From 448a964070d926cfde9ac45298f63aeb029ffbe6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Sat, 23 May 2020 04:12:41 +0200 Subject: README: remove trolling I guess this qualifies as trolling. It's becoming increasingly clear that Microsoft will not be able to deliver on this promise, at least not in the way they made it seem at first. I'm not sure if Microsoft was the one who did the trolling, or me. I actually expected that we'd get full GUI integration of Linux applications including accelerated graphics, but it was always clear that it wasn't going to work as well as natively. In any case, there is no need to frighten any users. The time when you can run only "Windows Store Apps" on Windows (== the end for mpv and many other applications on Windows) will come soon enough. The "faster than native" statement is based on other people's real experience of software running faster in Linux VMs than native windows ports, by the way. --- README.md | 4 ---- 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'README.md') diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index fe4b3c9732..8cc3dc3bcc 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -49,10 +49,6 @@ Releases can be found on the [release list][releases]. output methods can help (such as `--vo=xv` on Linux), but this use is not recommended or supported. -Note: "Direct" Windows support is deprecated, pending complete GL/Vulkan support - by Microsoft's WSL 2.
