    Just… renamed. There was a massive lawsuit, which Microsoft lost, but they settled on buying the Lindows branding for $20M.

    But the project lives on.

  Linux doesn’t support as much software as Windows. The big line for me is that it can’t run Destiny 2.

    On steam? With wine on Proton I run Helldiver 2 out of the box. Same with Elden Ring and many other titles. The only ones that have given me issues is Epic. Which really isn’t a loss lately.

      D2 just doesn’t support Linux. They probably could, but it is how it is.

        Proton lets you run games that don’t support Linux. Idk if it’ll work for D2, but it’s got a great track record for me so far on my Steam Deck.

    That’s absolutely true. That said, it supports Dwarf Fortress really well, so you should be set.

    What are you talking about? The fact that you can’t run D2 on Linux is the BEST feature.

    (Jk of course, play any game you want the the free time you get)
