I think this could even be related to the idea of post-open source that Bruce Perens talked about. An organisation which helps its members handle the business-y parts of running large community projects. They could handle funding, legal representation, marketing and any other support that members may want. A large number of members would make it that much more effective as well.

The best outcome would be setting a precedent that allows FOSS organisations to send threatening letters to companies that violate the license. An individual dev maintaining a small library may theoretically be able to win a lawsuit, but practically? lmao good luck

If I understand correctly, this applies to users, not just contributors. As a user of the software you are entitled to a copy of the source code.

I figured out why Gnome on Xorg was crashing. It was because of libinput-config. I noticed because it wouldn’t actually crash until the moment I moved the mouse. The game seems to work perfectly on Xorg.

I already tried gamescope. The results of that attempt are in my original post above.

Still, while I can finally play the game now, it’s a bit annoying having to remove a package and reboot everytime. I don’t even know if this is a Wayland issue or a Gnome issue but I don’t have the disk space to install KDE or anything.

Ideally I would like to figure out why this is happening in the first place and maybe report it upstream, but I have no clue how to even get debug logs out of this.

Anyway, thanks for the help. I appreciate it!

Okay this is extremely weird. No matter which version of wine/proton I pick in Lutris, I get the exact same issue where the window doesn’t show up but the game is running. The only difference with Steam here is that I can hear the game audio.

I am almost certain this is an issue because of Wayland but I can’t seem to figure out why Gnome on Xorg keeps crashing for me.

Alright, I’ll try that. I wanted to use Steam because then I can use my controller with Steam input but I guess it’s fine.

Yes

I tried it a few hours after I made this post but for some reason, Gnome on Xorg kept crashing and going back to GDM as soon as I moved the cursor. By that point it was getting late and I stopped debugging. I have no idea how to debug that anyway.

Yes. I tried Proton GE, Proton Experimental and Proton 8.0-2

The window doesn’t even show up on an older version of Proton.
