Today, I switched the last of my Windows machines to Linux: my gaming PC. I’ve been using Linux on servers for many years but was a bit apprehensive for gaming.
Turns out it just… works. Just installed steam and turned proton on, have zero performance or other issues. I’m using Ubuntu 25.04 for the 6.14 kernels NT emulation performance tweaks. Aside from there not being a catalyst driver for it and so I can’t undervolt my card everything is great.
I remember thinking this same thing until my first fstab issue lol. Joking aside the switch itself is relatively painless, you do sort of have to switch your mind to the Linux way of thinking though. And the Linux way of thinking has to include “something is going to break eventually and I’m going to have to figure out how to fix it”
