2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He’s running Windows 7 right now, so I’ll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

    You didn’t stop buying games when they killed XP support. They announced at the begining of this year (at least by March 2023) that they were dropping windows 7 support and you still kept buying.

    Why do you keep doing the same thing but expecting a different outcome?

    Stop spending money at places you claim are anti consumer. You are the problem. You. There are other companies you could support but you want to keep funding Steam while crying victim.

      All this because I said valve should have a legacy downloader so people can still play the things they bought that dont work on modern OS’s.

      Something that would cost valve, a multibillion dollar company, almost nothing in the grand scheme of things.

      But apparently caused so much offense, that you’ve sat here clawing your hair out at the sheer audaciousness the comment.

      You really need to go outside and take a few calming breaths and realize how fucked up it is that you are this defensive over criticism of a company that doesnt give a single shit about you.

        He says, as he defends why people should be forced to continue support for his preferred operating system corporation.

          Yes yes, a legacy downloader that doesnt effect you, is such an egregious and evil thing and totally deserving of this crazy, borderline mental illness reaction you’ve sustained.

            And upgrading windows affects you how? It’s a free upgrade isn’t it?

            Doesn’t windows 8 have legacy compatibility modes? Why aren’t you upset with Microsoft for not having proper compatibility modes still?

            Why is Valve the target of your anger when Microsoft is the one deprecating the OS and not providing the compatibility they advertise?

              And now we’re to the point where you keep repeating the same arguments and demanding the same answers, in an attempt to make the other person walk away so you claim a pathetic “win” and strut around like a high street cock.

              I’ve been on the internet a long time, friend. Your tactics are not clever, or new.

                I haven’t asked why you wouldn’t upgrade before, nor about the broken compatibility features included with Windows.

                Direct your anger at the company causing your issues (Microsoft), not the one that hurt you because you couldn’t figure out hardware acceleration with remote play.

                  Yes, I’m clearly the one full of anger here.

                    It shows in your dozen posts refusing to take any of the many available paths forward.

                    Roblox runs on the latest windows, you’ll be fine.
