How do you feel about it that Microsoft decided to make a new game instead of it being an update for MSFS 2020? Do you think you will buy it or just stick with the 2020 version?

I am running MSFS on Linux with no problems at all.

It currently has Silver status on ProtonDB, I know it should work, but most reports mention some tinkering. The latest reporter posted a work around to get their rudder pedals detected. That's what I meant by not as seamless, it might work for you but you don't have the same hardware as me.

Can you elaborate how? Wine? VirtualBox? What did you need to install if anything to make it work? Which distro are you on?

I am on Fedora 38, it just works on Steam with Proton Experimental. Just make sure to use directx11.

Cool, thanks!
