This is so funny because rust has one of the worst cheating situations and majority of their players are windows users, and theres lots of games that have anticheat that allows linux and have notably less significant cheating problems like marvel rivals. in reality rust doesn't take cheating very seriously because if they did they would have more server side software that detects illegitimate behaviour like tons of other games do successfully...... even most popular Minecraft servers have better functioning anti cheat that is completely server side than rust has while getting kernel access to your pc. its pathetic and lazy development tbh and this entire post from them reads like such extreme cope....

You dont understand linux users have black magic hacks that ruined the game for every player on every server, their power cant be understated... Theyre a whole bunch of dangerous hardened criminals

I feel like some people think Linux is only for hackers and cybersecurity professionals

And genuine hackers and cybersecurity professionals have got way better things to do than cheat in Rust.

The cheaters are all obnoxious 12-year-olds who couldn't land a single hit without the cheats, that's why all the compilation videos of cheaters falling foul to fake cheat software are so funny. They'll spend 10 minutes trying to go through a doorway without it ever occurring to them that something must be wrong.
