(and yes, I had to specifically install hl2 just to take the screenshots)
The only place .dll files exist on Linux if you are running non-native software using Wine or Proton. Or if you have an app written in C# and the .dll file actually contains CIL bytecode. Even then the runtime for that bytecode is a native Linux program, it just supports executing programs stored in a format thatโs also used on Windows.
This is literally the worst possible option. This is why games drop Linux versions and cite โtoo difficult to maintainโ as the reason. Itโs the most idiotic thing to โportโ a game to Linux by making a copy of it and then getting it working.
What you instead need to do is to start doing cross platform development. Which means that you separate all the parts that are platform specific or interact with the operating system into one place. Then you use preprocessor directives to control which platform specific code needs to compile. For example one bit is for Windows, another is for Mac and Linux. Then thereโs some other OS specific operation that needs an implementation separately for Windows, Linux and Mac.
Yes, you put in compiler instructions in the source code to activate specific parts of the code only when compiling for a specific target platform.
An ad being unreadable is probably worse than it not working. I canโt imagine the ad providers to be happy about being charged ad impressions for things that arenโt actually visible to the user who supposedly viewed the ad.

Itโs really amusing that the French government counts WhatsApp as an app for people with privacy concerns when itโs owned by Facebook! Also, I should really try out some other distros. Iโve been using Ubuntu for ages, and often get fed up with it. I generally use the LTS releases, but they always have features that stop working after a while, and I can never find out how to fix them (not that I can be bothered to try very hard).
And regarding Unity: Iโm pretty sure I was using that on Linux about 3 years ago.
@willow Ashwagandha can be really useful, but not for anything related to HRT. Iโve been taking it for months - itโs really helped with long-Covid brain fog. I was getting debilitating levels of brain fog, but it stopped almost entirely when I started taking that. Did you know that Infowars claims that the Patriot Front is an โobvious false flag by the Globalists, making the far right look badโ? Thatโs despite them acting just the same as other far right groups, but i digress. But before taking anything, you should find out whatโs in it and what it does. And even if something is beneficial for you in a lot of ways, there could be reasons it would be bad for you - such as interacting with medication, or worsening other heath issues. Itโs always worth checking.
@hhyyrylainen I wonder how general pronoun options would translate into Japanese, where even your own name can be your preferred pronoun.
Unity and Unreal have had Linux versions of their editors for quite many years now, though they have extra bugs and issues. I actually submitted a PR to unreal engine to fix window resize flag not working correctly on Linux and they even merged it. Iโve heard that the unity editor experience is much worse on Linux thanks to unreal accepting community-made Linux fixes.
The user could just put their name in the pronoun field? Though, I donโt much see the point. This is one of those features that donโt make sense when localizing to certain target languages. For Finnish such an option makes no sense whatsoever, and apparently for Japanese as well it doesnโt make sense except maybe as an additional nickname box.
for some reason my youngest sibling gets sick on their birthday every year and itโs contagious which means i pretty often get sick because of the cake traditions after it, i am currently sick because of that.
