Yeah I can't play rainbow 6 siege since I switched to Linux but I'm staying strong. Fuck ubisoft. And fuck my friends for trying to make me go back to windoz.

The fact that it even supports vulkan, and BattleEye has a Linux version, they just don't use it

They just don't like linux. Even if you run it in a VM with VFIO they will still ban you.

And, that their UPlay (Don't care aboyt the rename) launcher is probably one of the other companies, useless launcher which work the best via wine.

And apex legends started randomly banning Linux users again, how hard is it to fix the game that earns them millions of dollars every year? Unbelievable.

[-] alphapuggle@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Because they're not earning those millions from users. I have no data to back this up, but I'm sure even the Linux users that do play are less likely to spend money on the game.

Off topic but your username looks different in my inbox. It says Nate here but in my inbox is says alphapuggle. Btw I'm using eternity for lemmy might be a bug on the app.

Weird. I show up as Nate on my end too (using sync). Not sure why it's different than everyone else but my username is alphapuggle@programming.dev

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
