    I know it’s not the best

    Didn’t pay thousands for top of the line ryzen and nvidia gear for “not the best” gaming situation.

    Linux falls short on two major fronts, less idiot proof, less gamer friendly, and that’s Windows’ largest market shares, idiots and gamers.

      It’s almost issue free with the exception of the publishers explicitly blocking it because it doesn’t allow them to add a rootkit to your system.

      Lmao, most games have better performance on linux so you can’t claim it’s not the best

          There’s another launcher that I’m forgetting the name of that will launch Epic and GoG games. Following that proton guide should make NTFS (windows) drives usable for anything in Linux though. I can boot games downloaded from “alternate sites” if I add them to steam as “non steam games” regardless of how the drive is mounted.

        There’s still the issue of overhead and such. Like I want to ditch windows forever, but Linux is just not 100% there yet with gaming. It’s very close though.
