@eevee I am choosing to read this as the setup for a silly "I drink it all the time" joke rather than accept the reality that you have to say it because people are presenting it to you like the problem isn't that companies simply refuse to treat Linux as a valid target platform for literally anything

@demize it's great because the two main categories of offenders here are "companies with billions upon billions of dollars" and "indies making their game in a thing that literally has a button to click to make a linux build"

@eevee "just run it in Proton" cool suggestion, the cool indie game I just bought that literally runs on one of the Big Two engines just straight up won't boot through Proton! :)

@eevee lol i don't think i've ever run into a case where i *wanted* to use wine instead of being vaguely resigned to having no other option

@eevee Yeah, if I'd been using Linux as my daily driver for 20 years I'd be an alcoholic too. /j
