Yeah here’s to hoping these game devs/publishers get their heads on straight when we all move to linux and stop playing their games because of lack of support.

That’s the thought I use to cope anyways ;(

I’m lucky all the apps I use worked on linux when I swapped over, native or otherwise (through wine).

Sounds like if you fully migrated over, you’d have to give up quite a lot of software and relearn different tools, which is probably close to impossible (given the ones you listed).

Hope the Windows 11 transition is at least a smooth one for you!

They don’t have to, I was simply providing a solution to a problem they don’t have.

If they want to, but can’t because of they decade old configurations, this solution could ease the process or allow them to figure out if it’s even a possibility.

Basically just letting them know they can try it without destructing their existing Windows setup.

Pretty much every online competitive game cuz they all use invasive anti cheats and scapegoat linux as the cheater platform.

CS2 is the only outlier that I know of (VAC is server side mostly & CS2 is native anyways so). Probably some other games that are linux friendly too, but 99% are not.

Slowly switching may be an option for you. You could always dual boot a Linux distro alongside your current Windows install.

Then once you have Linux running with all your apps, etc, you can see what you’re missing from your Windows install and if you can move stuff over, etc.

You could even try it in a VM, see if you can set it up in a VM to how you like first before doing the whole install, may or may not be a bit easier (easier in the sense that you can directly compare whatever you do on Windows with the Linux install in a vm).

Yeah pretty sad. It would be a much more useful feature for me on mobile.

On desktop, I usually just create a new window for different types of stuff.

No easy way to organize my infinite tabs on mobile (as far as im aware).

Chromium browsers on mobile do this, but it’s also a bit weirdly complicated/frustrating to work with at times, I hope of Firefox get to it, they can make it super simple.

Thats messed up if u can do this without consent of whoever you are tracking.

If you are gonna do this the right way, with consent, there’s probably free apps that can do this (not sure if there are any privacy friendly ones though, but I believe iphones have a tracking feature that’s free).

$10/month is scammy, but they know their target audience ig (abusers probably, like you say).

I had go look up mixue and I now crave ice cream and tea. The hot and cold combo must be amazing. Possibly the cure to brain freeze.

The recent duckduckgo ad campaign will surely help rescue googlers and so does my mission to ensure everyone I know doesn’t use google search.
