Please Linux, get your shit together and let me game so I can be done with this shitty operating system
I play a reasonable amount of games and have been able to play everything I play without any extra configuration and any problems, only 2 games I wanted to play didn't work like that, 1 space engineers, which I actually gave up on but it technically should work, and CoD black ops 2. Other than that @MichaelCallow is right, its more likely a game will work than not, and the times it doesn't its because the devs specifically don't want to like epic games and easy anticheat.
Please just make a fucking subsystem so I can run windows apps like the adobe suite on linux and I'm off this shitty os immediately.
This isn't an OS problem. It is a developer / publisher problem.
and the best way to entice devs is to use it and increase the userbase
I'm a machinist by trade, but ever since the 5th grade I wanted to be a game developer. Maybe I would have done it if the industry wasn't so shit and community college wasn't a joke - but along the lines of pursuing this "life dream" I learned a decent bit about computer science. In my personal experience, Linux was the most pleasant development environment dating back 15 years. Thousands of indie games get put out with Linux support every year. It isn't a problem with the development environment.
The problem if anything, is the end user marketshare. Large studios look at OS marketshare and oftentimes decide Linux isn't worth it - even though several of the most sophisticated general purpose game engines support it, and if they adhered to good software development practices, it wouldn't be much trouble at all.
they even want you to pay to use fucking software to run DVDs. good thing I knew about VLC player, but i'd bet that there are a lot of people out there who don't know about free software that does that and just buy the scam microsoft bullshit.
Windows is such a mess - it's hilarious. They split it from a monolithic division to being separated across the Azure and some team called "devices and experiences" or something whose main goal is flogging services and Surface Pros. The latter appears to be responsible for all the shit user experience, while the former is - I dunno what they're doing. Linux is the dominant platform on Azure, and they're also building infrastructure stuff with Linux.
Yeah the actual edge browser engine versions are gone lol, isn't edge just a chromium based browser now?
I wonder if they removed Google's spying features, or just layered their own spying features over it.
What even is a microsoft edge? Is it some submissive sex thing?
It’s the name internet explorer got after it faked its death
I swear I never see this kind of stuff. Is it because I have Windows 10 Education?
Oh, so it's basically a non-issue? Of course during setup the OS is going to recommend some default apps.
there's also a banner add that pops up if you go into settings that leads you to the initial setup screens. i think you have to update for it to show up
It also shows up in windows settings according to the article:

Friends don’t let friends install Windows 10, but if they have to then friends would insist upon using NTlite.
Go on...
I'm still rocking a stripped down win 7 and it's fast enough to run the vive and modded skyrim. But I'm sure I'll eventually have to upgrade for direct X compatability issues.
