    You don’t. Gamers, are generally happy to bow to their corporate overlords for some reason.

    Source: am a gamer. And I admit I do put up with some of that bullshit too.

      I think that behaviour pattern has it’s roots in the perceived dominance of Microsoft windows in the gaming sphere - we can fix that by encouraging people to game with linux.

        Yeah I was thinking about exactly that when writing this comment. Windows is one of these things I’m currently putting up with.

        I’m planning on building a new PC though, and since I love my steam deck I’m wondering if I should try going full Linux with this one.
