This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

One day, Linux will be ready for a no-headaches gaming PC. Genuinely looking forward to it.

Its mostly there if your ready to dump your League addiction. Proton Db has guides for the games that don't just work first try and most of the fixes are select a different launch option from a drop down in Steam.

Except games with shitty anti-cheat like Battlefield. Those are just unplayable.

I discovered that Helldivers 1 ran fine on Linux despite having an anti-cheat, because when the anti-cheat fails to launch the game just says "fuck it" and runs anyway. Though other games like PUBG refuse to run when their anti-cheat fails. I love PUBG but not so much that I'm willing to let some shady publisher from the other side of the world run unknown and unrestricted code at the lowest level of my home computer just to play it. That will never be a worthwhile trade.
