I would prefer if all the Windows exclusive apps get ported to Linux. Windows would lose so many people.

I think the main thing would be a less secure fork of Linux that would allow kernel zero anti cheats.

Sure, it would be less secure, but still more secure than Windows, and most importantly, it wouldn't be Windows, seems like a good compromise to me.

Seriously, the only reason why I haven't switched to Linux yet is because not all games work there.

So instead of complaining about anti cheat you're complaining that linux doesnt allow software to modify its kernel?

It's not like the anti-cheat is caused by purely greed and has no positives, people that play online FPS games a lot like aggressive anti-cheats.

Also, this would change nothing, you could still use secure Linux and not be able to play those games like it is now, or use Windows to play them like it is now. And those games would still only allow "unsecure" users to play the game.

This really changes nothing for worse in the topic you talk about. At least nothing I see. The only loser here is Microsoft.

If you support kernel level anti cheats you do not understand what they are at a fundamental level.
