They're still scum of the earth for fortnite but I can appreciate this action.

What's wrong with Fortnite?

If it does detect that you're running it on Proton, then it'll say that it is unsupported. >!Why the fuck just Epic can't fork Proton and adjust it to their games?!<

Because half the way they operate now is solidly based on doing the opposite of what valve is doing.

They wont support Proton because its made by Valve and little Timmy hates valve.

It abused dark ux patterns to an extreme as well as engaging in a lot of psychological abuse to extort money from users.

Yeeeeeh… more than most mobile games, which is quite insane!

So did Valve but apparently that's fine.

Is this about cs:go skins or is it something else. I don't remember valve being deceptive (Not Defending Just Asking 🙄)

I can’t disagree with you

But the degree to which they fuck(ed) with people’s minds is wildly different.
