    Cool, you chose to use github to return optional functionality. That’s a little different from being required to use github so that your latest software purchase can run on your system. It’s not difficult, you’d think a programmer would have a better grasp on simple logic problems.

      I don’t know what this is referring to.

        Maybe proton-ge but again that’s entirely optional. They’re just grasping at straws trying to defend their abusive OS.

      What the fuck are you talking about? No one downloads software from GitHub on Linux unless they’re doing some really fringe, custom shit. Linux users detest randomly downloaded software from the internet (which is effectively the ONLY way of getting software on Windows, btw). We want all software to be managed by our package managers.

      Also, lol on “software purchase”. What software are you buying on Linux?
