      Here’s an example of activist journalism done right. The writer takes his editorial flamethrower to Epic and the industry at large, while including complete primary source material. This arms the reader with facts and opinions from which to form an independent judgment.https://twitter.com/TheChrisWray/status/1142219471043670016 …

      Timmy, some people just don't like change. Whether it harms or benefits them is irrelevant. They'll fight it either way. Looks like a Mac geek vs a Linux geek arguement. Just finish your store.

      Actually I think WINE is the one hope for breaking the cycle. If most PC games were automatically compatible with Linux, it would greatly increase the viability of Linux as a consumer platform.

          So... why aren't you investing on Wine to make it possible? 🙃 Valve is doing it just now making 1000's of games playable on Linux! 😁

          Cool Tim, so in this case you cleary agree with Valve. We'd love to see epic invest in some devs to help build wine/proton, open up that consumer platform. Having more native games would also increase that viability too - glad you're on board! #gamingonlinux #Linux

          I'm glad that we'll see EpicGames contributions to WINE in the near future then.

          Would Epic be willing to add Linux support for the EGS and include either Wine or a fork of it (like Proton) to make Windows-only games easier to run?

          Most of the ones on Steam already are thanks to Proton.

          Does that mean you'll be including Proton in the Linux build of Epic Game Store and contributing to Proton?

          That explains why you have so much Wine support on your launcher... oh, wait. I'd also like to point out that "PC" is "personal computer", not "Windows computer". Linux is a kernel for PCs (and servers). If you're going to pose as a competent person, you should do it properly.

          So you're saying that I should only buy from Steam/Valve if I want the best game platform for PC for Linux? Thank you for the insight
