I am actually ok with cheaters, because the alternative is installing a frickin malware.

This is a controversial opinion

Yeah, cheaters bother me way less than some random program with root level access able to monitor everything it wants

Agreed even the most robust anticheat is easy to bypass and especially how deep in the kernel it runs.
