      There are people who play Roblox. Would you rather they only have the option of playing on Windows?

        Yes this game isn’t a game, it’s a online working platform for kids in disguise. It should not be even legal in the first place.

            Well if you’d rather nobody plays anything on Linux then you obviously have something else in mind so it has everything to do with this. You’re the one insisting that it should only be used for some other purpose.

              I think you’re lost. My point was that of course we don’t need Roblox on Linux, we don’t need any games. So why draw the line at Roblox?

                Well the way you said “we don’t need to play anything on Linux” implies that you’re against the idea, my response was asking what you’d be doing instead. I’m not lost, I was wondering what headspace you’re in that you’re against that entirely. However it looks like you meant it in a purely literal sense. Most games aren’t exploiting children though, so that’s why I’d draw a line there.

      No one said we need to play roblox on linux. We WANT to play roblox on Linux because its our computer and we want the freedom to play what we choose and not be arbitrarily limited by an asshole game studio.

        You should stay on windows then, it’s very popular… Kids should stay on windows, it’s very popular with them. And we should never refuse something popular to kids obviously…

        You’re missing the point, please go read responses I made to the others answers I’ve got.
