U can use it on linux by using a launcher like multimc or prism with the windows jde in the same wine instance. Just look online it's not that hard to setup. edit: it doesnt work on the newest version so make sure you download a older version of kde and wayland so u dont have alot of issues

This is the equivalent of using windows 95 compatibility mode because windows 11 can't run it on its own and still failing. I get that for the main distro developers and their sponsors windowsifying linux has been the fad for almost 20 years now, but this just made me laugh out loud.

On another note, if the hypothetical vape linux release is flatpak-only, I would not use it, because of flatpak's hard dependency on systemd/elogind, which my system of choice (antiX) has alternative, faster implementations of, so it does not support flatpak.

I know this post is a whole lot of larp but it's important that software can be run on any unix-like regardless of configuration, that's what their so lauded freedom of choice is, which the main corporate sponsors for linux do not respect sadly...
