    I find it's still lacking in these areas :

    • Support from developers of eSport games (mostly because anti-cheat systems are are all malware nowadays)
    • Hardware vendors will usually ship minimal drivers, which may be a plus since most driver suites are obnoxious nowadays. If you want shit like Shadowplay you'll have to set it up with OBS instead, YMMV
    • VR is apparently still terrible but I haven't played with that myself
    • If you're into crazy/obscure modding of games, you might find that half the tooling just doesn't work

    I only care about the 4th thing personally and I find it's still 100% worth not having to deal with Windows universally sucking and being made deliberately worse every year by its vendor

    Oh and, the Linux experience gets vastly better if you make sure to buy hardware that works with it
