    I agree with you that these memes are a little silly, but I also agree with the overall point that it’s actually good that these games don’t run on Linux. It has nothing to do with my personal taste in these games though, and everything to do with privacy violations via kernel-level anticheats, and getting people addicted via dark patterns like microtransactions, gacha, and FOMO-inducing battlepasses.
