closed source spyware, trash
Local linux user discovers video games
https://libregamewiki.org/Main_Page
I know of it, but the vast, vast majority of games aren't open source. A lot of them aren't good in comparison to other games, like the Linux community loves bringing up Super Tux Kart and it's just... Bad...
Just because they're closed source doesn't mean they're spyware. They just want full ownership of their work and being able to profit off it.
