2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He’s running Windows 7 right now, so I’ll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

        A win for whom? MS can better spy you on win10 and sell you ads. Maybe a win for the user because win10 is more secure then an outdated win7. But for a pure gamer who doesn’t want the MS BS, Linux slowly becomes a real good option. Gaming mostly just works and everything else you need is probably in the browser anyway.

            Correction I can only tell about my personal experience and it mostly just works. Yes there are exceptions. But most games through steam or epic just work. I rarely have any issues with them. If you’re not much into competitive stuff, you’ll have s great time.
