      right and wrong, games play nowadays, but good luck getting the same accessibility and flexibility as windows, you wanna download a cool new mod? No problem! Oops but the mod loader is only windows based and gives wine a seizure, you can probably do it, but not without an hour or more of work, not exactly casual user friendly quite yet. And god forbid the game uses a special pheriphal

      No, they are right.

      It took an enormous amount of fiddling for me to get games working on Debian 12

          I agree with you, but it’s just not ready for the average person.

          Case in point: regardless of which version of Steam I install it goes into a crash-restart cycle if I open it from gnome. The only way to run it is to type “steam” in the console.

          The issue persists regardless of whether I use the .deb or flatpak.
