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.

If a engine would force me to use a specific chrome based browser I would switch the engine...
That sounds like hell my friend.
It’s only to verify my license. Don’t need to use it otherwise unless I want to post the projects I make on their itch.io clone storefront, which I don’t. I have windows dual booted on its own harddrive so I’ve just been using it there. Would be nice to phase out windows on this use case without having to learn a new engine entirely.
I don't know your exact use case, but I suspect that learning Godot might be very worth it. It's a really intuitive engine.
I’ve heard good things about it. But I’ve also heard that vibe coders are trying to get a lot of slop code into the engine. Hoping they keep that out.
I mean, you can have a look at recent merged PRs. With proprietary engines, you just don't know.
