Should be obvious, why do we have to mark sarcasm these days?

Linux@programming.dev•Steam’s June Client Update Brings Proton Default on Linux
3·7 months agoLinux is not getting exclusive builds anytime soon, in our lifetime I’d wager. So Windows builds would still exist anyway, so it would make no difference having native Linux builds, it would only be a bonus. Besides, if Linux somehow eclipses Windows to a point developers don’t support Windows anymore, then I’m sure there would be compatibility layers or whatever built to run old Linux games on newer hardware too.

7·7 months agoAbsolutely. You are right, the initial uptake is more important right now. Most of the Linux market share on Steam is the Steam Deck right now.

2·7 months agoWhere’s the source for that? Every statistic I can find puts Linux at about 4% (never above 5 in history) and specifically for Steam, it’s at 2.69%.

5·7 months agoYeah, but I mean when making a decision to natively support Linux, it becomes more likely to skip it as “proton can just handle it”.
So it’s likely we won’t see more native development until Linux desktop adoption is much much higher.

14·7 months agoI’d like native builds really, but this kinda discourages that. Then again though, with tiny market share Linux has, it’s understandable devs don’t support it natively. It’s also good to not have to manually enable Proton everytime too.
Oh and I suppose this helps with adoption, one less hurdle for someone to jump through to just play games from their library.

Tech@programming.dev•BBC threatens Perplexity with legal action over content scraping
4·8 months agoDidn’t the UK just pass a bill allowing AI companies to use copyright content for free? The BBC should have been covering that bill more instead of constant articles about poor israel suffering.

Wait until they rename Windows to CoPilot!
