You doing real family trees, or sims family trees?
Sims family trees! What I use right now is quikflow, it’s the only tool I’ve found so far that actually allows me do what I need on the fly, since I use it as I play. The auto arranging especially is priceless, when there’s easily over 100 sims and they’re all related to each other it gets really difficult to keep track of the family without the fluid enough software for it. The trees also constantly grow and change, and I have to mark all the dead and family lines etc. and it’s just a giant clusterfuck lmao (but it’s incredibly fun). I do keep searching for a linux-usable program that would be even better suited for the trees, but so far I haven’t found any, they’re all too bulky and lack the auto arranging and/or easy cross-linking.
And yeah, I might have to just do something like that. With the lutris versions the trouble is the links keep dying (I think EA is intentionally targeting them to get people buy legacy edition), so every time I look into it they are dead already, or have installation requirements that are seriously complicated. I probably do have to jump to legacy version at some point, but then I’ll also have problems with the extra programs… yeah, I have no idea how to sort out that whole mess.
Even though most games do work now, when you do these weird random niche things, linux is still a bit too hard to approach
