gollark: Take Minetest and Minecraft Java Edition. Minetest is FOSS and waaaay better designed, but it's just somehow worse to use than Minecraft, probably because it has less content and less of a UX focus.
gollark: The driver support thing is also because Microsoft is okay with the drivers being arch-specific proprietary binary blobs, which works in the *short* term.
gollark: With Abigor's comment, I mean.
gollark: I disagree.
gollark: Unfortunately technically superior doesn't mean better.
