@alexandria @eniko my brain broke, it emulates windows, not linux, obviously lmao

@efi @eniko Which is just a wrapper for Wine :p

@efi @eniko If mac users use whisky to play on Steam, are there any factors that may somehow invalidate the play hours or reviews from counting towards the algorithm or whatever like a gifted purchase would...?

@Dreamship @eniko what the fuck? what? if someone plays a game they play the game
if they do it on wine/whisky the OS reported is still the host, not the emulated one

@efi @eniko I just wanted to make sure, I don't know how any of this works, I apologize for my ignorance.

@Dreamship @eniko well, thankfully steam is rather competent when it comes down to obtaining metrics and don't do any obtuse shit like that (which some other services do) so using linux, mac, or a toaster is fine as long as it uses the steam api correctly, which depends more on the game than what it's run on, honestly
