That's what I meant, running a dedicated Blockland server.

I said this but then I also said how not all distros have packaged versions of wine on default repositories (yes you can package them yourself but its difficult for most people). I also said how if wine runs this well imagine even more performance that could get squeezed out. I'm happy with wine on BL it works great, I just want to get some feedback from Basspot if he were to ever make a linux dedicated server for Blockland and when.

Linux sucks so I don't agree

There's really no difference in speed between programs run on Windows and those run with Wine. Programs with Wine pretty much run natively.
Port:
We really don't need this that badly. Anyone who couldn't figure out how to set up Wine on a distribution that doesn't include it in a package manager wouldn't be using that distribution anyway. In addition, Blockland runs extremely quickly through Wine regardless. Of course, a native version would be nice, but it really isn't needed.
