    ITT: folks who think Linux is too complicated or whatever, but are perfectly willing to jump through endless hoops to work around some of Windows’ deliberate hostility.

    The Stockholm syndrome is real.

            sure, Steam workshop works even identical
            otherwise the game data paths are different

              Steam workshop works even identical otherwise the game data paths are different

              So if I understand this correctly:

              The games files inside the game folder are the same, therefore when you apply/load a mod into the gamefolder it works the same correct?

              If thats the case, this is the straw that makes me migrate to Linux. I currently have AMD CPU and GPU (because fuck nvidia, even if AMD is not that much better) and from my understanding they should have good drivers in Linux

                the biggest difference to Windows gaming is that for Windows games on Linux played via Proton every game gets its own Proton/Wine prefix (basically a windows folder structure)
                ifyou want to use mod manager you need to run them inside the game specific proton prefix

                Steam Tinker Launcher simplify this process
