He doesn't seem to realize the reason nobody uses his Linux build is because it runs like utter ASS.

He even made a snarky comment to that effect.

I think he meant to say 17 people play from Linux, but it's still sad. Linux is superior to Windows, if only devs wouldn't be such scumbags about it.

He also thought no one needed mouse inversion as a feature in rust.

There are not enough gamers there sadly. EVE pulled support and so did many others. It just wasn't worth the cost. The future for Linux lies in engines such as Unity and Unreal where they can deploy to multiple platforms. This requires the developers to do nothing while giving games to Linux users at no extra cost.

I see. Well if it's only small things, then he should support Linux. Why? Because I agree with him, the user base is tiny right now. However it would grow (I know this firsthand as I would be one of them) if there were more offerings or promised offerings at least.

This is changing, but Garry, unfortunately, will not change with the times. He has his Windows gamers, though, so he'll be alright.

Damn it Garry, you're going full Phil Fish on us. Dial it back a little bit here.

I get all the hate against him, but if developing for linux is adding development time and cost (which, let's be fair, might not be worth it because of the small user base), I understand stopping support for it.

Developing for multiple platforms can be more difficult and costly if you're incompetent and chose stupid technologies, both of which plagued Rust.

If no one is buying it on linux don't sell on linux. I feel like he is face palming for himself.
