As a gamer, I’m always going to have at least one Windows PC.

But I’m planning to upgrade next month, and turn my old PC into a non-gaming Linux rig for all non-gaming purposes.

Basically every game without anticheat runs on Linux now

That wasn’t my experience, even with the various compatibility tools.

A lot do though.

I don’t play every game out there, but in the last couple of years, I’ve not had a reason to switch to Windows to play a game.

Most games these days seem to work fine on Linux, especially with all the work Valve has put in.

When I ran a dual-boot over June and July last summer only about 60% of my library functioned, so for me, it’s just not feasible to go entirely without Windows.

Same here. Its just a much better experience through windows. I made a new system for my daily driver which runs linux and I only turn on my gaming desktop when i want to game. I stream it through steam remote play and it works great
