text: Native gaming Native gaming is a form of Linux gaming that emphasizes using only native games or ports and not using emulators or compatibility layers.
  DRM-free gaming
  DRM-free gaming is a form of Linux gaming that emphasizes boycotting DRM technologies. This can include buying games from GOG.com, certain Humble Bundles or itch.io and avoiding Steam and similar services.
  Terminal gaming
  Terminal gaming is the playing of text-based games from within a console, often programmed within Bash or using libraries such as ncurses.
  Retro gaming
  Retrogaming is the playing of older games using emulators such as MAME or Dosbox, compatibility layers such as Wine and Proton, engine reimplementations and source ports, or even older Linux distributions (including live CDs and live USB, or virtual machines), original binaries,
  and period hardware.
  Live gaming
  A number of games can be played from live distributions such as Knoppix, allowing easy access for users unwilling to fully commit to Linux. Certain live distros have specially targeted gamers, such as SuperGamer and Linux-Gamers.
  Browser gaming
  Browser gaming is the act of playing online games through a web browser, which has the advantage of largely being platform independent. The same largely applies to social network games hosted on social media sites. Older games were largely based on Adobe Flash, while modern ones are mostly HTML5.
