I've looked around a little, and found some mentions of using Lutris, or running it through Steam (tbh I don't know how that would work), but I'm not really able to find any guide that explains the process well enough. I'm so used to the game being handled by Blizzard's Battle.net launcher, so I can't really wrap my head around how that would work.

A little off-topic, but it’s kinda tragic how easy it is to install and play WoW private servers on Linux, compared to the official game. Some private servers even have launchers made for Linux. But a multi-billion company can’t manage…

I've always wanted to try private servers, mainly for a state of permanent WotLK, but I never could figure out how to do it.
