Recently, i had to move from nixos to windows against my will simpy because of anti cheats. While i dont game that much, the few games i enjoy playing are all online with some kind of anti cheat. I used to dual boot but i was tired of having to wait for my slow hdd to load windows (i only have one ssd). I literally used linux for everything else but because of anti cheats i am forced to move to windows. I managed to make it a little better by using wsl2 and removing bloatware but it will never be the same as linux

    Yup, and it’s a fantastic option. AFAIK, that’s what Valve uses for CS:GO, and while it’s not perfect, it isn’t intrusive and largely does its job.

      That’s not even what I was referring to. I’m talking about full anticheat server-side. Waldo Vision

        Interesting. Most of what I’ve seen operates on inputs, like whether aiming is too accurate or the player moves unrealistically fast.

        But I’m in favor of anything server-side, we really shouldn’t be trying to make the clien more trustworthy.
