Well, shit. Unfortunate news from the Vinegar Discord: Roblox will block Wine in future releases.

This is going to end my “Steam Deck as a primary desktop PC for my kid” experiment.

    I do not know, but the Vinegar people give it straight:

    Also last time around Wine support was broken for like 6 months and no one found a workaround. It was Roblox devs who re-enabled it later.

      God discord admins are horrible. Not even allowing discussion about it, what a coward.

      Fact is if one of the fears is cheating, the best way to combat it is by releasing an official linux client. Otherwise you’re forever leaving an entire base of tinkerers a platform to try and get it to work
