I doubt that literally is a significant concern.

When I can't join others is when I hear confusion as to why I use GNU+Linux, and disappointment when I refuse to use Windows to play a certain game.

Been there. They coolly suggested "why don't you dual boot?".

Windows literally cannot be run on my CPU architecture.

What CPU architecture are you running? Windows supports x86 and ARM.

RISC-V surely can’t run any games?

cpu		: POWER9 (raw), altivec supported

But lately just a mix of DS emulation, Arx Libertatis and Minetest. Boring maybe, but it's what brings me joy.

I have a buddy who kept asking me to install windows in order to play one of those rootkit games. Had to disappoint him every time. No fucking way am I doing that. Fuck that.

I'm trying to cut back on proprietary software until I'm only using free software but I make a small exception for some games (usually bought by friends, or to play with them).
