Glad to see some official Linux support. RuneLite has always been available on Linux, but using a Jagex Account required the Jagex Launcher, and Jagex Accounts will soon be mandatory.

runescape membership is overpriced and jagex have a long history of shitting on their customers

Also the CEO caved to bigots and canceled pride. I left and every time I look back the vibe has gotten worse.

I experienced an issue when I downloaded osrs on steam and logged into it on steam. It made a new character and associated it to my email. I posted a bug on runelites discord and one of the mods that was helping me said I was hacking.

At the time, I didn't know bolt existed. Bolt allows you to pick what character you log into.

In case you don't know and you have more than one character, bolt works miracles. You don't have to deal with the bad discord mods that have no idea what they're doing.
