    Generally curious how many people that have clung to Windows largely due to gaming have made the switch or plan to make the switch now that Valve has done such great work with Proton. I know I am certainly considering it and this is the kind of thing that will expedite that.

    • I’ve tried a few times in the past but always come crawling back to windows for gaming.

      Last time it was terrible performance in TF2 that did it, this was after battling against fstab, drivers for my sound card and GPU. Oh and USB drives also refused to work.

      Next PC build I’ll give dual booting another shot. Will certainly try to get hardware that others have reported as working.

      I still run Ubuntu with Kodi on my HTPC and that’s usually good.

        I would rather switch to Linux then miss playing two games.(I understand there’s more games that don’t work under Linux, but you understand my point). Also theres plenty of games out there.

        But that’s just me.

          As someone that’s been gaming under Linix since Steam was released for Linux, these days I’m more surprised when a game doesn’t run under Linux
