Another thing I've liked about linux. The community is amazing, and I find games I never would have heard of otherwise! What are some games you've found solely because of linux?

For me,

Honestly might be the other way around for me. I was mainly a multiplayer guy for the longest time but most franchises I was invested in quickly went down the drain and a lot of the newer battle-royal style shooters didn't appeal to me.

Started mainly playing older games that had been on my backlog for a while. And videos of the Steamdeck running them games started popping up.

So since I already hated Windows 10 from the start and I didn't need my PC to run the latest AAA multiplayer games anymore, seemed like a better time than ever to switch.

I still play some multiplayer with Battlefield 4 and Battlebit Remastered. (R.I.P Battlefield 1 and Ironsight on Linux though...)
