    I have no idea what any of those words mean from any of the replies I've seen, but I'm sure I can google it and find out

      Proton on steam is just a way to magically play windows only games on linux and thats about as far as my expertise on that goes :)

      And dual booting is super easy its basically just dividing your storage space in half and having linux on one half and windows on the other (although its a little more complicated than that)

      Dual boot: you have both OSes on one computer. When you restart, you get a DOS-ass looking menu asking which one you wanted. Keep your live USB around because sometimes Windows fucks it up for you.

      Proton: install Steam on Linux, and in it do Steam > Settings > Steam Play and toggle the option “Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles”. Now most Windows games work on Linux. The exceptions are usually big-budget multiplayer games with aggressive anticheat systems
