I don't need to adhere to the FOSS philosophy in the extreme to be allowed to use Linux

[-] Pantherina@feddit.de -1 points 11 months ago

Thats not the point. You buy Games by Developers with limited resources. They dont care about FOSS you could say, in many cases. So you are unsupported.

Linux runs Linux Apps, its Essence is that it is a free OS, that you can trust.

Running proprietary stuff made for other Platforms is interesting but a Battle. It makes no sense you could say.

It makes Sense for Valve, as they save themselves Billions in Windows Licenses and they can make a tailored device. And they sell Games.

For you, paying for Games and then working to make them run, I dont know.

Not that I dont like the idea, but its the job of Developers to make the Games run.

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
