We can call it HATE, yeah. There’s not a day when this OS is not my way.

Basic, plain Windows 10 Professional installation, nothing fancy. If it was not the gamers, it would have died long time ago.

      I don’t think there could possibly be a logical reason to be against gaming on an specific OS other that they are just against gaming personally.

        I don’t want to prevent people to game on Linux, I just don’t see this “community” as something good for a community (FOSS) based on effort, sharing, helping.

        Gamers are illiterate about computer (beside RGB LEDs timing), and the worse behavior online (Gamergate someone?)

          Well tbh that just describes almost every group of people, most people don’t know fuck all about anything and want things to “just work.” That is why Apple products are so popular (in addition of course to their advertising team successfully making iPods and iPhones a “status symbol.”)

          Tbh I think as these things go on they make people less tech proficient, most kids these days only know how to stream and torrenting things is “too hard” for them.

          I for one happen to like gaming on Linux, because it means I don’t have to use windows just because I want to play morrowind, I can just load up openmw and start casting spells. Furthermore just because gaming is possible on linux now does not mean anyone will necessarily switch to it without another reason to if they are technoligically challenged, many see linux as too hard anyway, or just want the plug and wait, er…I mean plug and “play,” that windows supposedly gives them. FurtherFurthermore, with the ability to customize Linux to your hearts content and a multitude of good distros from which to choose, the caliber of users should minimally effect you, if at all.

            There are also very good games for Linux, not all of these seems pixeled 1990 sidescrollers, for Exmpl. this one, OpenSource and multiplatform, that has nothing to envy to commercial games.

            Exactly, and even those lowly (/s) people should be able to enjoy GNU/Linux.

              calling people illiterate because they play video games.

          Your comment reeks of prejudice and ignorance. #notallgamers

          Gamers are illiterate about computer (beside RGB LEDs timing)

          I literally studied computer engineering and still play computer games. I think at least 70% of my classmates back in uni did.

          and the worse behavior online (Gamergate someone?)

          Every decent person and gamer dislikes the Gamergate people. I specifically know several leftist hardcore gamers who would dismember a Gamergate troll if they ever laid eyes on one.

            We are on lemmy, so it’s obvious that most of you know computers. I don’t think you game 4h+ a day.

            Anyway
