with Proton. Some gaming companies are actively fighting against linux users and are even banning them. And then in every discussion about linux someone is showing up and shouting “I can’t use linux, my games don’t work, linux sucks”.

      So like telling people to ride a bike, or use public transport, with the obstacle being that the city is built with car-friendly infrastructure that’s hostile to pedestrians and bikes? Yeah, sounds like an analogy alright ;D
