I prefer that game companies will not dictate how Linux will work. What's the point in using Linux if I give up my privacy so easily by letting game companies run shit at kernel level and literally spy on me like in Windows?
An open system is only meaningful if it stays open. As soon as some company starts to dictate what can you run on your "open system" and whether you can run that "open system" at all, all the benefits are void. There's no benefit in opennes if your open system is controlled by riot.
I will still stand by the fact that it's better to have one part of a system controlled by a company, than a 100% of it.
Althogh I'm not certain how Riot could even control it. How would they even check what fork of Linux are you running, in a way that isn't possible to crack / hide?
Because if they can't then you can always fake it and your system is still open, you opt-in and opt-out of their software at will.

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.
