  • No, bottles is just a program that enables you to use wine much more comfortably.

    Wine isn’t super hard to use, but it’s annoying. So stuff like Bottles and Lutris exist, both basically do the same. They give you both a GUI and much easier accessable settings for the wine-prefixes. Those prefixes basically are just folders with the faked windows stuff in it.

    Lutris is made for games but can be used for programs too. Bottles is made out of the box for both games and programs, has a much more streamlined interface and workflow and lets you easily create new “bottles” (bottle is just the given name for a wine prefix) for each of your games / programs.

    Putting everything in their own bottle / prefix is really handy because it allows you to modify the prefix for each application without ruining it for another. If you need a specific version of a certain .dll file for one game but not for others, you can just install that .dll file in the specific bottle / prefix for that one specific game, and the other games just use their own bottles / prefixes with the default .dll for example.

    Very handy.

    Bottles is usually more recommended because it’s more streamlined… Also the dev of lutris seems quite toxic and isn’t good with making friends in the scene :D








  • Nah i am German, so imho I have every right to be majorly pissed off by religion being so invasive that they even enforce taxes unless you take your time and fucking pay money to officially leave the church so you don’t have to pay those cults any money anymore

    Organized religion has no respect for anyone, organized religion is the single most horrible thing that ever happened to humanity and organized religion is solely responsible for billions of deaths throughout history, way too many fucking wars and so much blocking of innovation.

    Religion doesnt respect women, lgbtq, mentally disabled, people who don’t want to be indoctrined to follow a cult member and, of course, members of other religions.

    But sure, go ahead and continue that stupid categorized thinking of “I bet you’re american” buddy
