UWP junk also prevents applications from using Vulkan even on Windows.

Quoting: MagamoDOSBox is still under active development. They talk about a release from time to time, but then talk about other things for a while.

Do they have a better repo to report bugs, or they are still using SourceForge?

It seems to me that DOSBox source code is abandoned. It didn't have release in years and still didn't fix the lack of XDG base directory spec.

Quoting: tonRIf GoG is "near perfect" as some people says why don't CD Projekt show us their faith by making their games as GoG exclusively only?

Because it's a disgusting approach which disrespects users. Think about it yourself. Exclusivity means you exclude some potential customers on purpose. It's quite good CDPR aren't doing it for their major releases. Their Gwent is GOG only as far as I know.

Quoting: Mountain Manwhich would kill Linux gaming almost on the spot, unless somebody like GoG stepped in to fill the void, and they've been rather lukewarm towards Linux in general.

Termination of Steam accounts would have little effect, since developers can find other ways to distribute games to Linux users. It's Valve's contribution to Mesa and graphics / VR in general that would be threatened.

Quoting: GustyGhostYes unfortunately if you're looking for AAA titles or popular multiplayer titles for Linux, Steam is currently the only game in town. Too many big studios are afraid of DRM-free. I only keep Steam around today for the few titles that my (unenlightened) friends want me to play with them.

I don't mind skipping them if they are "afraid". They should respect their users and not insult them with DRM. IMHO this situation today is more about lock-in problem than DRM itself. As you point out, multiplayer games tend to be locked into Steam because of their match making and etc.

I don't think we should worry about legacy publishers. Most of them never groked Linux, so we can as well ignore them and let MS eat them for lunch. However MS hurting Mesa development through buying Valve is not a good thing at all.
