Tried for a few hours to do the linux implementation. Cant get it to work in ubuntu 20.xx. Here's what I've tried: https://github.com/etternagame/etterna/compare/a0bad9d791e44b4172c2007c1ef51f83a6dba0c5...poco0317:etterna:fa52f2f4aa97a28a13d78dbd6873120ea9344306?expand=1

Basically its a horrible headache to interact with linux because theres multiple window implementations and we assume X11 is good enough but it probably isnt. GLFW or something would probably solve this but hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
