Despite the problems I am still able to have fun with this game most of the time, even though I can only play vanilla and multiplayer.
Singleplayer missions (apart from skirmish as there are no saves there) are out of the question, as any save that is made creates a .jpg thumbnail of the match, which appears to cause a crash.
May randomly crash during an online match regardless of what is happening ingame
Most mods are unplayable - Some won't let you load into the main menu (for example UMV 40k), map thumbnails can cause the same crashes that happen when a save is made and modded files may cause a crash when loading into a match.

Very minor issues, the only graphical issue I remember was that the track marks of the Fatboy left behind energy and mass icons on the ground
Installing FAF can be done with this guide: https://wiki.faforever.com/index.php?title=Setting_Up_FAF_Linux However, the Java part was not possible for me, as I couldn't download Java 15 from the repository using the given command. I forgot where exactly I've downloaded my OpenJDK15 version, but this site has almost the same one: https://jdk.java.net/archive/ Despite this, I had to redefine the Java home environment every time I restarted my pc if I wanted to play. Perhaps I missed something during the installation but it works for me.
Installing LOUD, however, has simply been impossible for me. Their Launcher can't connect to their server due to wine and downloading their files manually from their drive link was also not possible as my browser would eventually run into a network error. Even when I installed it using the files a LOUD user sent me personally the Launcher would show an "Application load error" when trying to launch the mod.
