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

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...
Who's their biggest rival? Roblox doesn't support Linux either.
Let me rephrase, it doesn’t actively oppose Linux like Fortnite does. Roblox absolutely can run on Linux, even though it’s not officially supported.
Doesn't roblox use an anticheat that prevents the game client from running on linux? I thought nowadays the way to "run roblox on linux" involved using an android emulator.
Use Sober
For anyone curious: https://sober.vinegarhq.org
I'd assume Fortnite Creative
They don't officially support Linux, but they allow the community to continue playing using Sober. Honestly it's probably better that way
Fortnite
