(From https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/kqw0si/guide_on_how_to_easly_run_pirated_games_on_linux/?rdt=44586)

• Download pirated game
• Install Lutris and find your game in it
• Install original game through Lutris
• Using WINEPREFIX=“/Lutris/game/prefix (eg. /home/USER/Games/originalgame)” wine piratedgame.exe install pirated game into this Lutris prefix
• Apply crack
• (optional) Copy your saves into this prefix’ c:\Users\Documents folder
• Change game executable in lutris from platform exe (like EGS or Steam) to your pirated game’s .exe
• Run game using Lutris.

If Lutris is having issues, you may have better luck using Bottles, also trying the non flatpak version if you are currently using flatpak.

I think the only reasonable way to do that would be using AI since the sponsors are placed randomly throughout usually. Unless you listen to a specific podcast and they do same length of sponsor in same time slot every video you could automate something that cuts it out.

Fair enough, I most likely broke the system due to not understanding it when using Endeavour. From my understanding now, someone can choose to not install de specific programs and additional endeavouros apps.

I’m sure there would be a way to create a script that puts the commands that you’d like in for a given url. Also haven’t used yt-dlp, it’s nice that they have sponsorblock built in.

Most of the guides I will try to add to my kindle or save on my laptop. Looking for Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, Animal Crossing, Elden Ring, Demons Souls. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it and may make a personal list of all the games and links.

That is true in the same way that Ubuntu is Debian. I prefer the base version where I can choose what’s necessary for me for resource management and troubleshooting purposes. I forget what it was, but there were a few issues where Endeavouros was not working properly and the Arch wiki solutions did not work for it, could have been my error as well at the time.
