From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

true... roblox said they have plans to try to bring back compatibility with wine but it seems they are not making a version of byfron conpatible with linux
Roblox is the only reason i have dualbooted windows
Isn't grapejuice working anymore? I remember I got it working a few months ago but my kid is not interested in it so i don't know the current status.
Nop
Well, the platform is nice and building a 3d game is straightforward but actually I see most kids just playing shitty games in the end. Better go sketch, construct 3 or others
Also it's a wise choice to dualboot, even if every current game is playable on Linux tho. Who knows which game won't run for you no matter what via Wine when apparently it's Gold/platinum rated on protondb.
