Well, shit. Unfortunate news from the Vinegar Discord: Roblox will block Wine in future releases.

This is going to end my "Steam Deck as a primary desktop PC for my kid" experiment.

2 big reasons I've seen.

First is idiot csuite/suits at the top who think linux = haxxing and they somehow lose business by supporting them.

Second is kind of true, that people have trouble running on linux and go to official forums asking for help, or leave negative reviews that they couldn't get it to work, which isn't fair to the developer.

Wasn't it unofficial support? The kind of "at your own risk" stuff linux users get from everywhere.
