From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Cheating estimates are hard. I think my Fortnite games are plagued by cheaters, but maybe I just suck and everyone else is competitive level. This study found that 32% of gamers had admitted to cheating, and 12% claim to cheat regularly. This study found astonishingly high levels of people searching for cheats for their games, with Sweden topping the ranks of cheaters.
Bottom line: if it's not a problem for you, that's great. It's a big problem for me and others, and I'm grateful to give up a little privacy in exchange for a cheat-free experience, which Valorant does.
You say that but I've cheated, I haven't cheated in any competitive games but I cheat in PVE stuff for shits and giggles all the time
Still salty about getting VAC banned dying light from for swimming at super speed in a co op lobby with vac explicitly disabled in everyone's settings
Cheating doesn't neccesarily mean ruining other people's experience unless the survey is specifically about competitive games
