Don't believe Youtubers trying to create drama to gain more views! Don't fall for the baseless speculations!

Linux gaming is getting better every day, and it will continue to get better 😎

Since it created such turmoil, the link to UnknownCheats has been removed from the disclaimer on kernel based anticheat games.

What are some popular online games that do not have abusive anticheats that are very competitive. I can think of Counter Strike 2, Overwatch 2, Street Fighter 6... any others?

Trying to find some ammo against games that do ship with an abusive anti cheat
