alt Hacker NewsSeems ridiculous, but when their biggest rival can’t be bothered to support Linux… you see why they might announce something like this.

Who's their biggest rival? Roblox doesn't support Linux either.

Roblox has a long history of not supporting Linux, and the game was rendered unplayable for many years. In 2022 it became possible following some Wine patches, but then they began to implement a kernel-level anticheat. Roblox initially committed to keeping Wine working but suddenly went back on that and blocked it without notice. Today, the last remaining way is through running the Android version of the game through an Android container or emulator. The TFA is about stopping this exact method of running the game though...
