@gamingonlinux @lutris Linking to a pirate website for indie games hurts the indie game developers. Linking to a cheat website hurts the rootkit developers. I can see a difference.

@mkljczk @lutris you don’t gain respect and get people to listen to you by doing stupid shit like this

@gamingonlinux @lutris But this is not to make game publishers listen to Lutris devs. This is intended to inform the users that invasive anticheats sacrifice user privacy and OS compatibility, while not doing their job too well.

Though a link to some YouTube PeerTube video covering how kernel-level anticheats still get bypassed might be a better idea. But someone could say that this still encourages cheating anyway.

@mkljczk @lutris you do not need to link to a cheats website to inform users, that’s just ridiculous

@gamingonlinux @lutris So they should claim that cheats exist and are easily accessible without providing evidence?

@gamingonlinux @mkljczk @lutris
But if you claim something (here that anticheat doesn't work), you should share a proof for that.

The same as you share research papers when you want talk/mention about them.

@garbulix @gamingonlinux @lutris They could provide link to this video. I haven't watched it yet, so not much to say about it, but I see it got quite popular in the Linux gaming community

@garbulix @mkljczk @lutris Not everything needs a direct source link, honestly this is basic level common sense for stuff that can do harm
