Make the jump to Linux and loose 90% of the games you play as well. If all you play is steam games and don't care about many that can't be played then sure. I get the appeal. But windows 11 is the same thing as 10.
90%?
Do you only play games with kernel level anti-cheat? Because those are literally the only games i haven't been able to play, and fortunately for me I don't want to play those games.
I play many kinds of games. Using a Windows emulator in Linux doesn't count as "running on Linux"
You should look up what Wine stands for.
Ha, get a load of this guy, he thinks wine is an emulator!
If the game plays on your linux distro who cares what you call it?
Lol what
Wine sometimes gains performace over windows though, so why do you care?
It's 2025, not 2007. This is a huge exaggeration. Maybe try it again sometime.
I might when the DAWs I use will work natively.
Yeah you definitely didn’t play on Linux for more than 5 minutes
I use DAWs, havent had luck with wine not crashing games. So yes. You MUST be right, haven't used Linux at all actually. Just saw a word document about it. God you people are the worst
Pretty much, 1% of games don't work on Linux and its the top 1% most popular games
My problem is 100% of the DAWs I use don't work on Linux
Yeah, sometimes there are software that just won't have a Linux version. Thats to be expected because Linux isnt a Windows clone so itll never run all Windows software. If that software is important to you I would reccomend just installing Windows 11.
