"Sucking off Bill Gates is bad, but Linux doesn't support video games"
I switched to Ubuntu a few months ago, and all my Steam games work just fine. Never looking back.
Bill Gates doesn't run Microsoft anymore. He's not the CEO and largely not responsible for the change in their business model.
Also, I game on Linux more than I do on windows (though I do have a partition in my drive to run windows for games I couldn't get working on steam OS/ Bazzite. It's literally 4 games out of over 100.
I'm making fun of the juxtaposition of people that express frustration/animosity for Windows with the need to stay on Windows in order to consume cutting edge video games.
It gets to be comical. Something about the "height" difference. Like you have the giant "They're taking away my ownership of my data and my very computer!" standing next to little old "But I like my raytracing."
"My data is being exposed in the name of corporate AI!" next to "But I can't play games with anticheat with my friends." It's funny. I'm going to laugh.
