The developer explains it should run basically everything unless “it requires strong GPU acceleration or kernel-level anticheat”.
That is a lot of use cases people have for Windows only applications.
I imagine this is more for productivity apps, where gamers are going to use proton or wine.
it runs a real copy of Windows
then just run windows; at that point if you’re going to buy a license for windows, why go through hoops?
So now suddenly us lemmy linux tech nerds forgot about mass…🙄.
Unless that isn’t possible to run, then correct me pls
Instead of running compatibility layers, it runs a real copy of Windows using Docker and KVM under the hood.
I take it that it requires a Windows license then, I’ll stick with wine.
You can always just not activate windows. Nothing is stopping you from using it that way.
Unless you somehow use it commercially. Then the missing license could cause legal issues.
Sure, but if your company is at that point then the $200 is a drop in the bucket. You’ve gotta be a pretty big company before MS notices.
