This reverts commit 24f0bdd. Pretty sure Mint users would like to use Lutris.
Lol what's the story behind this? Why did strycore removed it? |
This does not prevent Mint users from using Lutris. This is the second time, I've removed the Mint logo from our download page. The first time, I chose to remove it myself. The second time I was asked by a team member if we could remove it. With the number of issues that arise from this distribution, I do not feel like we should promote this system as something that can be used with Lutris. There are a good number of Ubuntu based distributions for which the PPA instructions also work but aren't featured on the download page. Those Ubuntu variants have a good chance of providing a better gaming environment than Mint and yet, those don't have a logo on our website. |
What issues are there with Linux Mint? Don't really see a reason for it to be removed. |
Most likely related to this https://files.catbox.moe/nya3zb.jpg more than anything related to Mint distro itself (at least "first" time). Other than that, I have no idea, but I am certain the person who removed it would be nice to provide with examples of issues that are related to Mint more so than other distros, or it might seem like my guess was correct. |
This is one of the most completely ridiculous statement I have heard and I will not buy into your menacing tone. |
The only thing "shit" about all of this is having a FOSS project used and maintained by a community stating in its project commit history to a distribution, used and maintained by a community aswell, to "fuck off". |
It seems I've hit a nerve. Well, whatever your personal issues are with Mint, don't pretend they are in any way objective and specific to it, especially with naming a commit "fuck off" - very mature. |
I've stopped having personal issues a while ago, that was when I first removed Mint from the download page. But now, after not caring about Mint one last bit for years, I get asked by a team member to remove it again. If I am to put the Mint logo back, then I need to be assured that it will stop confusing the people who give their time to help others troubleshoot issues. I don't want to hear stuff like unexplained bugs that go away when switching distros. If there are indeed things that are causing those issues, we need to find them and implement checks and error messages in the client to prevent them from happening again. |
I've received additional negative feedback about Mint which comforts me in the fact that we shouldn't further encourage its use. |
