(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 thatās also used on Windows.
This is literally the worst possible option. This is why games drop Linux versions and cite ātoo difficult to maintainā as the reason. Itās the most idiotic thing to āportā 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 thereās 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 canāt imagine the ad providers to be happy about being charged ad impressions for things that arenāt actually visible to the user who supposedly viewed the ad.

Itās really amusing that the French government counts WhatsApp as an app for people with privacy concerns when itās owned by Facebook! Also, I should really try out some other distros. Iāve 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: Iām 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. Iāve been taking it for months - itās 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 āobvious false flag by the Globalists, making the far right look badā? Thatās despite them acting just the same as other far right groups, but i digress. But before taking anything, you should find out whatās 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. Itās 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. Iāve 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 donāt much see the point. This is one of those features that donāt make sense when localizing to certain target languages. For Finnish such an option makes no sense whatsoever, and apparently for Japanese as well it doesnāt make sense except maybe as an additional nickname box.
for some reason my youngest sibling gets sick on their birthday every year and itās contagious which means i pretty often get sick because of the cake traditions after it, i am currently sick because of that.
