    I switched from Windows to Linux full time around Feb 2024.

    I think Linux is ready for desktop use.

      I’m a Mac guy and I have a PC for gaming. I just installed Mint on my PC and it has been working great for gaming. I probably won’t need Windows ever again.

        Most games work on Linux or with Steam Proton.

        But some games still don’t or has kernel level anti-cheat systems.

        I would just ignore those games.

      I stopped using Windows in the XP era. Later on I started working in a job that required me to have a Win8 laptop. 2 years later I reverted back to Linux once I stopped working there and had Win8/10 as a game OS. But my main “serious” usage was on Linux.
