    tbh. the only thing holding me back from using linux on my daily driver, is anti cheat support. If faceit had a linux client, i would jump immediately

      I think that’s a fundamental problem: A tool like faceit takes freedom from the user away. If it was open source (i.e. modifiable), it could lie in favour of its owner. Since Linux is open source, a good programmer could probably get Linux to lie to the tool to send the wrong data and therefore allow cheating. Controlling the user requires a system the user has no control over :-)

      Faceit oof, need full access to your pc, refuse to let you use features of your pc and you have to strangle them during a gdpr request to make them finally hand over data. Shame how they fell, but they have that market share advantage.
