In the context of Greenluma, a "blacklist" generally refers to one of two scenarios: If the game you are trying to launch
Some users believe they are smarter than the community-maintained blacklist. They edit their local GreenLuma config to force-enable blacklisted App IDs. The consequences are severe:
