Heyo, I recently posted some notes about cracking games on Linux. Those notes originally started as a reply to someone, but they evolved into more of a small treasure map for a lot of the important parts of cracking games on Linux. As I finished up the post, I noticed that it was almost exactly at the maximum length it could be on Lemmy (10k characters). I kept wanting to come back and expand just a little bit on something in that post but anything over 10k characters would not save. I eventually got so annoyed that one thing led to another and now I actually have a proper bible, this time at 100k characters.
Good luck with the move! I would say in general you don't need to be worried about cracked games on Linux. Sometimes Windows repacks crash while installing (if you saw the section on precompressors in the guide, that's what's breaking here), so if you primarily use repacks as a source you may run into a problem every once in a while, but most other aspects should be seamless.
