Hey guys, I’m just an ordinary dev looking for something to work on. While messing around with my hobby projects, I couldn’t help but notice that under the surface, there are a lot of places that the libre desktop can be improved. I’d like to take on your suggestions on what I should seriously consider working on and helping out with.

Thanks for any comments and suggestions.

(For those wondering, I’m still working on my other stuff.)

    not something a single dev would be able to easily do.

    More importantly, not something a Linux dev can do. At this point it’s a decision by the game publishers to actively block the game from running on Linux

      the question is: can we talk it out? what do the game devs have to gain from the game not running on linux? could the game being able to run on linux boost sales slightly?

      this topic is really about being reasonable and not immediately bursting out into “big company bad”

        They don’t think it’s worthwhile to devote manpower to testing whether the anticheat engine works reliably on Linux. If Linux users can circumvent it, it ruins the fun for the majority of users. The safer option is to cut out 2% of the market.
