I want to go Linux on my main gaming system coz I like KDE and GNOME more than ugly ass Windows 11, but I just don’t want to deal with compatibility crap.
i think those times are over.
so i put some mint linux on any pc, install steam and then add non steam game .exe file. only setting needed is run with proton10. i have not yet found a thing that doesnt run. and it so far every time outruns windows.
As a primary Linux user, there are many cases that don’t work. Many kernel level anti cheat (which I would refuse to install on windows anyway), some games have noticeable worse performance (obscure expedition 33 has low average fps and terrible dips on linux, but it’s “OK” on windows for my specific hardware ).
On average, I think Linux is still better, but YMMV depending and what games your want and what HW you have.
