Reminder that Microsoft is trying to shift Windows to be entirely cloud based, so this can easily happen overnight without your consent. You don't own your OS. Linux is the only way, unless you're one of those strange BSD folks.
>b-but muh proprietary software and vidya gaymes!!!!
Ik this is sarcastic but the video games issue is real regardless of Proton and its derivatives on Linux. Windows really is the best way to game right now
I feel that this very much depnd on which games you're playing. Competitive or Roblox, Windows is the better choice. Majority of the games I play though works without any issues on Linux.
I've heard that some games even are faster on Linux even when running proton buy it isn't anything I've myself has investigated.
Gaming is one of my main intrests and I've been playing on Linux for at least ten years. It's not for everyone I guess.
I play Apex Legends ranked. It runs better on pop os than win11 on my PC.
It's great that it works for what you play, but it doesn't for me. Hopefully the steamdeck train continues to pick up steam, because it's pretty much the only reason Linux gaming is gaining ground.
