      You don’t. Gamers, are generally happy to bow to their corporate overlords for some reason.

      Source: am a gamer. And I admit I do put up with some of that bullshit too.

        I think that behaviour pattern has it’s roots in the perceived dominance of Microsoft windows in the gaming sphere - we can fix that by encouraging people to game with linux.

          Yeah I was thinking about exactly that when writing this comment. Windows is one of these things I’m currently putting up with.

          I’m planning on building a new PC though, and since I love my steam deck I’m wondering if I should try going full Linux with this one.

        Because it locks you out from even seeing the mods and stuff if you don’t have an account. Old time forums were better.
