    Doesn’t exist on any version of Windows that isn’t Home, either, and on that you can set your home connection as metered and it simply won’t download updates automatically anymore.

    To be blunt, none of the issues in the meme are really issues at all for the average person, while something like Linux constantly having issues just playing games despite Proton actually will be.

      But some or majority do use Home version. Metered connection is more of a trick than actual off switch for auto updates (bad UI). It means that you have to lie to turn it off, because most people don’t have metered connection (I assume).

      You can blame Microsoft for making it’s OS default on most desktop machines and therefore most devs are making games specifically for this proprietary OS. Steam is doing it’s best to make more and more games available on Linux. Almost all games that I have are perfectly playable on Linux.
