Will Microsoft drop the TPM requirement for Win 11 once Win 12 rolls around?

Or maybe they will launch Win 12 with optional TPM support.

Imho making the OS(es) TPM only cannot be good for their business, many people are still on Win 10 with no intention to switch, since their motheboard does not support TPM and do not want to upgrade PC / waste PCI-E slot on TPM extension.

I have 300+ games in my Steam library, some of them with Linux builds, just a few. The rest work with Proton. I did not find a game yet that didn't work on Linux...

I've found some and it sucks if the one game that doesn't work well is one you play a lot. For me it's Trackmania. It works some of the time but often breaks. It seems like the issue isn't with the game itself but with Ubisoft Connect, which is pretty shit even on Windows. Very annoying.

Fortnite.

Well, it works until the server kicks you off.
