Can we stop beating a dead horse? There is no Linux desktop market. The year of the Linux desktop isn't here, unlike mobile. Microsoft isn't interfering in anything, there just isn't good business incentive for Linux desktop gaming. Linux desktop gaming will take off when Linux desktop usages takes off, not the other way around.
In fact, if you want to take aim at anyone it should be NVidia and AMD for Linux driver support.
- shmerl 6y agoSounds again like something MS would say. Could you drop this condescending tone? It's not helping your arguments. There is Linux desktop market, including for gaming. Check your facts. It's a smaller market, but it exists even if you don't like it. I'm saying it as someone who buys Linux games.
- tomnipotent 6y ago> Check your facts I did, actually, seeing how I'm the only one of us providing any numbers or research. You're trying to appeal to emotion, and it's not working. Businesses have decided not to jump on the Linux desktop market, despite you feeling entitled to their services and labor.
- shmerl 6y agoTrying to debunk this demagoguery is a waste of time. I'll continue being part of the Linux gaming market, and you can claim that it doesn't exist, while whitewashing anti-competitive behavior of MS and the like. That's totally going to convince anyone who can look at actual stores that sell Linux games which supposedly shouldn't exist according to Linux deniers.
