Crash reporting

it's a swole doge vs cheems meme
on swole doge side, there are two popups: kCrash and Ubuntu apport. Both have options to see detailed logs and an optional button to send report to developers, along with options to close the popup.
accompanied is a text that reads "Here's the information. What do you wish to do?"
on crying cheems side, there's popup for windows and mac. windows has just a cancel button with report being sent already. mac has ignore and report button. there is no option to see logs without reporting on both. here, accompanied text reads, "let's add this to the personally identifiable information we have on you."
I'd love to switch to linux. But I love the video games, and I'm a pirate, because I'm broke. Until Linux gets real support for games, I can't join.
With proton, Linux can play almost all games just fine. Is it 100%? No. But it is good enough to no longer make that an excuse anymore.
what game can't you play on Linux ?
Basically anything with anticheat either isn't supported or it breaks consistently.
Isn't anti-cheat mostly used for multi-player games, which usually won't work when pirated anyway?
Idk, I don't pirate games.
Dual boot or vm or use proton. The steam deck uses Linux and uses proton. I haven't had a game not run smoothly while using proton either.
I tried dual booting for a while but eventually I just stopped using the Linux side. Didn't really have a reason to switch over when everything worked fine on Windows. Id just keep using windows after I used whatever software or game only worked on windows cause it was just more convenient. I did really like Linux and there were a lot of really cool things about it but until Linux reaches a point where all the big games, both on and off steam, work on Linux without having to follow some guide I just don't think it's for me.
@WarlordSdocy @ExperimentalGuy
I have the same and opposite issue.
Part of the reason that I am always using #linux is because so much of my workflow these days requires Linux, that when I play something like a #bethesda game (modding them is just less of a hassle on Windows) it just feels wrong and uncomfortable.
Exact same thing here. Once I needed to reboot multiple times per day to use my computer I’m just angry and unhappy with the tool that’s no longer doing the job I need it to.
Since the games I play are primarily windows only, I stuck with the side I spend most of my time in.
Just use Bottles or Heroic Launcher to play the pirated games on your computer. Most of the games I tried have worked.
The only exceptions are Multiplayer games like Apex and valorant. Apex is not smooth enough to play competitively (last I checked was a few months ago) and Valorant doesnt work on Linux because of it's rootkit anti cheat. If you only play single player games Linux is definitely worth a shot.
If it weren't for a few Multiplayer games and my crappy epson printer I'd have completely wiped windows off of my computer.
