I see your point, but I fundamentally disagree; I think it’s the perfect place to make such suggestions because it’s a community where that approach may not be the first idea.

I also think it’s the perfect place to make such suggestions because you’re guaranteed to have different opinions and outlooks, thus generating productive conversation… if everyone is mature and respectful which in this particular example they were not.

I don’t think I need to explain to lemmy users how to bypass paying for Windows lol

You’re paying a few bucks to ensure maximum compatibility for the games that you love to play, this isn’t rocket science.

I wasn’t telling anyone to do anything, I was merely making a rational suggestion that would completely solve their issue Jesus Christ you people are insane.

I hate to break it to you, but that is not at all what I said. People join that community to talk about gaming on Linux, myself included… not to piss and moan about not being able to game on Linux.

You are actually the kind of person i see people complaining about in this thread, getting extremely defensive and aggressive when someone has a different opinion to you/challenging your beliefs, thus echo chamber lol

I was getting absolutely mocked the other day in the linux gaming community suggesting people install Windows on their machine, rather than whining about counter strike 2 not running on their LinuxOS.

Yep, should be standard everywhere

… for accounts you actually give a shit about

Great resource, but the last 10 or so were just re-worded examples of what was already demonstrated.
