From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I too bashed my head with lutris on some games to the point that i gave up on Linux. Then i tried it again but this time using Bottles and it's working really fine for me, almost flawless.

Yeah I think it's time to stop being lazy and actually learn how wine works, I can't get Warcraft 3 to work

Did you try lutris out of flatpak? I don't know why but this version has less issues. I compared lutris vs bottles and for me the performance of bottles was way worse. (Sadly). Because the bottles ui is much better

I didn't try that version, I just transitioned to Bottles. I didn't notice any performance loss though I might compare it just to see what it's like.

I still wonder what the difference made. I would image, it should be the same.
