      It’s actually easier to keep your graphics drivers updated on Linux vs windows, at least with AMD cards. All I have to do is type “sudo dnf upgrade” or if you’re lazy click the “update” button and my system and GPU drivers are up to date.

      Also in regards to games, basically everything on steam works flawlessly and that will satisfy the majority of desktop gamers

      My guy, stop lying. Swapping GPUs is literally just that, I had to do nothing else. Upgrading my drivers also happens with the system updates. And pretty much all my games run either out of the box, or with very little tinkering (typically with very fresh releases), which is not really hard if you know how to do basic shit even in Windows.

      It’s not. I still dual boot but boot more into Linux now as I do want to get away from Windows. The one thing that always held me back was gaming. There’s still games that don’t run but those tend to be ones that use specific anti cheat software. Certainly all the games I run work fine.

      If Linux couldn’t play games the Steam Deck would be a very flawed concept!
