This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I switched in my 20s when I stopped caring about competitive games, and I'm always surprised at how little effort it is to do the things I want to do.

To be fair, I did find a few very early windows 98/XP'ish games or so hard to get going. There was a period where developers tailored the games very specifically for the OS. But they're fairly rare.

That's tricky on Windows too, and generally you need a compatibility layer anyway (e.g. dosbox).
