Now that games run so well on Linux I have pretty much shut down windows in it’s entirety from my life. It has been a long time coming and it feels great!
I keep a Windows partition around for special cases but I have not had to use it in a long time. Starfeild will probably force me into it for the first time in a long time. The whole Windows experience is insulting to anyone with any self respect. It has not always been this way.
Even for non-gamers, the magic dust that keeps many Windows games usable on Linux can also be used for non-game Windows apps and everyone can benefit from those compatibility leaps and bounds.
If you’re one of those people who like Linux but still need to have a Windows install to run That One App for work or whatever, WINE/Proton/etc. may be of use to you.
Are there still games that just don’t run on linux? I messed around with it like 6 years ago but didn’t dig too deep, because my main 3 games were the ones that didn’t run on linux.
