2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I'm looking at you, ubisoft (feddit.org)

    Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

    It always reminds me that genshin is playable on Linux with proton (at least in 4.2, and I didn't even tested wine). It's just the launcher that doesn't work. They are just so close yet so far

    It is fully playable? I play on Linux with HoyoPlay and I have absolutely no issues?

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

    I haven't booted it up since 4.2 but I do know I didn't had any issues. You just need to start from the game exe instead of the launcher

    There's "an anime game" project to workaround the launcher and anti-cheat. Was fully playable when I used it a few months ago, but I did have to change to Proton GE or something else to fix some graphical glitches.

    Also, no guarantee your account won't get banned.

    AAGL, it works great, but 'going around the anti-cheat' is no longer true, since the mHyProtect is working just fine on Linux

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Huh, since when? I did check the project wiki and it still says there's a workaround for anti-cheat, but whatever. Nice that it's working better on Linux since I last checked.

    Since 4.6 or something like that, don't remember exact But the anti-cheat with even HoyoPlay is working fine on Linux, even ZZZ worked out of the box right on release
