I have kubuntu on my laptop but have been using windows 10 ltsc on my desktop for the last 6 or 7 years. I've heard that lots of progress on linux gaming has been made since the steam deck was launched a few years ago and am considering switching my gaming pc over, any recommendations?

    I switched to gaming on Ubuntu last year. Most of the games I care about run the same or better (Path of Exile, Dyson Sphere Program, modded Minecraft). Unreal Engine games run like garbage for some reason (Palworld, Satisfactory specifically). I just switch to my Windows boot for those.

    I've heard AMD rigs work a lot better with Proton, not sure why that's the case but that might be worth looking into.
