[Rant] I swear to fucking god. Windows is harder to use than Linux. Have any of you ever USED Windows lately? Holy fuck.
I'm helping a family member build a pc. He wanted to use Windows because "Linux can't play games" despite me having a perfectly good gaming laptop running Linux that runs all my games, even graphically intensive ones.
2 days later, no game has been played yet. We can't even get steam to start. I even installed Arch on a sata ssd I donated just to verify the pc parts actually work (took less than an hour). It took 1 and a half days to even get the Windows 11 installer to get past like the 3rd screen.
Fucking fuck. Dealing with all this fucking bullshit is far worse than not being able to play a few trashy anticheat pay 2 win games. The anti Linux circlejerk is real.

Games just run on my Linux laptop these days. I stopped checking winehq a long time ago.
ProtonDB is the first place I go before buying a game, most of the time games work, but there's a few occasions where I have to change some configurations.
I used to do that too, but I don't bother anymore. It just works.
Yep, most games run fine. But I do still have to check if the anti-cheat supports Linux.
indeed. Anticheats are the last holdouts.
I don't have any issues with performance, just with anticheat not being compatible with my most played games.
