Mozilla is such a terrible company, really sucks that they are the only alternative to chromium based browsers, and they still suck as a company.

This is why we need a community maintained browser, something that is made by the community and for the community. Where those maintaining it aren't insulated from the community's wishes. Mozilla is insulated from them and that's a big problem for the future of Firefox, and anything else they make.

It's pretty crazy Valve can give a game a Steam Deck Playable rating, give it a special banner on the Steam page to note it's a most-played game on Steam Deck....and then the developer can just add anti-cheat, not enable it and tell people it was never officially supported huh?

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

- rockstar press hasnโ€™t replied
- their support team just copy pasted the new FAQ entry to me and washed their hands of it
in reply to Leandro (Cerberus1746)

@cerberus1746 yeah, Valve really need to have an opinion on this. It's a top 10 game on their console platform. They can't be laissez faire on this. They care about their customers in other ways, so this is the same. It really undermines the Steam support levels.
in reply to Bakunin Boys

@bakuninboys @cerberus1746 I have contacted Valve, waiting on a reply, and I will be doing a further article to discuss the situation but have to wait on Valve for a reply (or no reply) and see how long it takes them to update the Steam Deck rating too
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

Honestly, this is why I use GOG to buy my games whenever possible.

As long as I have the offline installer backed up, I know my game will continue to work as expected.

To people who keep saying Microsoft are removing kernel-level stuff, it won't solve the situation, which I already wrote about:

gamingonlinux.com/2024/09/micrโ€ฆ

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

It won't solve it directly, but if win32 games are forced to abandon proprietary kernel anti-cheat in place of some kind of standardized Windows API, then potentially that API could be implemented on Linux/Wine.

A lot of other things need to fall in place for that to happen, though. I've been wondering what Valve were going to do about this for a while, I've speculated that maybe SteamOS could ship with a signed kernel, secure boot, remote attestation and run games in secure VMs?

@seyon I'll just point again, to the article of mine i linked you to, everyone is wrong on this, developers don't need kernel-level to block Linux, it means nothing for us
