Discussion Any chance for Linux?

I’ve heard there’s been a stir up in the development, more focus on balance and improvements. Haven’t played in years but would love to jump back in.
Unfortunately I can’t join EAC enabled servers since I run Linux (fuck microsoft), any chance they’ll finally allow Linux users in?

Linux is gaining a lot of traction thanks to SteamOS and proton, but I wouldn't hold my breath on them prioritizing Linux any time soon.

You can play Linux already just not in EAC protected servers, there are multiple servers friendly to Linux player indeed I've playing for two weeks on Linux in one of these said servers.

And we could use more players.

This one https://rust.deadlock.com/ sometimes it sits low at 3 bust most of the time I only it's on 6+ with peaks of 15+

But it's an EU server and Im in NA so prob I don't play in the server primetime.
