I agree with everything here, but this was at one point the case with pancake gaming. I’m not saying that we deserve it, but it’s always been the tradeoff with Linux. I’ve never gotten a Linux system running with the expectation that it will work 100%. I admittedly essentially dropped my use of VR when I switched, but it comes down to a cost benefit analysis.
I just made the choice that an OS that wasn’t fully functional was better than an OS that didn’t respect me as a user. I’d much rather things not work in good faith than to have a working product progressively made worse for financial gain.
I’ve never gotten a Linux system running with the expectation that it will work 100%.
I only expect an OS to do what it was designed to do. I was so happy when steam went full crazy on proton, all of my flat library works like a dream, only 30 or so games, my VR library is over 100.
100% I do know of (and was well aware before my move) the limitations, I used linux in early 00. The way flat games are today I see VR being similar in 5 - 10 yrs (we are a small community overall and even smaller on linux). We WILL get there because the “real gurus” will take us there, I has faith and patience. Until then, M$ can harvest my streams and VR gameplay (I have stripped all apps, files, and flat games from my windows install and I only play for 2hrs at a time 5-7 times a week)
