i've been on byond for about 13 years about, this is my first post. I'm not here to flame focus on development, but I seriously do not understand what obstacles limit active development for linux. I understand internet explorer and what not, but it's 2023.

BYOND was designed for Windows. Also a very small minority of our users are on Linux. It wouldn't really make much sense to put in so much leg work just so people can use BYOND on Linux.

Despite making up 1% of the userbase, Linux users are responsible for 90% of bug reports
Source: Some game dev studio that did a Linux port of a game a while ago and all they got in return were complaints. |
To be fair though, good bug reports are always useful. I value that aspect of the SS13 community in particular.

Actual quote: Despite having just 5.8% of sales, over 38% of bug reports come from Linux. However, only 1% of those bugs were specific to linux
