    I mean…the code isn’t copied but the design is and it honestly frustrates me. Like yes Linux performance is improving…but I personally don’t like adding kernel functionality specifically for the benefit of wine

      Why? Lots of people are using wine.

      That’s like saying we shouldn’t be including modules for reverse engineered hardware that only benefits that company

      I honestly welcome it. It brings up a lot more than just games in the future like MCAD and maybe even more creative apps.

            interesting, worked in cad/cam and arch viz but never ran into it called mcad. always specific applications like catia or autocad, onshape etc… assumed it was an application name

              There’s also ECAD software for electronics. I believe a lot of product teams use both ECAD and MCAD. The former for designing the circuit board, the latter for designing the case and any moving parts.

      The game supply is built against those APIs. If games are to be played on Linux it is necessary to adapt to the games until Linux is big enough that games change for us.

      Well, luckily, you can personally have a kernel without that functionality
