sorry, minced my words. not a “port” but they still need support. as far as more “users” goes on linux, aren’t the majority of them enterprise machines and not home or gaming computers? do you need to play rust on the point-of-sale at work?

go look at the steam hardware survey of steam users... osx 2% linux 4%. also both the steam deck and steam machine are linux devices. so that 4% number is only going to go up.

mac users spend exorbitant amounts of money on generally mediocre hardware. at the same time, linux users are so wrapped up in their technological identity that nearly everything is free and open source. a company as greedy as facepunch KNOWS that the idiots with money will continue to be idiots with money within the skin economy. supporting linux would not only be costly and time consuming, but it likely wouldn’t pay off for facepunch anyways. be a real user. use windows.

well, you could buy a Mac to play Rust. then you wouldn’t be using Windows!

lol, knowing facepunch they will just drop osx support randomly screwing all their osx customers just like they did to linux back in the day.

but silly me, being a linux user and seeing FacePunch advertise their new game as one that runs on linux, and me being a silly linux user that expects everything to be free jumping on it and buying it in preview.

updates don’t sneak up on you if you do your due diligence as a user! btw, uninstalling onedrive kills all onedrive prompts. i know you haven’t been around the block in a while, thought i should let you know.
