Do you have a source that this claim is just a myth?
No I follow the 3-2-1 rule which states that you should have 3 copies in 2 locations where 1 of them is remote.
In my case, the remote part is two external SSDs where I leave one with my parents and the other one plugged into my NAS which does automatic daily backups. When my parents come I swap them around.

To be fair, if you do not care about the newest iteration of whatever Nvidia is up to (Frame Generation, RTX HDR, etc.) and don't play games with kernel-level anti-cheat systems, there are really no issues with gaming on Linux these days - at least in my experience.
You're absolutely right that Linux is still missing a lot of the features that are available on Windows. But the freedom you get with it is so worth it for me, even if my 4090 is bored most of the time.
One day I'll be able to use my Meta Quest 2 on Linux without any issues.
Game of Thrones didn't suck because D&D rushed things. It started to go downhill as early as season 5, when they ran out of source material. People overlooked it initially because Game of Thrones had such a strong hype train. The last two seasons were just so blatantly bad that no one could ignore it anymore.
