About GamingOnLinux

Thank you for stopping by! I'm Liam and I run GamingOnLinux.com!

It's a completely independent gaming website, dedicated to Linux and Steam Deck / SteamOS gaming. I find the news and chase down developers, so you don't have to!

I write new articles almost every day for you to keep up with everything around Linux / SteamOS gaming.

I have written about Linux news for many years. I was the original gaming writer for the old Linux Voice magazine (R.I.P). You can see a horrible picture in many of their early issues. Here's more of what i do:

Track tons of crowdfunded games, so you don't have to search around.
Track plenty of statistics about Steam.
Run a community forum.
Articles not your thing? There's also on YouTube!
On top of that, I also moderate the Linux Gaming community on Lemmy.

The code that runs GOL is open source under the MIT license (gitlab). It's really only meant for GOL though, but hey if an issue bugs you, why not help out ;)

Payments

You can pledge any amount you want from $1 to $ whatever. It's your choice, you don't even need to pick a reward. We appreciate it no matter what! Payments are taken once a month around the 1st of each month. I've enabled up-front payments, so you're charged for the first time when you initially subscribe and then again on the 1st of each month. If you up your pledge, it will also be taken instantly!

How to get supporter status to show up on the website

When you've paid each month, simply go to this page and login with Patreon. It will refresh your account and give you supporter status.

What to expect from this Patreon

Not a lot. Your funding goes directly into working on the website to cover all the news, reviews, editorials, interviews, videos and everything else. Please don't expect any special stuff directly on the Patreon. I hope this makes sense!

You can also find the special Supporter Forum here.

None of this is possible without your support! So thank you <3
