    From the thumbnail I’m not sure if the guy is RedHat enthusiast or recruiting for ISIS

    My main issue is that I play games that have crossplay with Xbox and my friends do not want to use Discord on Xbox, so I need a system where I can use Xbox Live even though the games themselves would run on Linux just fine…

      You can use party voice chat on your phone (Xbox app) while playing the game on your Linux PC.

      Most distros can even connect to your phone via Bluetooth and you can mix the audio+microphone into your PC headset.

      I’ve done this before in KDE Plasma and it worked seamlessly.

      That’s insane that your friends won’t switch to using a very convenient (frankly, better) system of communication that works best for you just because they don’t want to. If Discord didn’t exist on Xbox that’d be one thing, but it does and it works well.

    Similar to this guy I haven’t used windows to play games for around 2 years now. I have around 30-40 games and I haven’t found a game that doesn’t work, yet…

      I had one game not work at launch (The Finals, which just hadn’t updated its anti-cheat) but none now I don’t think. You can check ProtonDB to see if a game will run, but I don’t even bother anymore. Everything does, unless it’s from China sometimes or has kernel-level AC, which I’m happy doesn’t work.

        Seems instance-specific. Videos on other PT instances embed fine, but neither of the ones posted from this one work unless you go directly to the video page.

    I was wanting to get Path of Exile 2 working on my Linux computer. Are there any guides?
