Went back to Windows 11 from Arch yesterday due to gaming performance issues, vst compatability, workflow issues etc. Linux isn’t ready for people who only game on their PC’s IMHO. I lean on my PC heavily for gaming. So I’m back to hating Microsoft again. Feels normal.
Wholly depends on the types of games you play, personally I don’t play competetive type online multiplayer games that require kernel level anti-cheat access and as such, I’ve had zero issues with gaming. Running EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma.
I love Linux, I used to use it for a few years during the windows 8 era. I eventually went back to windows and it’s just been a comfier place to be for me. Everything works. Every game works with zero additional thought. I need to run CAD software for work and unfortunately integrate with Microsoft services for work.
I could possibly switch to Linux on my home theatre PC that i use in my living room because I use Kodi and browsers for media consumption and mostly game on it by using steam remote play to access games from my windows gaming PC. That might be something that I consider trying in the future.

I beg to differ. Haven’t had a Linux-specific issue in many years, it just works.

Same. Steam stuff and old stuff. I don’t play multiplayer, that really seems to be where all the problems lie.
I exclusively use Geruda Linux. Things run better there than on windows.

I’ve been gaming pretty much exclusively on Linux (and Steam Deck) for the last few years. No issues so far. What problems did you run into?
