    Except it’s still hell for online games with anti-cheat. Just about every other month, another article comes out about “Linux players unable to launch…” or “Linux players banned from…”

      Valve is actively funding alternatives to those anti cheats and also working with them to get Linux supported. Its just not happening overnight.

      Idk, I see this argument every time this discussion comes up but I’ve yet to experience anti cheat issues. I don’t think they don’t exist but it’s been extremely smooth sailing for me

      anti-cheat software will adapt, or it will die. I will personally never use a game with an anti-cheat that has full kernel access.

    • Both easy anticheat and battle eye have support for Linux native and proton, it’s just down to the developers of games to enable it

      Without windows more developers would likely enable support
