Why the negative reactions?

It's understandable, I guess FP is not always compatible with every OS, depending of what technologies are used...

Sure, there isn't native support for linux, but you can still use wine, though I get 6 less fps than I would on windows which is fine

Okay, so about that, with Proton I get more fps than I would on windows even, which is fucking awesome.

What I did was go to steam, click on the bottom left button called "ADD A GAME", proceeded to add fpPS4.

Then I went into the properties/compatibility. Turned on Proton, and did the command line arguments "-e ''game/eboot.bin"

The problem is not in FP, the problem is in relying on the Windows API

Because Linux is home of Emulation with many backends and special distros. Furthermore, many of people will never ever install distro of Bill Gaytss because Windows is disgusting with all of its trackers, spying and never being open source.

The maintainer didn't say no, they said not at the moment. If you want to see it sooner, rather than complaining 7+ months later, just contribute - that's the beauty of open source development.
