I bought an expensive PC just to play my stupid my 3D Steam games. Windows 11 is barely even fit for that now. Even installing it wants my email. Why?? Can’t get a vertical task bar like I used to (have they even seen monitor screen dimensions since 2000?)
Then that dude from Microsoft comes out on HN and says they don’t even care to improve it/can’t improve it because of project manager career aspirations. Makes total sense. I guess they’re gonna profit from Teams or some shit instead of windows.
I suspect it’s just a matter of time before they just rebase on top of Linux. Never thought it’d see that.

I'm gaming on Linux multiple times a week and it's been a few years since the last major compatibility problem with the stuff I play. Maybe check out the compatibility database: https://protondb.com https://protondb.com - If the stuff you want is all Gold and Platinum (like for me), you should be good.
- l41n 3y agoI've had good experiences playing a lot of my games but sadly some of them just don't run at all because of anti-cheat BS. It makes me really angry that some companies go out of their way to make sure their games don't run on Linux. I'm glad that at least all of my favorites still run perfectly.
