Just like migrating from Reddit to Lemmy it’s the same as migrating from Windows to Linux, there’s shortcomings and learning curve and the more I use Lemmy the more I hate about Windows, because unlike reddit Lemmy is open source and open source softwares communities is more popular than proprietary communities and people like to shit on them (and I loved it). (Sorry for horrible English)
Haven’t heard of Lutris, and the website says it’s an open source gaming platform. I’m kinda confused about what it does. It’s a client to host all your gaming accounts? How’s that related to NP++? Sorry if I sound too obtuse, it can take a bit on the uptake for me.
It’s just a gui frontend of wine with some enchantment to run not just windows games but also windows softwares on Linux, it’s pretty easy to install and setup also you don’t need an account to use it
I’ll try this next, thanks for the info.
It’s worth noting that, if you already have steam installed, you can have it do the same thing without needing to install Lutris. Lutris will probably still be simpler to set up, but just in case you already have steam and really don’t want to install yet another program just to get notepad++ running properly:
You’ll need to enable “force compatibility layer for all games” in the Steam settings (or something along those lines), then add notepad++.exe to Steam via the “Add non-Steam game to library” functionality.
