With the advances in gaming on Linux in recent years, it is so tempting to switch full time. I would absolutely love to, but I am a Game Pass Ultimate subscriber and it is where I play a lot of my games on PC. I know you can use the cloud version, but I cannot stomach streaming games in their current state, so it is a no go. A large portion of my Steam library is compatible, but anytime I have done an install I end up giving in and going back to Windows for games.
Just remember what distro you pick for gaming doesn’t matter as much as the effort you’re willing to put into learning its ins and outs. Use of distro wikis and protondb are key. Also dual-booting is honestly the way to go when starting up, just in case.
I generally agree, but I always found when I did that, that I would never take the time to resolve issues I encounter and just jumped back into Windows. It wasn’t until I went full immersion that the switch stuck. It’s been a few years now, and I’m glad I did.
I’m totally with you, I only suggest what I did if the person has tried linux before but ended up going back to windows. Not having to pick one or the other can help some people stick with their linux install.
