Almost a year ago I decided to try GNU/Linux and I absolutely loved it, however there was thing that as a novice took me time to get running: Visual novels. Now after some time reading and trying I can run almost every VN on wine, and I must say that there is no better feeling than getting things done, I can enjoy GNU/Linux at 100% since I can play VNs with textractor, it took time, but it was worth it ! :D

    Did you use anything on top of textractor to translate? Does it work well on wine?

    Been a while since I last had a setup for this (no time lately, playing a few English translated titles on steam) but it was on a dedicated VM with win xp.

      I’m currently using textractor + yomichan (in the browser) to learn Japanese, when I play a VN textractor sends the text to the browser and there I can use the yomichan dictionaries. Here’s the guide I followed for that https://learnjapanese.moe/vn/ It works without problems

        Aha, I’ve worked with this a few years ago on windows, glad to hear it can work in Linux as well. I will try it out when I get more time. Thank you.
