    And then I have to install a windows vm to be able to play all my games properly. And the practical benefit of switching is basically zero for the normal user

      I switched my gaming pc to Linux over a year ago, never looked back and haven’t needed to

      And I’ve never used a VM to game, either

      In a VM you can not really use your GPU so that’s not the way to go about it. So no, you seem uninformed

        Okay then please give me a rundown of benefits I will get if I switch to linux. And how I will be able to play all my games without issues. And maybe i will think about switching. But as of now, i have to find even a single benefit i care about

          I game on a linux mint desktop using proton all the time. The work they’ve done for the steam deck translates almost perfectly to every other Linux distro I’ve tried it on

        I know many people here dont like to hear it but: I really dont care about linux. Never used it (except for school projects and once when i tried some stuff on a raspberry pi)
