First take a look at this
https://ferransole.wordpress.com/2014/06/08/persistent-mapped-buffers/

Now, notice anything? None of these features are available on OSX and since devs are too shitty to use a OpenGL compatiblity profile, they just don't implement this shit.

The reason why Linux gaming sucks is just Apple. Nothing else. It doesn't help that they will never implement new OGL extensions and instead focus on their cancer Metal API.

The devs are getting barely any money from doing Linux ports, more people buy their games on OSX anyways, but honestly, what the fuck.

Would they just throw OSX gaming into trash where it belongs, you'd see OpenGL OUTPERFORMING DX11.

There's actually people, that when using Linux, they care more about not having a dildo forced up your ass than using free software.

  const GLchar* gFragmentShaderSource[] = {
"#version 440 core\n"
"out vec3 color;\n"
"void main(void)\n"
"{\n"
" color = vec3(0.0,1.0,0.0);\n"
"}\n"

OpenGL itself is fucking shit no matter how much the freetards want to say otherwise. The only hope is Vulkan so you better wish it gets released and widely adopted soon.

I play Binding of Isaac: Rebirth and a few other indies and have no problem with it.

To be honest, it's better and easier than Windows, since my Dualshock 3 is recognized and works right away, with the PS button prompts, while on Windows I had to install SCP and always have the Xbox prompts.
