Meh. There are so many instances that I don't really judge someone by what instance they're on; I judge someone based on what they do.

Pshh, hardly.

Make no mistake: things can always get worse.

They cancel each other out, collapse into a black hole, and rip apart the Universe. /j

I've been using Linux Mint for the last 1–2 months (or so) and one of the things I miss the most is how on Windows, games just run (typically). Now, on Linux, one of the very first things I do upon wanting to play a new game is check the ProtonDb page. I am not always able to play the game I want. There's often not even any ProtonDb page for a lot of older games, notably in my case Jazz Jackrabbit. (For example, even though the Jazz Jackrabbit Collection on GOG has a Linux installer, for some reason it won't run.)

Make no mistake, I ain't never going back to Windows for my personal use if I have anything to say about it. The sense of personal security I feel from not having my every move be captured, scrutinized, and sold by Microsoft is way too important to me. If I can have that feeling of relative comfort by forgoing a few games, it seems like a worthwhile price to me.

Nevertheless, the "plug-and-play" nature of games designed for Windows is something I miss.

First, I appreciate you taking the time to provide your thoughts on this even though the post is 2 years old. :)

Second, no worries. I've found an option. I just use MakeMKV. I even bought a paid license! It's that good! ;)

I appreciate you explaining this to me. :)

A decent explanation. Thank you. :)

I heard Tuta is a honeypot. Is this not the case?

Not OP, but dear gods thank you. With how scary the US is becoming, I genuinely needed that laugh.
