I realize it’s too late now, but as I’ve posted before on Lemmy: you can “run” Fortnite on Linux well enough by using a game streaming service like Luna or GeForce Now. It’s the only game I run that way on my PC and only because my kids enjoy teaming up with me in BRs.
I mention it because it seems like most people aren’t aware it’s an option (even on Windows, if you want to avoid rootkits on your system). Not for everyone, but you can technically stick to your principles/security and still play (some of) those kinds of games.
