why is Vulcan support experimental it works fine on Linux here have you seen a Vulcan in action like when they erupt there's just lava and dash everywhere you don't want to be anywhere near they will always be experimental they want to be near that and guarantee safety so here's the thing Vulcan is like, Vulcan the API is not complete I think, they like they're still developing Vulcan so Vulcan doesn't support everything that the other API support at the moment, but it does support the majority of things so like it's not like it's missing stuff but, but, I don't think epic see it as complete I think they view it experimental and if the engine say it's not fully supported then we can't say that it is so that's the main thing I think, but even then I have seen many issues from people, and, yeah it seems pretty broken compared to the other ones it's not as well maintained I'd say, or or supported I would say because they are working on on maintaining it and all stuff, but I mean it works for some people and for some people it doesn't work at all so, that's why it's mostly marked as experimental
