There must be some way around it though? I think this is an important issue as the vast majority of people will never use linux. It would be a mistake to exclude 90% plus of the users from mining. It simply does not look good from a marketing/PR perspective and gives more ammunition to the detractors.
I have a number of friends who were very non-technical and wouldn't even dare using regular miners (even on Windows) but they use their spare CPU/GPU time to mine using Minergate.
It makes it really easy for new users so something like that would be perfect.
Obviously the issue of centralisation comes up if there is a single pool doing it though.
Hello please tell me the huskies have a limit? how much can you put in a day? and if not difficult to you tell me how to climb with the help of likes ?

Using docker or another virtual machine is an available workaround.
Someone could create a mining pool with a standalone miner.
Interesting - like a Minergate type setup?
That would be ideal.

Agreed. Something like Minergate would be great. It's so easy to get started mining on Windows with their software.
I was just thinking @Minergate should do this. Would be great.
You have got to be kidding.
