I don’t care who’s fault it is that hardware probably won’t work, just that it probably won’t work.
Setting these games up is an undertaking even when all the software and hardware works as intended. Hell, just pulling the equipment out of it’s storage is enough friction to keep me from playing sometimes.
Even after more than a decade of using Debian as a server, I don’t have any confidence in my Linux knowledge. So the proposition here is tons and tons of homework with no guarantee that I can find a workaround or cobbled together solution. What I can be guaranteed is that if I get everything working, it’ll be a slightly to moderately worse experience.
Again, I’m not saying Linux is bad or even at fault for these issues, but these issues exist and I it’s valid that some people don’t wanna deal with it.
You don’t know that these things issues exist because you’ve never tried it.
You even admit at times you’re too lazy to even set these things up.
If you have a highly customised setup you need to accept some responsibility for it and not expect others to test it for you.
Not the person you replied to.
I mean that’s all good and fine, but it’s still off topic at best?
They’re valid problems to have, but no one here asked you to. Yours is a root comment.
It’s not an airport, there’s no reason to announce your departure.
