We all know Roblox is already very popular but yet some kids can't play the games that they love. Some kids have Linux computers. As it says on roblox "roblox doesn't support linux". Roblox should be made to run on Linux computers too. If Roblox ran on Linux computers Roblox would be more popular. There are some users on roblox that have ####### for roblox but they have a Linux computer and all they do is chat on the website. I have a rapberry pi computer which is a Linux computer. One day I searched for hours trying to get roblox on my raspberry pi even though I had seen that roblox doesn't support Linux I tried it any way. Raspberry #### have a ##### verison of google chrome called ########### But since roblox doesn't work with ######## I had to try installing google chrome ###### but the thing was I couldn't get that either. So I think that roblox should be able to run on linux and on ######## internet.

Comparing the benefit to the cost (time involved), it's just not worth it - The users, in my opinion, just aren't there.

Yes, there's some fringe cases, but they're just that; fringe cases. Most users, who are gaming, are using either Windows or MacOS - The former being far more likely.

You don't understand, OP. It's not as if ROBLOX can magically say "Lets make it fair for everyone" and open compatibility for all devices. They need to first invest time, cash, and effort into doing so. Also, most people who play ROBLOX play either on PC or Mac. Adding Linux would be useless considering how much of a profit they'd actually make from it.

Especially considering that they don't want to invest time into something that won't benefit them when they can be doing other things.

@above, I dont believe thats the case... But Roblox wouldn't benefit from the effort and cash they invest into making it compatible with linux. Not enough people use it.

You have a raspberry pi? And you think it can run roblox? Don't make me laugh.
My cousin made the mistake of buying a £200 raspberry pi new. It can barely run anything, and it's essentially top of the range when it comes to raspberry pi computers. Somehow I doubt that you have one that costs £200. Probably £50 or something.

The Raspbery Pi is not designed for gaming, so even if they would release roblox to linux the Pi wouldnt be able to run it.
