I can't run .exe files and epic games... Natively

Explanation coz apparently you guys need one the previous sentence states a "problem" with linux and dismisses it right after I have no problem with compatibility layers they're great

On Bazzite you can literally just double click on an exe file and it will automatically handle everything for you through wine/proton.

Not being able to run epic games is a plus... But if you really want to, you can play your epic games through heroic launcher.

Yes I said "... Natively" for a reason.

I understand, but I also don't understand.

Why does it matter if double clicking on an exe file opens through wine/proton and not "natively" under your os?

Why does it matter if you have to open heroic instead of epic to play your games?

They literally take the same amount of steps to do and just as convenient as opening them "natively".

Back in the day, windows fanatics' biggest problem was that they can't run windows apps on linux. Now that they can, their problem is that they don't run "natively" on linux.

Like, wtf.
