I've been feeling inspired by the posts here and on /c/libre and have been switching over to a lot of FLOSS alternatives to software I use. One thing holding me back from switching to Linux is that my PC is how I play games and, as I understand it, most games aren't compatible with Linux so you either can't play them or they need software like Wine. How much of a problem is this really, since I've also heard that Linux gaming has been getting easier over the years.
Steam Proton is pretty amazing. My experience is that a game is on Steam it will probably play.
I still keep a Windows partition for when I have to collaborate with some MS ecosystem dorks or if I want extra good performance on a non-Steam game.
I've been thinking if trying out Xen with GPU passthrough though, where I'd run windows on top of Linux.
Nice, I'll see what games in my library run on Steam Proton, although dual boot partition does seem like the move.
I have it in the mode that ignores whether it's been officially verified to work, and so far everything has! It's pretty neat.
