Lackluster Linux Links
Your January 2022 edition had a feature on how Windows and Linux were finally playing together nicely. It’s correct in that you can now use Linux programs in Windows, but just don’t expect it to work the other way around!
This is particularly annoying for me, as Linux is my preferred OS for 95 percent of my needs—the main exception being gaming. I've tried Steam and Proton on Linux and neither are good. Why should I use emulation to play games that should be supported out-of-the-box?
Of course, I understand that game publishers might not want to invest in the coding required for a different operating system, maybe because they fear there aren't enough Linux gamers. But this is a chicken-and-egg scenario, where the audience won’t show up until there are more games to play.
However, I suspect there must be an enormous number of Linux users like me
