Hey Shapr3D!  
I am kind of getting fed up looking at the (be it modern looking) hourglass of windows all the time. I don’t know if Bill is approving everything personally there or that it is in the background converting everything to powershell and/or visual excel/word/basic whatever it is they love in the windows 🙂  
It’s really not so hard to compile linux nowadays anymore, just make sure the GPU libs and GUI run under Linux and use a cross compiler (like [Zig](https://andrewkelley.me/post/zig-cc-powerful-drop-in-replacement-gcc-clang.html) ).  
Thanks in advance!  
Keep up the good work
