I'm curious as to what everyone's reasons are! The Linux desktop has came quite a far ways in the last few years and is improving every day. I'd say for most people, Linux could easily replace Windows as their daily driver nowadays.

    For development, Linux is soooo nice. But when I want to play games, anticheats don't tend to be happy running under wine. X11 is also ancient garbage, and Wayland is just not ready.

    So instead, I run windows. When I need to do Linux stuff, I use WSL. VSCode lets me run it under WSL as if it were running on Linux directly, and very few of the things I've used under WSL have complained about it.

    As soon as Wayland is actually ready, and companies stop their anticheats from getting mad under wine, I will switch back over.
