    Wayland, works better with games. Unless it’s star citizen, then x11 because it somehow breaks the elevators

      Gaming isn’t a valid reason. You wan’t games, use windows or a console. Don’t waste a perfectly good linux system.

        Linux gaming has come to the point where many publishers and developers literally add Wine support intentionally and the game consol with the biggest game library of all time (Steam Deck) uses it but we still have people like you… If you want to use Windows you are free to do so but Linux is a great option by now too!

          Wine is a shim, a workaround, not true native Linux support. Don’t care if ‘they support it’. Support native Linux, instead. Don’t give a damn if it makes their job less easy, you either really support Linux or you don’t. Black and white. No middle ground. Wine is being apologetic for Linux being Linux, which is unacceptable.

              No it’s not. You are saying you are fine running a program not made for Linux on Linux. That in no way promotes the growth of Linux. It promotes a kludge, a culture of ‘good enough’ for a pile of dog crap that is going to break sooner or later. No wonder Linux can’t gain ground on the desktop. It’s frustrating as hell to watch for year after year after year.

              Can you run games on proton / wine? Yes Should you? NO! Demand better!

                Nobody cares.
                The majority of devices run Linux already. All of my games run on my Linux system through Steam. I don’t give a fuck what the back end looks like, and game developers aren’t going to release separate versions for multiple OS’s.
