It’s called Gaming on Linux. Not Gaming in General. However, they are not a Linux gaming publication, as they mostly talk about Windows games whose Linux compatibility is irrelevant; that stopped being news since 99.9% of Windows games work without issues.
It would be like Windows Central making an article about every Switch release that works on emulators. Sure, they are allowed to, but it’s not what their publication is about.

Most games run on Linux if we take compatibility layers into account. What’s the difference with IGN if they talk about all games that run on Linux?

I want to read about it, hence why I don’t read GoL: because most of their articles are irrelevant. I don’t care about a random indie game running on Linux; this isn’t news.

The new Zelda works on Ryujinx, where is the GamingOnLinux article about it?

Then what’s the point? They could do an article about every Switch release, since they are technically playable on Linux with emulation. Or about Xbox Cloud Gaming using a browser.
This is general PC gaming news, not gaming on Linux.

Gaming On Linux is terrible. They have an article on their front page right now about a game called Fractured Alliance… which doesn’t have a Linux version.
- Comment on Valve Working With Rockstar to Fix GTA Online on Steam Deck 1 month ago:
This just in: Rockstar Games announces GTA 6 and RDR 3 will only be available on Rockstar Social Club.
Valve isn’t powerful enough to force big publishers to stop their anti-consumer practices. They will just use their own store, and Valve will lose a revenue stream.

They are nice to have, but most of the time aren’t updated as often as the Windows build.

All VS DLC maps are like this.

What? GTA 1 and 2 are terrible.
- Comment on EA opens up more patents for increasing Accessibility in gaming 11 months ago:
My point is if they created something without patenting it, it is no longer possible for anyone to patent it.
- Comment on EA opens up more patents for increasing Accessibility in gaming 11 months ago:
You can’t patent something that already exists.
- Comment on EA opens up more patents for increasing Accessibility in gaming 11 months ago:
The better alternative would be to not patent it in the first place.
