Pirated game on Linux? (sh.itjust.works)

Moving to Linux soon, and wondering how pirated games work with it. I know about proton with steam and lutris for most bought games, but how would I run pirated windows games over there?

Oh AppImages the thing that takes 20 seconds to launch an Application :) What a great option. Not even Joplin launches as an AppImage in a decent time. For what's worth Flatpak was a godsend. Either solutions still have the issues I described before tho.

AppImage launch times should be not that far off of running it barebone unless you have a MASSIVE appimage, as it uses FUSE, but I get your frustration, especially on slower hardware.

They are and I guess Joplin isn't that big. Flatpaks are way, way faster and make the same thing... but better in all ways. i7 8th gen with NVME btw.
