Still anxious that there's no clear roadmap for linux gaming after gaben passes (Hopefully decades until then).

If people don’t need any specific software and can adapt to the Linux alternatives, like LibreOffice… people will see some distros are now easier than Windows to use… and… you don’t have bad surprises on updates

Everything I've played this year has been as easy—if not easier—to run on a free OS put together by a gaggle of passionate nerds as it is on Windows, the OS made by one of the most valuable corporations on planet Earth.

I know the histories of both Linux and Windows are complicated, and oversimplification is going to be more wrong than right, but this seems almost malicious. Yes many, if not most, people who work on Linux can probably be characterized as nerds, but that's equally as true of Windows developers. Programming itself is classified as nerdy, so it would be impossible for it not to be true. And dozens, if not hundreds, of companies contribute to Linux, both the kernel and software running in user space, so it's not like it's only unwashed 20-somethings living in their parents' basement that built Linux.

The statement could be completely flipped and be equally as true (if not moreso, since multiple of the most valuable companies on earth contribute to Linux), so why even make it?

I don't know guys, I miss AI.

The biggest problem with Linux has always been windows software imo.

Made the switch to Ubuntu in 2019. The only time I use windows is at work, sadly, but in my main computer, that malware hasn't been installed for years

Not allowed to change all the computers as some play games like GW2 and use Steam. Thought about dual booting, but the computers are using the accursed Windows 11, and there’s fears they’ll (being Microsoft) will screw with that. Anyone who’s in a dual boot situation comment on their experiences?

So I'm on Bazzite right now, and while everything works there's still some stuff that leaves room to be desired.

For one, I don't know what I should be expecting with various games and HDR. It works in some, doesn't work in others. I don't know if I need to tweak any GPU settings (AMD 7900 XTX) but even if I do, I have no idea how to do it.

Steam Remote play is ???? But that was also a problem with Windows.

Multiple monitors and games don't seem to jive nicely either. And I don't know if the Free sync 2 is working or how to even test it.

It took forever to figure out how to wire up my Yeti microphone, but I finally did.

Otherwise every game does work.
