It’s almost like the good ol’ days of install fests and the like! ‘End of 10’ is an organization that’s making it easy for Windows 10 users with computers that can’t upgrade to Windows 11, to install Linux instead of sending good hardware to the landfill.

Games with kernal anti-cheat should be treated with precisely the level of respect they show to us.

Yeah some anticheat works. OK GAMERS LISTEN UP Linux is being cock blocked by companies. Anticheat even kernel levels have Linux support it's time to start a movement to enabling anticheat Linux support. Some anticheat the company only needs to send a message and they haven't sent the email. Let's start a witch hunt for all these companies so they can send the email or enable it.

Nah. Anything that says "yes, kernel-level anticheats will work here" - I will be out. To the point of LFS and offline games only, if need be

Kernel level anti cheats that enable Wine/Proton support doesn't actually run in kernel mode on Wine/Proton. Instead it allows itself to be run in user mode provided that it likes the environment enough. And maybe RDTSC latency isn't too high?
