There's a lot of blog posts and news articles being written right now centred around Microsoft's plans for updates to Windows 11, and potential kernel changes, with some thinking this means big things for Linux gaming.

Sorry to say, but I'm here to bring a more realistic take and to help keep all your feet on the ground.

quite relevant to yesterday's discussion.

It's interesting to see that Linux has gotten popular enough that a few of the most user-hostile devs are going out of their way specifically to stop people using it. Other than ignorance it's unclear what their motivations could be. I for one will remember the names of the studios that do it and try my best never to buy or talk about their games.

I wonder if anyone has compiled any data like that to show who is going out of their way to break Linux compatibility. I'd love to avoid publishers and/or devs that specifically use such anti consumer tactics.
