> This is simply not true. Most anti-cheat software does work on linux, but many games choose not to allow linux.

Iam not sure if I care whether the AC software does work (theoretically) on linux. Most of the games with AC cannot be played on linux. (You can see this on the graphic you linked).

I tried it long enough. I played MTG Arena with lutris and every patch day was a frickle.

I don't even play FPS games seriously, let alone competitively, but many of the games I play don't run on Linux. It's that simple. I've been using Linux daily for 25 years, but I have a dual boot with Windows. A week ago, I taught my NixOS to boot with secure boot because the new Battlefield requires it—and other games will follow.

Don't get me wrong, gaming on linux still has many sharp edges and anti-cheat is definitely one of them. I just felt "almost all (if not all) games" was misleading, and some 40% of the games with anti-cheat are indeed playable on linux.
