My thoughts about CrossOver made by CodeWeavers (szmer.info)

Hey, recently I bought myself license for CrossOver since trial version satisfied me and here are my thoughts about it. Software itself is really easy to use and install programs from CrossOver. Staff is really helpful, when I wanted to use logo of CrossOver for article, they gave me permission to use it without any problem, even on discord they help a lot. Community is also great, I really felt warm when joining their discord. And the best part of buying license? It supports directly developers of wine (it translated calls to windows api so they could work on Mac api and Linux api). I also haven’t run into any issues yet when playing games through CrossOver.

I have considered buying a license, but I have mostly moved to playing games only made for the Mac.

I end up mostly playing the same few games anyway so it is not a real problem for me. Plus it saves me a lot of money lol.

But it is great to hear good things about crossover.

I also considered it but there aren’t too much games that work natively on macOS, the main aspect of buying crossover was supporting wine since I used it mostly to play games on macOS.
