its fucking bullshit. GabeN is the only person to be trusted as far as games on linux goes, seeing as how he pushed valve to support linux even at a net revenue loss because of it (please dont make me find the earning reports please)
blizzard doesnt, hasnt, and will never care about linux because they dont even care about their windows user base as shown with all their other games and policies (remember that time linux users were being banned from overwatch?)
im truly disgusted. first microsoft starts pushing superfluous shitty standards onto the mainline kernel, then stallman makes a fucking fool of him self at a microsoft conference like he thought he would convince people to stop doing the thing that provides them a fucking job, and now blizzard once again erroneously takes a huge heaping shit on linux users. im so fucking tired of this abuse. the linux community needs to go back to being a more closed, unwelcoming group- Linux has the base, we own every server that matters, we run on literally 100% of the top500, massive tech companies invest millions into it, we have games now thanks to GabeN, WE DONT NEED MORE FRIENDS.
linux doesnt need to be the timid friendly OS anymore because we dont need to attract more users, Linux was never meant to be the everymans OS, its a power user OS- and while i support low barriers to entry including a gentle learning curve, the layman should not ever be the focus of linux, MacOS has that totally covered.
the more people push for "the year of the linux desktop" the more companies become interested, the more trash gets added, and more opportunities arise for malicious companies (see microsoft) to take jabs at our weak spots in an attempt to split / damage the user base.
