@nixCraft@mastodon.social I've been exclusively buying games on Steam, because they are Linux-friendly. I don't care about anyone who doesn't care about Linux. I will never buy Blizzard games for the same reason. And I will never get game on Epic (not even a free one), because I despise their opinions.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social hopefully it doesn't also just chmod +x every file it manages like the standalone installer's launch scripts do...

@nixCraft@mastodon.social One of the more happy news this year, buying a lot more games from them recently, little Europe support I think is needed, also in the end, if something stupid happens because of the orange diaper baby I still have some games to play.
