How do you even block wine? It's a compatibility layer? Even if you block it someone will just add a fix to get around it eventually won't they?
I do not know, but the Vinegar people give it straight:
Also last time around Wine support was broken for like 6 months and no one found a workaround. It was Roblox devs who re-enabled it later.
Why does that post sound like: "Fuck off! ...and do it nicely without causing a fuss...please.
Because it is. They are telling paying customers to get stuffed. I was planning on putting Linux on my daughter's PC but with this she will never let me. Only computer left in the house with Windows on it. :(
Just in case there is any misconception: this particular post does not emanate from anyone at Roblox. This is the Vinegar team closing shop and giving context. Vinegar was an open source project which made it easy to run Roblox on Linux.
Roblox Corporation is the one telling a (likely very small) portion of their paying userbase to fuck off.
