      Anticheats on Linux don’t have kernel access… Have you ever heard of people needing to type their root password to launch a steam game before?

        Yeah, I know. I’d like it to stay that way. Furthermore, this is also why games with kernel-level anticheat still don’t work on linux, despite developments in wine/proton.

          We don’t need kernel-level anti-cheat, because the bigger ACs already support Linux. The developers just have to allow connections from Linux clients.
