Linux ftw!
Tell me about gaming on Linux. Most if my gaming is via Steam and I have a Steamdeck which I know runs on a flavor of Linux so it can be done. Is it fair to say that any game that runs on the Steam runs on Steam Linux?
I just got a new prebuilt with Windows 11 Pro and I've been curious about Linux for the past few months. I know the variations have gotten better over the years but haven't done too much research into it. I hear Mint and Arch quite a bit.
No, it's not that far along. A lot works, but if there's invasive DRM or anticheat then it probably won't. If you have specific games you want to play in mind check out https://www.protondb.com/
If you're curious you can just create a live USB stick to test drive it. Won't work well for gaming though.
