1.8x faster startup than Steam*
1.2x faster from the background to your library than Steam*
Yeah sure that’s definitely the problem with steam glad that Tim Sweeney fixed that for me, I’m so ready to ditch steam now.
I hate marketing bullshit.
It’s also a vibecoded mess and they’re literally advertising it as such: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:k6kg5ccozcphfcmp4zyx3s64/post/3mxtzp6xtwc2u
Legitimately I’d suggest ditching it entirely, or at the very least removing any financial or personal info from your account, because this shit just screams “massive financial breach” in 3-6 months tops.
Sounds like Epic achieved perfect feature parity with their Windows launcher.
Beyond all that… AppImage? Fuck that’s what they’re going with, really? I get that it’s platform agnostic or whatever but it’s literally my least favorite way to get an app delivered to me because it’s so fucking opaque. I know that’s probably an unpopular opinion, but I do, I hate AppImages. It feels like the lazy assholes way of committing to Linux support when they’re a giant corporation. This isn’t some guy coding it all on his own in his basement for no money because it’s open source. I can live with that because that guy is just one guy and maybe doesn’t have the time or resources to pack it five different ways. But a company that big? Go fuck yourself, Tim Sweeney.
I didn’t even think of that but honestly yeah that’s kind of insane LMAO
Like I have no problem with appimages for smaller tools, and at least things like Shelly make maintaining them much easier nowadays, but for something like this, what the fuck
It doesn’t even come with a “shopping basket” (function).
I swear my local LLM could have written this mess in less then a day.
Somebody’s late to the party.
Somebody brought poop as a present
Aaaaaaahhhh Sweeny swine dude. How the turns tabled. He came back like the little bitch he is. 😂😂😂😂. And now since it’s way too late, watch no one from the Linux community touch this trash.
100% agree, I don’t think I’ll ever use Epic store because of the way they decidedly sabotaged Linux in the beginning.
Can I play competitive games like Fortnite?
Yes, once you’re in a game you’re good to go. All of the services will work as intended, and there’s nothing that would prevent casual or competitive play.
It’s good seeing more popular games adapt to Linux by adjusting their AC.
Nb: Appimages are toxic. Ask a security person.
Non-binary? How are appimages toxic? Are you a security person?
Don’t post that and not explain.
Why not just download and upload image or do screenshot, instead photograph?
Not a photo
I see. I thought the effect is some reflection, because it is blocked on my system. I’m sorry for the confusion.
I agree it kind of looks like that, It’s an absolutely horrible screenshot, that was taken just as the worst screen effect was active.
Seems like they’ve removed it too?
