I would just prefer the criteria be changed then proton be removed.

I am getting this overall impression from most people on this thread, does that seem accurate to everyone?

@lyricism

We can separately change the requirements if they don’t make sense, but it seems completely spineless to do so only to protect a brand.

It seems more likely to me that the strict criteria no longer makes sense. I have no problems removing Proton if we feel that it best, but it doesn’t sound like most people want to see that outcome, and I’m not sure that outcome makes sense to me either.

Proton currently does not meet the criteria as others have explained it, so it should currently be removed with scope for reintroduction after criteria is changed.

I disagree, if it’s reasonable to think it’s most likely that we’ll change our criteria, then we should do that.

Edit: I haven’t read the full thread as of yet, so I’m wondering if anyone has brought up implementing OS-specific recommendations?

I’m not sure this would be the best option, but it is potentially an option to say our criteria only strictly applies to the operating systems we recommend, and the only operating systems we recommend right now are various Linux distros and GrapheneOS.
