Does Minerstat Client work on distros?
TL;DR: Crypto Minerstat windows client does not have Linux port. Wine/Bottles compatible? possible alternatives appreciated.
I'm a hobbyist investigating Linux instead of Micro-Slop 11^(TM) which I'm currently running. I recently upgraded my GPU and want to start mining ETC again for some extra pocket change, but the only miner I've used is Minerstat which only has a windows client or Linux distro specifically for mining.
A whole distro is a bit much because I still want to use my pc, well, AS a pc, but the client app being windows exclusive sucks. So does anyone have any experience with Minerstat running in Bottles/Wine/Proton/ect., or is there another, Linux native client I should look at instead?
(Also any recommendations for distros would be appreciated! I've heard great things about Pop, Ubuntu, and Mint, but I'd love to hear why you use yours! thanks, Reddit!)
