I’ve been using it through wine for two years now, using this repo. It works surprisingly well, sometimes there’s some flickering, but not enough to prevent me from working. It gets a bit slow to react on big assemblies, though that might also be the case on windows. logging in is a pain, luckily that’s only every 1-2 months (you need to log in on the homepage, copy the login id and run a cli command with the id, within the 30 seconds before the id expires. Usually takes me 2-3 tries because i forget it after 2 months). it not seeing linux drives and having to copy files from/to wine’s drive_c is a bit annoying. but overall it’s good enough, haven’t booted the windows partition in those two years and I’m willing to deal with this to be windows free. But if i had to use it professionally as a daily driver, that would probably be different. I did have to reinstall it twice in the two year period, though.

    That repo seems to have just been archived though. That would worry me if I were starting to use it now. But I’m using it on windows, on my game machine.
