    I feel like a Linux desktop requires too much tinkering.

    That is true, but some people just like to tinker.

    Overall I love Linux. I love it in an environment where it’s directly supporting me and my hardware. I simply do not get that with my common gaming desktop.

    That is somewhat the beauty of it. I don’t game, I just go to work and go home, so I have some free time to tinker and share what I have done/found/made.

      Absolutely and that’s a great way to look at it. If you like to tinker as a hobby then Linux is amazing. I even have a Linux computer meant for tinkering and do enjoy it. That said I switch to my Windows computer when I want to focus on playing games purely because that Linux computer isn’t up to the task even with proton.

        I use Windows basically for work only. It’s just easier cuz everything is stacked against Microsoft products.

        Or if I’m at home, I RDP to the PC at work and just use that.
