  • Yep, Unity DE had ads. Then people revolted and Canonical eventually got rid of them and also switched to base Gnome with some extensions.

    It definitely happened, I saw it in real time on my install of Ubuntu. But they learned their lesson on this one, I feel.

    Not sure why there are some who think this is still a thing, though.

    Side note: I’ve not run Ubuntu as my desktop OS I’m quite some time, opting instead for Garuda as of late and have seen no ads thus far :)





  • Good luck. My experience with vfio is that it works…ish. There are a lot of compromises still, depending on what kind of setup you really want. I’ve effectively said now that if the game doesn’t work on Linux (which now, like you mentioned, is anti-cheat-related), then it’s not worth playing. Windows Recall was enough to finally break me of this “Windows safety blanket” that I’ve had for 25 years of trying to game on Linux. With Proton and Glorious Eggroll’s ge-proton, everything effectively just works. And one day, all this anti-cheat nonsense will be a thing of the past.
