Jagex launcher is super nice because you don't need to enter your password every time, it's just the mobile login button which is super nice. But ya I, feel you, I have a few Linux machines I just tinker around on and have runelite on and it would be nice if they were to open source the jagex launcher so I don't have to type my damn password every time I afk timeout :)
Yeah, agree but the issue here is, what happens when their non-native implementation for Linux goes kaput? i guess we'll be having to run Windows or Android VMs!
There's tons of FOSS auth stuff but apparently Jagex isn't clued in enough...
That's pretty much my worry. I would be fine if they e.g. release their "official" lutris script or something, because at least then I would trust that they might be willing to fix issues if something comes up. But now that they are pretty much saying that they won't support Linux in any way, but you might try these solutions on your own risk, it doesn't really make me want to use them.
Yep. Oh well we still have kvm/qemu...
